Dubai South and UK-based luxury hospitality company Cheval Collection have signed an agreement to develop Cheval South Bay, a new serviced apartment and branded residence project within Dubai South’s Residential District, scheduled to open in 2030.
The development will
comprise 98 serviced hotel apartments, ranging from studios to three-bedroom
units, alongside 95 branded residences offering one-, two- and three-bedroom
layouts. The project marks Cheval Collection’s continued expansion in the Middle
East and introduces its serviced apartment and branded residence concept to
Dubai South.
The agreement was
signed at Dubai South headquarters in the presence of Nabil Al Kindi, Group CEO
of Dubai South, and Mohammed Alawadhi, CEO of Cheval Collection, alongside
senior executives from both companies.
Al Kindi said: “Our
agreement with Cheval Collection marks an important step in Dubai South’s
expansion into hospitality developments, bringing a renowned, experienced
international operator to our growing residential offering. As Dubai South
continues to develop, hospitality will play an increasingly important role in
serving the growing needs of the vibrant businesses ecosystem and visitors to
the community. Cheval South Bay will support this growth while strengthening
Dubai South’s appeal as an integrated master development.”
Alawadhi said: “Cheval
Collection is firmly established as a global leader in luxury accommodation,
including serviced hotel apartments and now branded residences, too. The Middle
East is pivotal to our expansion, and the addition of Cheval South Bay in Dubai
marks a major milestone in our continued growth in the region. This stunning
new complex bears all the hallmarks of any Cheval property: a convenient
location, beautiful residences, great amenities and impeccable service, which
all add up to unrivalled standards of living where residents have the luxury of
time, space and attention – be they long term guests, short-stayers or owners
of their own Cheval branded home.”
The project will
feature furnished apartments and residences with fully equipped kitchens,
private balconies and high-quality finishes. Facilities will include a swimming
pool, gym, residents’ lounge and dining outlets. The development will also be
pet-friendly.
Waterfront location
supports residential and retail offering
Cheval South Bay will
be situated within South Bay, a waterfront community at the centre of Dubai
South’s Residential District, featuring a one-kilometre lagoon.
The development will
also be connected to the planned South Bay Mall, providing residents with
access to retail, dining and lifestyle facilities.
The project will
become Cheval Collection’s fourth property in the UAE and sixth in the Middle
East. With its addition, the company's regional portfolio will exceed 800
units, with further developments in the pipeline.
Buyers of branded
residences will also have access to the Cheval DISCOVERY loyalty programme,
operated in partnership with Global Hotel Alliance. Benefits include rewards,
member privileges and elite status for branded residence purchasers.
The agreement follows Cheval Collection’s recent brand refresh and forms part of its wider regional expansion strategy, while supporting Dubai South’s plans to develop an integrated community combining residential, commercial, hospitality and lifestyle offerings. -TradeArabia News Service
