Jumeirah Al Naseem on track for 2016 opening

The Jumeirah Group, a strategic partner of The First Group, is on track to open its newest Dubai property later this year.

Construction of the Dubai-based luxury hospitality firm’s Jumeirah Al Naseem property, described as a resort-within-a-resort, is almost complete. Guest reservations opened on March 29 for stays from October 1.

The name ‘Al Naseem’, which means a gentle wind or sea breeze in Arabic, reflects the location of the hotel on the shoreline of the Arabian Gulf and the open aspect of its design.

The 430-room hotel is set among lush, landscaped gardens and offers three large swimming pools, as well as private beach access. Guestrooms will offer walk-in rain-showers, floor-to-ceiling windows and private outdoor terraces.

Facilities will also include two banqueting rooms, each measuring 75 square metres, which will complement the existing conference and events facilities at Madinat Jumeirah.

“Bringing a fresh new feel of energy, exuberance and excitement to the Madinat complex, Jumeirah Al Naseem aims to show a different side of Dubai, appealing to discerning travellers who like to explore and may not have considered Dubai before,” said a Jumeirah spokesperson.

“It joins the grand Jumeirah Al Qasr, the peaceful and recently renovated Jumeirah Mina A’Salam and the exquisite summerhouses of Jumeirah Dar Al Masyaf, to become the fourth hotel within the Arabian Resort of Dubai.”
