JA Hotels set to open first overseas property

UAE-based hospitality company JA Resorts & Hotels are set to make their international debut with the launch of its Enchanted Island Resort in the Seychelles.

The exclusive 10-villa resort, located on a private island off the coast of the Seychelles, is poised to welcome guests starting from December 20 2013.

JA Resorts & Hotels COO David Thomson comments: “The Seychelles has long been a preferred destination for world travellers seeking a true island paradise experience. The Enchanted Island Resort offers just that, with a handful of limited edition villas and a unique location that fulfils the luxury five-star brief but which is sympathetic to the environment and to the stunning natural beauty of the island.”

Each private villa on the island is fitted with its own private infinity pool, outdoor deck and rain shower as well as direct access to the beach.

Facilities include two food and beverage outlets, a shared swimming pool and complementary use of snorkelling equipment and kayaks. Guests can also rent the whole island for up to 24 guests.

The Enchanted Island Resort was originally slated to open on August 1 2013.
