It will feature meeting facilities, entertainment and sport amenities, a variety of dining options and retail boutiques, private beachfront, and a One&Only Spa.

Kerzner International CEO Alan Leibman commented: “I am thrilled we are able to partner with Sevens Holding to develop this world-class destination. More and more visitors are discovering Bahrain for both leisure and business and I am looking forward to introducing the resort to our loyal One&Only guests and new guests alike.

“The beachfront location is remarkable and I am very confident that the resort will define ultra-luxury in Bahrain.”
