May 19 – The One & Only Palm resort will be opened on October 10 this year, it was learnt yesterday. The resort will open on the Palm Jumeirah Crescent where many such projects are currently underway. “We’re confident that we’ll meet the date. The completion from the outset was planned to be around this time. We have 1,700 workers on-site and experienced no delays,” said Michael Payne, General Manager of the project.
The project site is at the end of the Palm Jumeirah’s left side crescent on a 14-hectare plot opposite the Royal Mirage and has a 350-metre private beach. The architecture of the building was inspired by the Alhambra in Spain.
