The venue will "feature several restaurants across four floors, each equipped with dedicated lifts and enclosed terraces for year-round dining while the rooftop will showcase a cantilevered pool, offering panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai skyline."
Designed to connect both residents and visitors with Dubai Harbour’s maritime spirit, The Anchor blends luxury with an authentic seafront experience. As a central hub in the area’s food and beverage scene, it provides direct access to the open sea, allowing guests to arrive by land or boat. The marina features "over 700 berths for various vessels, including superyachts."
