Dubai never sits still when it comes to hotels. Just when you think the city can’t squeeze in another five-star name, a new one lands—and this one’s a beauty. Enter The Dubai Beach EDITION, set to take over the coveted plot at the entrance of Dubai Harbour. If you’ve been to Zero Gravity beach club, that’s the exact spot. By 2029, the party will have moved further down JBR Beach, and in its place? A sleek hotel-meets-residences project that’s already turning heads.

Let’s face it, Zero Gravity has had a good run. But in practice, Dubai’s always about the next big thing. The Dubai Beach EDITION is Marriott International and Shamal Holding’s latest brainchild, and it’s bringing a slice of contemporary cool right where JBR meets the marina.
This isn’t just another tower with shiny glass. EDITION Hotels have a reputation for design-led spaces that mix sophistication with a certain understated swagger. Truth be told, it’s less about bling and more about vibe. That’s probably why the brand’s second UAE outpost is already being hyped as the next “it” staycation spot.
Rooms With Views
The property promises 185 rooms and suites, all facing the Arabian Gulf. Not a bad way to wake up, right? Each room will channel EDITION’s signature—clean lines, clever design, and that “you know it when you see it” sense of luxury. Come on, we all know Dubai does views well, but this one feels like it’ll deliver the whole package.
EDITION Residences: First Time In The Region
Here’s the real twist: it won’t just be a hotel. The Dubai Beach EDITION will debut the brand’s first residences in the region. We’re talking 165 two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments. Think modern luxuries, refined interiors, and the kind of five-star service EDITION regulars already expect. The developers are keeping pricing under wraps for now—no surprise there—but expect a hefty tag when they finally reveal the numbers.
Homeowners will get premium resort-style perks too, which means it won’t just be an address, it’ll be a lifestyle. To be fair, that’s pretty much Dubai’s property game these days: if it doesn’t wow, it doesn’t fly.

Another Jewel In Dubai’s Ever-Growing Crown
The EDITION announcement isn’t happening in isolation. Dubai’s hotel pipeline is, frankly, wild. In the next few years, we’ll see Ciel Dubai Marina opening as the world’s tallest hotel, a second Mandarin Oriental in Downtown, and heavyweights like Corinthia, Dorchester Collection, Aman, and Rosewood joining the skyline.
It’s almost dizzying how fast these launches come, but that’s Dubai. Always raising the bar. Always adding new bragging rights. And honestly? The Dubai Beach EDITION fits right in.
