Dubai’s World Islands is now home to a new luxury hotel, the Cote d’Azur Monaco.
Located at The Heart of Europe on the World Islands, the new hotel hosted a soft launch wherein customers experienced a “stunning landscape, vibrant energy and enchanting hospitality,” the Kleindienst Group said in an emailed statement on Tuesday.
Cote d’Azur Monaco, a five-star hotel, is set to offer guests luxury entertainment and a quality atmosphere.
“From world-class dining experiences to luxurious spa treatments and much more, Cote d’Azur Monaco offers its guests a truly unique holiday experience. The Kleindienst Group is elated to be introducing Cote d’Azur Monaco to the world and looks forward to many more joyous occasions with its exclusive guests,” the statement added.
The Cote d’Azur Resort at the $5 billion Heart of Europe leisure tourism destination off the coast of Dubai will also be home to the Middle East’s largest swimming pool, measuring 12,000 square metres.
Grand Azur – which translates as ‘big blue’ – has a perimeter of more than 1km and contains 14,000 cubic metres of sustainably-desalinated water.
Grand Azur is clever as well as big, using solar energy to illuminate, recycle, heat and cool the eco-friendly water, developer Kleindienst, previously said in a statement.
The epic pool will form the watery heart of the Côte d’Azur Resort and includes four connected blue water lagoons, shaped as rolling waves, with a white edge that emulates the Mediterranean’s natural froth.
While Olympic-sized pools are 50m in length, Grand Azur is eight times larger, dwarfing every leisure pool in the Middle East. Water temperature will be maintained at 28° Celsius courtesy of solar-powered pumps.
