    Saudi Arabia’s Emaar The Economic City (Emaar EC) has started planning and design work for the Rixos Emerald Shores resort looking out to the Red Sea coast.

    The construction firm has signed a framework cooperation agreement with the Tourism Development Fund, FTG Development Company, Albilad Investment Company, and Ekofine Holding BV to establish a SAR1.8 billion (aprox. US$480 million) closed and private investment fund for the project. The fund will be used to develop and operate the five-star resort, as well as its luxury ‘underwater villas’. It’s also on track to have a water park, beach areas, kids clubs, gyms and more than 10 F&B outlets.
    Slated for a 2023 opening, the 275,000sq m resort will be one of the largest tourism developments within the ambitious King Abdullah Economic City. The resort will include 500 keys, as well as 35 hotel villas with views of the Red Sea coast.

    The desert megacity was announced in 2005 by the late King Abdullah. Masterplanned by Emaar EC, the city is an hour’s drive from Jeddah and is equal in size roughly to Washington, DC. Once complete, it will have a population equal to that of Brussels at about two million, and have a port, residential areas, and of course, hotels.

  10. Earlier this year, Accor announced its strategic partnership with Dubai Developments to manage two properties, namely the Movenpick Grand Al Bustan and Swissôtel and Swissôtel Living Al Murooj. The upcoming Jewel of the Creek will illustrate the third property signed in less than a year.

    The new Rixos property will be located in the Jewel of the Creek, a 1-million-sq-m, mixed-use development in the Port Saeed area of Deira, in close proximity to Dubai International Airport. The project is expected to transform the location into a destination with a vibrant urban center featuring residential, commercial, hospitality, sports, entertainment recreational and marina components, which are connected to the main city area with over 7 tunnels and almost7,000 parking spaces available.
    In addition, it will offer a vast range of unique outdoor features including lavish pools, extensive landscaping and water features, with a water front promenade offering numerous retail and food and beverage outlets and an 80-berth marina.
    Further to the guests room, Rixos will showcase a variety of food and beverage outlets, a large conference centre (3,000 sq m), a commercial zone, indoor and outdoor sports facilities and fitness centre, a wellness centre, an infinity pool, an entertainment and show arena, a beach promenade, kids and teens facilities. Once completed, the project will offer 770 hotel rooms and suites.
