Developer serves up more leisure and recreation options at world-famous island destination

Dubai, 10 October 2016 

Cuisine from across the globe is on the menu at Club Vista Mare, Nakheel’s AED120 million beachfront contemporary dining and leisure complex, now open on Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah.

Club Vista Mare – the latest project in Nakheel’s AED20 billion hospitality and retail expansion – features seven new and unique restaurants, all set directly on the beach with views of The Palm’s eastern shoreline and some of Dubai’s world-famous landmarks. Cuisine on offer includes Italian, Middle Eastern, European, American Nikkei (Peruvian-Japanese) and Ethiopian through a variety of new brands.

Nestled between the Shoreline Apartments and Tiara Residences on the eastern side of the island, Club Vista Mare spans 50,000 sq ft and can seat 2,000 guests at a time.  Each restaurant has indoor and outdoor terrace seating, with some featuring space directly on the beach. Around 250 parking spaces are available. Details are:

·         Breeze – beach grill concept including raw bar and deli-counter

·         Aji (pronounced ‘ah-hee’)  – Japanese-Peruvian (Nikkei) cuisine

·         Ibn Al Bahr – premium seafood restaurant

·         Abyat – traditional Arabic food

·         The Tap House – modern European cuisine and American comforts

·         Simply Italian – traditional Italian fare

·         Gursha – the first Ethiopian restaurant in the area

Nakheel Chairman Ali Rashid Lootah said: “Club Vista Mare is yet another unique addition to our ever-growing range of new projects at our flagship project, Palm Jumeirah.  We have delivered an exceptional new venue that offers a diverse collection of dining options in a stunning setting, and further enhances Palm Jumeirah’s position as a world-leading destination for spectacular waterfront recreation.”

The Club Vista Mare F&B complex complements Palm Views East and West, two other Nakheel-owned restaurant destinations that opened on Palm Jumeirah last year. Nakheel also operates clubs at Jumeirah Islands and Jebel Ali, with more on the way.
