The Jumeirah Group, one of the UAE's favorite hospitality brands, recently announced its sixth luxury property set to open on Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Islands. While the Jumeirah Group is no stranger to luxe properties, this new venture will be the brand's first eco-conscious property. To accomplish this eco-friendly vision, the luxury property will work with Dubai-based Trust Your Water to reduce single-use plastics. All water in the hotel will be served in personal reusable bottles, and the hotel will be free of any plastic straws.
Aside from eco-friendly offerings, the Jumeirah Group will also include a unique animal preserve at the hotel, which will feature humpback and bottlenose dolphins, green turtles, dugongs, gazelles, grey herons, flamingos and more.
