The Jumeirah Group president and CEO has revealed plans for an expansion to its Burj Al Arab property, which celebrated its 15th anniversary last year.
Speaking at the Conde Nast Traveller Middle East Luxury Forum, Jumeirah Group president and group CEO Gerald Lawless concluded his presentation with an image of the property which showed plans for a leisure deck expansion on the side of the property.
Commenting on the image, Lawless said: “Do you notice anything strange about that particular slide?

"We have a little expansion on the Burj Al Arab island which we hope to put in place very soon.”
Though the image was not clear, it did reveal a new pool and sundeck, though the full details of the expansion are still to be announced, though the hotel's manager Ammar Hilal did announce plans for a new beach at the end of last year.
Lawless also noted that the Madinat Jumeirah waterways will be replicated with a “special lagoon” constructed within the new Al Naseem property, which is currently under construction and scheduled for completion next summer. The new lagoon will serve to expand the group’s turtle conservation and rehabilitation project.
