Delano Dubai to Open at Luxury Lifestyle: Not long ago, the world-famous hotel chain Ennismore revealed its grand entrance into the United Arab Emirates market under the illustrious Delano name. The hotel industry in the UAE and Ennismore have reached a new pinnacle with this decision. Delano Dubai, set to debut later this year at the scenic Bluewaters Dubai, will reimagine luxury for those who appreciate excellent workmanship, individualization, and careful attention to detail.

A historic agreement signed in 2023 between Ennismore and Dubai Holding is the basis for the decision to relocate Delano to Dubai. After last year’s smashing success of Banyan Tree Dubai at Bluewaters Dubai, this partnership will bring Dubai an even more unique premium lifestyle experience.

There are 251 rooms at the Delano Dubai, including 84 suites, and some of them have private pools, so guests may enjoy a real treat. Indulge in the finest cuisine and cocktails at this hotel, which will also have an oceanfront pool and quiet, private areas for those who want complete seclusion. Four separate culinary and drink ideas stand out: a one-of-a-kind restaurant and pool club partnership with Paris Society, a charming bakery, a restaurant with a Levantine vibe, a chic Italian spot, and a new take on Delano’s iconic Rose Bar.

Ennismore Co-CEOs Sharan Pasricha and Gaurav Bhushan were very enthusiastic about the opening, praising Delano’s history of revolutionizing five-star hospitality since its 1995 Miami debut. Using Dubai as an example, they highlighted how Delano has grown from a Miami social hub into a worldwide symbol of opulence and energy. In the next months, the partners will provide additional information about Delano Dubai, further demonstrating their dedication to raising the bar for hospitality in the area.

This was also expressed by Amit Kaushal, Group CEO of Dubai Holding, who emphasized the strategic value of the Delano Dubai in raising Dubai’s profile as a leading tourist destination. As a key component in enhancing Bluewaters Dubai’s image as a premium lifestyle destination and further establishing Dubai’s place on the world hospitality map, he emphasized the partnership with Ennismore and Banyan Group.

The Delano Dubai takes design cues from the original Delano Miami Beach and offers an elevated take on classic elegance, paired with impeccable service. Complementing the brand’s rich history with modern aesthetics, design features like the trademark “Delano white” palette use rich woods and luxurious materials. The hotel’s design philosophy invites visitors on a voyage of exploration and sensory delight through the seamless integration of interior and outdoor areas.

The existing facility will be transformed into a signature Delano destination by respected interior design firms Elastic Architects, LaBottega, and SA Consultants, in partnership with Ennismore’s in-house team. Guests will be enchanted by the Delano Dubai’s unmatched hospitality and classic elegance thanks to the careful attention to detail.

Additionally, in 2024, Ennismore will continue to extend the Delano brand globally through its strategic alliance with Cain International. The renowned Delano Miami Beach will be revitalized as part of our agreement, reinforcing its role as a beacon of elegance and luxury.

Finally, the Delano Dubai marks the beginning of a new age in UAE luxury hospitality with its combination of classic style and cutting-edge amenities. Redefining luxury living and creating exceptional experiences for its discerning guests, Delano Dubai offers flawless service, stunning decor, and unsurpassed amenities.
