Slated to open in 2029, Rosewood will debut its first hotel in Dubai alongside its inaugural branded residences, developed in partnership with H&H and owned by Bright Start.
Rosewood Hotels & Resorts® is proud to announce its forthcoming debut in Dubai with the opening of Rosewood Dubai, alongside Rosewood Residences Dubai. Scheduled to open in 2029, both properties will be set in Peninsula Dubai, an upcoming landmark destination within the city’s most prestigious waterfront district. The project is owned by Bright Start, a distinguished real estate investment company with a curated portfolio spanning residential, commercial, and high-end hospitality developments, with H&H, a leading Dubai-based developer, spearheading its delivery.
Rosewood Dubai will be a living expression of the Emirate’s cultural richness and contemporary elegance, where daily life is elevated through discovery. Spanning 640,104 square feet (9.95 hectares), the project will include a 195-key hotel and eight private garden villas. Guests will enjoy a thoughtfully curated collection of experiences, from a private beach and beach club, four distinct dining venues, and a dedicated wellness center, to immersive art, music, and culinary programming that fosters curiosity and connection. For younger guests, an Explorers Club nurtures play and learning. Together, these elements shape a holistic offering designed for discerning global citizens, establishing Rosewood Dubai as a dynamic cultural and social hub along the coastline.
Marking a major milestone for the brand, the project will introduce an elevated lifestyle experience that thoughtfully blends Rosewood’s world-renowned hospitality with a collection of high-end residences, creating a remarkable location curated to inspire enriched living in the region. Set along the pristine sands of Jumeirah Beach, overlooking Dubai’s iconic skyline, Rosewood Dubai will unveil a residential estate defined by masterful design and contemporary architecture that seamlessly integrates its beachfront location and incorporates subtle tributes to local culture in its design. Creating a residential tower adjacent to the hotel, comprising 63 refined residences and five highly exclusive beachfront villas, residents will benefit from tailored amenities including a 24-hour concierge, spa and movement studio, padel court, private cinema, library, and lounge.
“Our vision is to create an ultra-luxury destination that is not only anchored in exceptional design and service but also in human connection and purpose. Rosewood Dubai is a vital part of our expansion in the Middle East and will reflect our A Sense of Place® philosophy, celebrating the city’s vibrant energy while offering a new expression of modern luxury lifestyle.” Radha Arora, President, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts.
More than a hospitality and residential destination, the project redefines modern luxury as a journey of connection, cultural immersion, and personal fulfillment. Through its ultra-luxury positioning, Rosewood Dubai will curate transformative experiences that spark discovery, foster meaningful relationships, and deepen the bond between guests, residents, and the city they call home.
“At H&H, we consistently strive to pioneer new standards by creating developments that shape the real estate landscape of the city. We are incredibly excited to bring a world-renowned brand like Rosewood to Dubai, specifically to Peninsula Dubai, a landmark destination we are developing that will redefine the Dubai waterfront. Our aim with Rosewood Dubai is to offer something truly unique – blending architectural and design genius, the inherent prestige of the Rosewood brand, the bespoke amenities of both the hotel and the residences, and the one-of-a-kind experience this distinctive destination provides.” Miltos Bosinis, Chief Executive Officer, H&H.
“Our commitment extends beyond redefining industry standards; we are dedicated to generating substantial value and contributing strategically to Dubai’s growth. The realization of Peninsula Dubai represents a pivotal asset in our portfolio, with the introduction of Rosewood Dubai further solidifying its position as a landmark destination. Rosewood’s global reputation for highly personalized luxury is a key driver for the project’s premium positioning and investor appeal. This partnership aligns perfectly with our strategic vision: to bring truly exceptional living and hospitality experiences to Dubai and build a lasting legacy for this dynamic city.” Shahab Lutfi, Chief Executive Officer, Bright Start.
