Architectural Marvel on the Arabian Gulf
Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab stands as the crown jewel of Dubai’s exclusive Jumeirah coastline, nestled between the wave-shaped Jumeirah Beach Hotel and the sail-inspired Burj Al Arab. Designed by Shaun Killa to mirror a sleek super-yacht, its sweeping terraces and sculptural curves seamlessly integrate with the Arabian Gulf panorama. This visionary architecture not only celebrates movement and grace but also offers uninterrupted views of two of Dubai’s most iconic landmarks.
Location and Setting: Prime Peninsula Positioning
Sited on a newly reclaimed 2.2 km private peninsula in Umm Suqeim 3, Marsa Al Arab is part of a $1.7 billion waterfront development. Guests enjoy direct beachfront access, serene seaside solitude, and convenient connectivity to Madinat Souk, Wild Wadi Waterpark, and Downtown Dubai via electric buggies or a scenic coastal promenade—making it one of the most sought-after Dubai beachfront resorts.
