Meli\u00e1 Hotels International has announced the signature of an agreement to operate the Desert Palm Dubai Hotel under its Meli\u00e1 brand. The hotel is an exclusive 160-acre urban oasis only 20 minutes from the centre of Dubai, providing 39 spacious rooms, suites and villas in an elegant retreat for the most discerning travellers, with an exclusive and authentic setting and a wide range of dining and wellness facilities as well as a variety of equestrian activities secluded amongst class polo fields.<\/p>\n

The hotel will create a new benchmark for serene sophistication in the splendid and somewhat frenetic city of Dubai. Just a short distance from the most popular tourist attractions, the resort will seamlessly combine classic Spanish elegance – of which the Meli\u00e1 brand is one of the finest ambassadors – with an oasis of uncompromising excellence and luxury. Meli\u00e1 Hotels International, a global leading resort group, has a successful and long track record in managing luxury boutique hotels worldwide, such as the Meli\u00e1 Colbert, Meli\u00e1 Champs Elys\u00e9es or Meli\u00e1 Vendome in Paris, or the Meli\u00e1 Campione and Meli\u00e1 Villa Capri in Italy, among others.<\/p>\n

The resort offers all-day dining at\u00a0Epicure<\/em>, a classic brasserie, complemented by a fresh and more informal pool service of superior quality local and international products. The\u00a0Rare\u00a0<\/em>restaurant features a wood fired grill for meat and seafood dishes, tapas and cocktails to be enjoyed while watching the matches or training sessions on the main championship polo field, while other spaces such as\u00a0RED bar and The Polo Bar<\/em>, for enjoying relaxed afternoons and the memorable desert sunsets, or the\u00a0Al Fresco Terrace<\/em>, complete the resort’s wide range of dining options.<\/p>\n

The Desert Palm Polo Club is one of the most prestigious and well-equipped clubs in the world, with four polo fields helping reinforce the position of Dubai on the international polo circuit, and premium facilities fully prepared to host the finest horses in the world.<\/p>\n

The addition of this new hotel allows Meli\u00e1 to extend its presence in Dubai, where it will soon be opening brand new ME by Meli\u00e1 and Innside by Meli\u00e1 hotels, and throughout the Middle East region, with coming hotels also in Doha and Maldives. For Gabriel Escarrer, Executive Vice President and CEO of Meli\u00e1 Hotels International, “taking over operations at this exclusive Dubai resort makes us very proud and also gives us a chance to demonstrate our proven excellence in the management of luxury urban resorts in a market to which the company is already firmly committed. Desert Palm Dubai will undoubtedly become a destination in itself to add to the growing portfolio of hotels which are ideal for people seeking perfect harmony between body and soul in a unique and authentic environment<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

This agreement is the result of the excellent collaboration of Meli\u00e1 Hotels International with the hotel’s owner, through which Meli\u00e1 is already operating three successful hotels: Meli\u00e1 Zanzibar and Meli\u00e1 Serengeti Lodge (both in Tanzania), and Meli\u00e1 Iguazu (Argentina).<\/p>\n
