We are excited to share that Whatson.ae has featured an exclusive preview of our latest project—the Marbella Resort Hotel. Set to open in the first quarter of 2026, this Spanish-inspired luxury hotel is poised to bring the charm of Marbella to Dubai’s World Islands.
Only a short speedboat ride from Jumeirah Fishing Village, the Marbella Resort Hotel will be the first Collection hotel on the World Islands, offering an unparalleled experience of Spanish living within Dubai’s iconic The Heart of Europe development. Surrounded by lush gardens, sunken courtyards, citrus and olive groves, this Dh1 billion, five-star hotel will bring the ambiance of Andalusia to Dubai’s shores.
Guests can choose from 157 exquisite accommodations, including suites, chalets, and cabanas with stunning views of the sea, our one-of-a-kind Snow Plaza, or the unique one-kilometer-long raining street that will refresh guests with a cooling downpour every few minutes.
Dining at the Marbella Resort Hotel promises to be an experience like no other. With six restaurants to choose from, guests can indulge in a variety of authentic European cuisines. At Descanso, enjoy live cooking stations and signature sangrias; Casa Bougainville offers delicate tapas, while The Citrus Gem serves light bites, pastries, and traditional Spanish coffee. For those who prefer beachfront dining, Arenda Dorada will bring the vibes of Marbella’s beach clubs to Dubai, offering a relaxed yet chic beach and poolside restaurant setting.
For a truly unique experience, our Snow Plaza will create a snowy wonderland year-round, complete with Challet Sierra, an après-ski-themed chalet that provides an authentic mountain ambiance in the heart of Dubai. To add to the vibrant atmosphere, the Carmen Amaya Bodega Bar, named after the legendary Spanish Flamenco dancer, will transport guests into an authentic Spanish Bodega Bar experience, filled with passion and tradition.
Beyond dining and unique experiences, the Marbella Resort Hotel will also offer a luxurious spa, providing our guests with a wellness escape that captures the essence of Spain.
