The latest chapter in Jumeirah's Dubai legacy

When it comes to five-star hotels in Dubai, Jumeirah is more than a familiar name: it’s a hallmark of refined Emirati hospitality. With a global reputation built on excellence, the brand’s latest opening in the country, Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab, signals a bold new chapter in its evolution. Innovation meets legacy in spaces designed to surprise even the most seasoned luxury traveller, while staying true to the brand's trademark warmth, elegance and style. Nowhere is this innovation more evident than in its curated dining scene. From avant-garde menus to immersive atmospheres, the resort is set to become a culinary destination in its own right, raising the bar for Dubai’s gourmet landscape.

Here's what our Managing Director, David Ox, had to say about the hotel's mouthwatering food scene: “Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab is Dubai’s most exciting new hotel for 2025. 

"Set on the beachfront with striking views of the Burj Al Arab on one side and Downtown Dubai on the other, it blends city buzz with resort-style serenity. 

"But the real headline? The food. With 11 restaurants spanning global cuisines, every meal felt like a journey. Kira, a Japanese-Mediterranean concept, stood out for its bold yet balanced flavours, while The Cullinan delivers one of the best steakhouse experiences I’ve had.

"Whether you’re in town for business or travelling with family, this property ticks every box; stylish, vibrant and full of culinary surprises."
