Hill International (NYSE:HIL), delivering the infrastructure
of change, announced today it has been awarded a contract by RAK
Properties PJSC to provide project management services for the
5-star Anantara Resort Hotel at Mina Al Arab in the Ras Al Khaimah
Emirate. The project is tailored to guests desiring overwater
luxury in an eco-sanctuary setting and is scheduled for completion
in late 2022.
Offering stunning views of the ocean and
adjacent tidal wetlands, the 71,000 SM, 174-key resort is located
on the edge of the Eco Reserve, and takes full advantage of this
setting. Features of the hotel include custom guest rooms, suites,
water villas, and a presidential suite, as well as multiple food
and beverage options, high-end public areas, spa and fitness
center, and finely landscaped grounds and outdoor facilities. Hill
will provide project management services in support of the
hotel.
Abdo Kardous, Hill International’s Regional
President for the Middle East, explained, “Destination projects
such as the Anantara Resort are a specialty of Hill’s throughout
the Emirates and the Middle East. Our team will bring the best
practices from our resort experience to manage the construction of
RAK Properties’ latest destination successfully.”
“The return of tourism is certainly a leading
indicator that the economic recovery is underway,” says Hill Chief
Executive Officer Raouf S. Ghali. “Hill is seeing such
forward-thinking clients as RAK revive or launch high-end resort
construction through the region, and the Anantara embodies exactly
the type of luxury facilities today’s guests expect.”
