Located in Dubai, One&Only One Za’abeel, the first-ever vertical urban resort from the hospitality group, is set to welcome guests from December 1, 2023. Rising above the city’s Za’abeel neighborhood, overlooking Dubai’s skyline, the resort is located in the One Za’abeel development; its dual skyscrapers are intersected by the world’s longest cantilever, The Link—a boulevard floating 328 feet above the street.
Another first for One&Only is its collection of corner suites. The Grand Panoramic Suites offer 180-degree views of Dubai’s skyline; the Sanctuary Suites include a massage table, meditation and stretching zone, exercise equipment and in-room spa treatments; and the Creative Suites have acoustic paneling and the latest AV technology.
One of the top options, the Royal Suite offers three living areas, including a lounge with standalone bar, a dining area with seating for 10 guests and a private sitting room. The resort will also introduce a series of two-story spaces, including the Sama Signature Duplex Suite and Villa One. Spread over 8,127 square feet, the Villa One penthouse is a "contemporary Arabian reinvention of One&Only’s signature beach villas." It houses two bedrooms, a majlis (reception lounge), outdoor infinity pool, cinema and a gym; it also offers exclusive benefits including a dedicated host, in-villa personal training and spa treatments, and access to a private chef.
One&Only One Za’abeel Private Homes are also housed within this development. These branded residences offer access to an exclusive community and a network of privileges right at their doorstep.
The Link is inspired by the restaurant-lined streets of New York and Hong Kong. This floating boulevard will house culinary concepts from Michelin-lauded chefs including Anne-Sophie Pic, Bo Songvisava and Dylan Jones, Mehmet Gürs, Paco Morales and Tetusya Wakuda. It’s also home to an all-day dining restaurant and nightlife venue named Sphere. Atop The Link is One&Only’s homegrown beach club concept Tapasake, where guests can enjoy an infinity pool, plush cabanas, cocktails and contemporary Japanese-Peruvian cuisine.
On Level Four, The Garden brings the al fresco lifestyle of a beach resort to an urban vertical setting, with a lagoon-style family swimming pool and a swim-up bar. The Garden level will offer StreetXO by Dabiz Muñoz and an Indonesian concept, Andaliman.
The resort will also have a Spa Clinic, fitness hub, KidsOnly Club and luxury retail boutiques, with a collection of fashion, fragrances, and accessories. One&Only One Za’abeel will also offer two ballrooms, six meeting rooms, a private club on the 53rd floor,and an events lawn at The Garden, overlooking the city.
One Za’abeel is within walking distance of Dubai World Trade Centre and Za’abeel Park, and just 10 minutes’ drive from DIFC, Downtown Dubai, Business Bay, Dubai International Airport, and popular attractions including the Museum of the Future, the Dubai Mall, Dubai Frame and more.
