Bulgari Resort Dubai — a gemstone among hotels of the world

Bulgari Resort Dubai — a city oasis created in collaboration with Meraas, the leading holding company of Dubai. Located on a man-made island in the shape of a seahorse in the Jumeira Bay and connected by a 300-meter bridge to the center of Dubai, the luxurious resort is designed for those seeking the comfort of a private residence and seclusion on the island, while being just minutes away from the city center with its rich cultural life and numerous attractions.

RESORT

The resort, covering 1.4 million square feet, is unprecedented for Bulgari in both scale and significance. Infused with the charm of small Mediterranean towns, the resort combines six buildings with 173 sea-view apartments, 15 private residences, a Beach Club, and the world’s first Bulgari Marina & Yacht Club. All hotel rooms and suites (101), as well as villas (20), are furnished with luxurious Italian furniture from leading manufacturers such as Maxalto, Flos, Flexform, and others, representing authentic Made in Italy quality. Panoramic windows in all rooms and suites provide stunning views of Dubai and the Persian Gulf, while spacious balconies allow guests to fully enjoy the breathtaking landscape.

ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN

The world-renowned Italian architectural firm Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, which has worked on all the hotels in the Bulgari Hotels & Resorts collection, designed the Bulgari Resort Dubai in a purely Italian style. Creating the building as an exquisite decoration, the architects selected rare materials distinguished by color, texture, and finish, making them sparkle, emanate beauty, and remain splendid under any conditions — creating an unparalleled example of luxurious hospitality.

Bulgari Resort Dubai is created with the meticulousness worthy of a piece of jewelry, in the perfect bay of this ideal location. The hotel building and the yacht club pavilion are the main pearls in the necklace of dazzling architectural gems located along the promenade.

SPIRIT OF ITALY

In the spirit of vintage architecture of the 1930s, architects Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel selected or custom-made every detail of the hotel to emphasize a sense of unity, comfort, and purity, as well as to establish an uncompromisingly Italian style.

Every detail of the highest quality, from the marble bath to the sculptural door handles, is meticulously integrated into a single picture. Bulgari Resort Dubai was created by one hand, in one style, and with one purpose — to combine the spirit of Italy with Bulgari's unparalleled approach to luxury.

UNCONDITIONAL LUXURY

In every creation of Bulgari, comfort occupies a central place. In the making of jewelry, the Roman jewelry house insists on ease of wear; in watches — on simplicity and reliability. For Bulgari Resort Dubai, the comfort of hotel guests is a top priority. Before Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel began their collaboration with Bulgari to create a new approach to hospitality, the architectural firm was known for constructing unparalleled premium residential buildings.

The concept comes to life in a modern design that recreates true comfort amid luxury in all their hotels and resorts. Throughout Bulgari's portfolio of properties, this new concept is manifested in such innovations as:

• square room layouts that enhance natural lighting;
• a foyer and entrance hall resembling an alcove, creating privacy and sound insulation;
• a separate dressing room with an entrance from the hallway for space separation;
• multi-sectional bathrooms divided into a large shower and boudoir;
• large private toilet areas with open baths;
• a seamless flow of life, making the hotel stay feel closer to everyday life in a private apartment.

LANDSCAPE DESIGN

Evoking the image of a Mediterranean garden, the luxurious low-rise design of Bulgari Resort Dubai creates a natural, rich, and welcoming space that contrasts with the recognizable urban, high-rise landscape of Dubai. Across the hotel grounds, local and imported plants are thriving, such as palms, olives, lemons, and rosemary, while flowers bring color and life to the shores of Jumeirah Bay. Bulgari's landscape designers brought hundreds of trees to the island, including Australian baobabs, to create a natural, lush setting, a Mediterranean garden amidst the sea.

ROOMS, SUITES, AND VILLAS

Whether guests wish to enjoy the sunset overlooking the Persian Gulf, admire the grandeur of the tallest skyscrapers in the world against the backdrop of Dubai's cityscape, or indulge in the Marina and Beach Club styled after the European Riviera, they will be offered rooms to suit every taste. Each room and suite, equipped with the latest technology, features spacious closets and a personal balcony, which is a unique characteristic of the resort in Dubai.

The space is divided into four floors and has two wings. The decor of each room or suite creates a sense of homey coziness and comfort, utilizing natural shades, natural materials, and fabrics, such as cashmere blankets by Enzo degli Angiuoni, which immediately immerse the guest in a relaxed and serene atmosphere as soon as they cross the threshold of the room. Italian designer furniture and decor details from prestigious Italian manufacturers, such as Maxalto, Flexform, Flos, B&B, are carefully selected or designed by Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, including recognizable Bulgari lamps on each bedside table and a multifunctional minibar in every room and suite.

BVLGARI SUITES

In each Bulgari suite, spanning over 120 square meters, there is a spacious living room, a luxurious bathroom adorned with marble, a separate ladies' restroom, and a small cozy study for those who need it. From the covered terrace, there is a splendid sea panorama, and it also features a wide jacuzzi where one can relax while enjoying ocean views.

VILLAS

For luxurious living, there are 20 standalone villas offered with access to the white sand beach, overlooking the resort gardens or the city panorama. Each villa has its own swimming pool with a personalized temperature setting and a place for sunbathing, as well as the services of a personal butler. Guests can choose villas with one, two, or three bedrooms. In the spacious living room, there is a marble dining table, and the modern technical equipment includes everything needed, from the gilded Devialet audio system to Master & Dynamic headphones. Every detail in the interior has been considered: exquisite fabrics and materials, from wooden decor elements on the ceilings to high-quality leather and marble.

THE BVLGARI VILLA

The Bulgari Villa, spanning 540 square meters, is the most expansive living space of the resort, offering both exquisite luxury and privacy. It features its own private beach with secured access and a magnificent oval pool. From here, guests can enjoy the sunset and breathtaking ocean views. The villa grounds include a 500 square meter garden and a wooden terrace reminiscent of a ship's deck, with changing cabanas flanking the pool. The largest villa includes three bedrooms. It is the perfect place for parties and small corporate events — the villa's kitchen can accommodate and serve up to 100 people at once.

The villa features a fully equipped bar and lounge area, making it a wonderful place for hosting celebrations and meetings. There is something for everyone here: both adults and children have the opportunity to watch movies in the home theater on a 65-inch screen. The space can be further expanded by annexing the adjacent two-bedroom villa. The spacious living room next to the bar will be a great spot for friendly or business gatherings. Above the dining table for 14, an enormous crystal chandelier hangs the entire length, allowing guests to observe the cooking process in the kitchen during meals.
