Slated for a 2029 opening, Rosewood Dubai will mark the brand’s first property in the emirate and will feature both a 195-key hotel and an adjacent residential offering, the inaugural Rosewood-branded residences in Dubai.
The project is being delivered in partnership with H&H, a leading developer based in the UAE, and owned by Bright Start, a distinguished real estate investment company with a curated luxury portfolio.
Rosewood’s debut in Dubai
Set within Peninsula Dubai, an upcoming destination in one of the city’s most exclusive waterfront districts, the 640,104-square-foot (9.95 hectares) project will combine contemporary architecture with curated lifestyle experiences that reflect Rosewood’s philosophy of A Sense of Place.
Radha Arora, President of Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, said: “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.”
Rosewood Dubai aims to become a cultural and social hub, offering guests and residents a collection of distinctive experiences. The hotel will feature a private beach and beach club, a dedicated wellness center, immersive art and music programming, and four dining venues.
The property will also include eight private garden villas and a specially designed Explorers Club for younger guests.
Beyond its hospitality offerings, the project introduces a high-end residential estate consisting of a tower with 63 residences and five exclusive beachfront villas. Residents will have access to amenities including a spa and movement studio, a private cinema, library, lounge, padel court, and 24-hour concierge service.
Miltos Bosinis, CEO of H&H, said: “At H&H, we consistently strive to pioneer new standards by creating developments that shape the real estate landscape of the city. 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.”
Peninsula Dubai: A new chapter in waterfront living

The realisation of Peninsula Dubai represents a pivotal asset in our portfolio, with the introduction of Rosewood Dubai further solidifying its position as a landmark destination.”
