Jumeirah Group’s first luxury eco-conscious resort has debuted along the shores of Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi. The Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort sits at the threshold of 1,312 feet of white sand frequented by indigenous wildlife.
The sustainable retreat overlooks the Arabian Gulf and is home to handsomely crafted, modern interiors flooded with natural light. Panoramic suites are outfitted with floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies, while private two-, three-, and four-bedroom duplex villas are appointed with private pools. Three outdoor infinity pools are installed onsite along with a children’s pool and the Bodyism Wellness Center.
Spread across nearly 30,000 square feet, the resort’s spa features a grand Moroccan hammam, 15 treatment rooms, saunas, hydrotherapy pools, steam rooms, salt rooms, experience showers, and a traditional Arabic rasul room. F&B options include the Levantine-inspired TEAN, the poolside Italian concept Mare Mare, and all-day restaurant White.
In addition to preserving the island’s sand dunes, Jumeirah also partnered with Dubai-based water treatment company Trust Your Water to reduce its use of single-use plastics. Guests are each given personal reusable bottles available for refill at onsite water stations.
