Delano Dubai will open at the luxury lifestyle destination Bluewaters Dubai later this year, marking a significant collaboration between Ennismore and Dubai Holding. This partnership, forged last year, aims to introduce an unparalleled luxury lifestyle destination in Dubai.
The hotel promises a sanctuary for those who equate luxury with meticulous craftsmanship and tailored experiences. Delano Dubai will offer 251 guestrooms, including 84 lavish suites, some featuring private pools, alongside an ocean-front swimming pool, providing guests with privacy and luxury on the island’s serene edge.
Delano Dubai is not just about premium accommodations but also exceptional dining and mixology experiences. With four unique food and beverage outlets, including a collaboration with Paris Society, guests can look forward to a diverse culinary journey. From a chic restaurant and pool club to a Levantine-inspired eatery, an Italian dining experience, and a contemporary take on the iconic Rose Bar, the gastronomic offerings are designed to impress.
Sharan Pasricha, Founder & Co-CEO and Gaurav Bhushan, Co-CEO, Ennismore, said, “When Delano launched in Miami in 1995, it traded traditional, gilded luxury for something far more modern and understated, but equally grand. Delano pioneered the concept of lifestyle hospitality as we know it today, and we are thrilled to be bringing the iconic Delano to the forefront of global hospitality again, with a new home in Dubai – marking a major milestone in the brand’s journey. From its origins in Miami, a bustling social hub, to the new global hub of extraordinary experiences, Dubai, Delano is set to introduce a new level of luxury, discernment and vibrant energy to the city as our debut property in the region. We look forward to sharing more exciting details about Delano Dubai over the coming months.”
This opening is a part of a landmark agreement between Ennismore and Dubai Holding to enrich Dubai’s luxury lifestyle offerings, following the success of Banyan Tree Dubai at Bluewaters. Delano Dubai is poised to become a new icon of luxury in the UAE, drawing inspiration from the legendary Delano Miami Beach. See other latest hotel openings in Dubai.
Amit Kaushal, Group Chief Executive Officer, Dubai Holding, said: “The launch of Delano Dubai underscores our commitment to set new standards of excellence in luxury hospitality and strengthen Dubai’s position as a leading international tourism hub. Together with the recent opening of Banyan Tree Dubai, we are proud to mark another milestone in the evolution of Bluewaters Dubai as a luxury lifestyle destination. Our collaboration with market leaders like Ennismore and Banyan Group will continue to focus on welcoming new brands to Dubai and further enrich the city’s vibrant hospitality landscape.”
Echoing the elegance of its Miami counterpart, Delano Dubai will feature a design that combines timeless aesthetics with contemporary luxury. The use of “Delano white,” complemented by rich woods and natural materials, aims to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor spaces, fostering a connection with nature. Esteemed design firms Elastic Architects, LaBottega, and SA Consultants are tasked with transforming this vision into reality, ensuring Delano Dubai stands as a testament to sophisticated style and refined luxury.
In 2024, Ennismore entered into a long-term partnership with Cain International to drive forward the global expansion of the iconic Delano brand and reopen Delano Miami Beach.
