Developments around the Resort

We are delighted to be moving ahead and are on schedule with the extension project that will further enhance our signature property, Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa. We are pleased to announce that we are developing 4 new villas which will comprise of 74 new rooms and suites, built outside the current resort perimeter. The work on these new luxury villas has already begun and we expect to have all structural work complete by May 2012. All external finishes are due for completion by August 2012 whilst the full landscaping works and project completion is expected by the end of September, in preparation for an October opening.

The construction team will operate 7 days a week with the majority of the development work taking place between 10am and 6pm. Although the usual construction machinery will be utilised, we don’t expect this to have a noise impact on our guests, as all work will take place away from Palm Tree Court’s current villas and facilities, in a fenced off work site. With the exception of Villa 6, which will be closed during the works, no other facilities will be affected and visual disturbance will be extremely limited when at the resort. The construction site is accessed through a separate entrance and therefore there will be no direct disturbance to guests in the grounds of the resort.

Please inform guests of the ongoing works prior to their arrival; however please reiterate that there will be very limited visual and noise disturbance. As always we will continue to maintain excellent standards of service for all guests throughout their stay.

We would also like to take this opportunity to share our fantastic artist impressions of the new Premium Junior Suites that are being developed. As you will see from the attached images, the design elements and materials used will further enhance the guest experience ensuring ultimate relaxation and luxury living in a modern yet peaceful environment.

Over the coming months, we will ensure that you are frequently updated as we move forward with this exciting project and hope that you join us in embracing the future of Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa.

To Champion a Cause

Dubai, 31 July 2012 - Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa, in an effort to maintain their commitment to the environment, have appointed a senior member of the management team as their ‘CSR & Green Globe Champion’ whose role is to specifically oversee any CSR efforts. Emirati, Nada Ali was selected based on her continuous involvement in resort initiatives and was nominated by General Manager, Fredrik Reinisch. Nada has been an active member of the resort team for seven years and welcomes the new challenges that come with this new position. Nada said “Taking on the role of CSR & Green Globe Champion for a 5* resort hasn’t come without its challenges, but I believe we can and will do better. My main aim is to create awareness of our programmes, engage with and encourage our guests and ultimately change people’s perceptions”. The resort will build a committee, under Nada’s leadership, which will pull in different departments and therefore address all aspects of the resort from sustainability restrictions in the kitchens to reducing water and electricity consumption around the resort and everything in-between. Fredrik Reinisch, General Manager of Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa added “Nada Ali was the right choice for this role, simply due to her passion for looking after the environment. Following our Green Tourism Award earlier this year, we needed to take further steps to implement best practice and green initiatives. Nada has my full support and I look forward to hearing more of her ideas and suggestions”. Earlier this year, Jebel Ali Golf Resort & Spa was awarded a ‘Dubai Green Tourism Award’ by DTCM recognising the efforts the resort has made to look after the environment. The resort also sponsored a turtle as part of the EWS-WWF’s Marine Turtle Conservation Project and took part in a fish release initiative in collaboration with the Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) – Trakhees.
