Baccarat Hotel and Residences
New York brand Baccarat is bringing its brand of cool to the UAE with this project, which is expected to debut in 2026. The tall tower is being designed by Studio Libeskind and 1508 London, and it’s expected to have a glass façade with brilliant views of the city’s landmarks, including the Burj Khalifa, Al Fahidi Fort, the Dubai Frame, and the Dubai Creek. Tower One will have the hotel, with 144 rooms and suites. The residences will comprise 49 rooms and four dining concepts.
Bellagio Hotel Dubai
Set to be part of the Las Vegas-inspired construction project The Island Dubai, the Bellagio will be a key addition to the project. While not much has been revealed about the Dubai version of the iconic Nevada hotel, we should expect high-end entertainment and luxury amenities throughout.
Opening date: 2028 Q2 (The Island)
Buddha-Bar Hotel and Floating Villas
The Buddha-Bar Hotel is one of several big projects coming to The Heart of Europe on World Islands. This one will only be accessible by boat and will feature a dreamy beach club, new lounges and restaurants. The hotel and floating villas will have 162 rooms and suites, as well as a luxury spa to pamper yourself on the island retreat.

Ciel Dubai Marina, Vignette Collection
The world’s tallest hotel is getting closer to completion by the day, and we can’t wait to get inside. Towering over the Marina at a staggering 365 metres, the building will also boast a rooftop infinity pool and bar overlooking Palm Jumeirah. As if that’s not enough, we’re sure the 360-degree glass observation deck, all-day dining or state-of-the-art gym will also impress.

The hotel will be set within a two-tower structure on Sheikh Zayed Road and be placed near the Museum of the Future.

Another Mediterranean-inspired hotel set to open at The Heart of Europe, you can expect more high-end luxury at this hotel.
