Emaar opens Umm Al Quwain Marina Presentation Centre

UMM AL QUWAIN — Shaikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Mualla, Director, Office of the Crown Prince of Umm Al Quwain, on Thursday, inaugurated the presentation centre of Umm Al Quwain Marina. The Dh12 billion ($3.3 billion), project is developed by Umm Al Quwain Marina LLC, a joint venture between the government of Umm Al Quwain and Emaar Middle East.

Opening the Presentation Centre, Shaikh Maktoum said that Umm Al Quwain Marina marks the start of a new era of economic prosperity for the emirate and having Emaar as the joint venture partner will ensure the creation of a world-class development.

Umm Al Quwain Marina will feature over 8,000 homes, boutique hotels, retail outlets and recreational facilities set in a marina-themed environment. On sale are Mistral villas, a series of Spanish and Portuguese-styled homes. The two-storey, three- to four-bedroom villas are 3,458 to 4,311 sq ft in size with prices starting at Dh2.04 million.

"Umm Al Quwain Marina is a perfect fit to the growth strategies of the emirate, and with the opening of the Presentation Centre, these plans are taking concrete shape. We are confident that the project will boost the local economy," said Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Mualla, Chairman of Umm Al Quwain Marina LLC.

Mr Ahmad Al Matrooshi, UAE Managing Director, Emaar Properties and member of the board of directors of Emaar Middle East, said, "The early investor response is very encouraging. With Umm Al Quwain Marina, we are creating a truly world-class development that will boast the same standards of our Dubai projects."
