The property is Hilton's first residential offering in Dubai, and builds on the leading hotel brand's 14 established properties in the Arabian Peninsula.

The Hilton Jumeirah Beach Residence is owned by A.A Almoosa Enterprises, and is managed by Hilton International.

'Dubai is undoubtedly the region's most thriving leisure destination and a global hot spot. We are thrilled to introduce our first residential venture in this cosmopolitan city,'



said Ian Carter, Chief Executive International Operations, Hilton Hotels Corporation (HHC) and Executive Vice President, HHC. 'Located just minutes away from the golden sandy beaches of the Dubai Jumeirah strip, and offering a complete lifestyle experience away from home, the Hilton Jumeirah Beach Residence will become a premier place to stay for leisure and business travellers.'

Linked with a bridge to Hilton's existing Dubai beach property, Hilton Dubai Jumeirah Resort, the new Residence is part of the exclusive Jumeirah Beach Residence complex, the world's largest single phase project of its kind.

Nestled in the heart of what is now dubbed New Dubai, the complex is a vision of architectural excellence.

'The signing of this new Residence property further strengthens our existing partnership with Hilton, and we are delighted to continue working together. Hilton brings tremendous management expertise, and we are confident this development will be a huge success,' said Abdulla Almoosa, Chairman of A.A Almoosa Enterprises.

The 44-storey Hilton Jumeirah Beach Residence tower reflects a fusion of Arabesque and Mediterranean design elements, resulting in a truly eye-catching landmark overlooking the coastline.

The Residence will open with 371 guest rooms and apartments, each complementing different guests' needs. Apartment types range from one-bedroom right through to four-bedroom, including five loft and two penthouse apartments.

Dining facilities include an all-day restaurant, a speciality cuisine restaurant as well as a bar. To complete the residential experience, the complex also offers a health club, swimming pool and garage parking.

The Residence will complement Hilton's two existing properties in Dubai, Hilton Dubai Jumeirah Resort and Hilton Dubai Creek, in addition to the Hilton Jumeirah Beach Club opening in 2008.
