luxury nature retreat, bahraini island, abu dhabi, uae

Scope: Master plan and Architecture (100-key hotel suites & villas)

A Private Sovereign Island
This Luxury Nature Retreat will be set in stunning Bahraini Island, a private island belonging to the Al Khalifa royal family. It is accessible only by boat and is a 2-minute ride from Abu Dhabi. The site commands extensive views of the sea, the bays on the island and its inland sand dunes. Safari and sea co-exist naturally, allowing two of nature's best offerings to be found in one destination.

Royal Hunting Lodge
Its superb geographical superiority inspires the design which is centred on the concept of a royal hunting lodge. Its unique offerings include a private gazelle park, as well as falconry interests such as falcon rearing, training and annual releases - inspired by the deep-rooted tradition of hunting by the royal sheikhs.

The natural pristine setting allows for an extraordinarily luxurious retreat straddling between a diverse inland landscape and a coastal oceanic bay.  Savannah Garden Villas, Beachside Villas and Sea Villas will enable various resort experiences in a sanctuary where falcon releases and gazelle sightings will enthrall.
