Now, with the addition of the Eastern Mangroves Suites, we are confident that the development will attract a wider niche in the housing and travel markets,” said Ali Al Hammadi, Deputy Managing Director of TDIC.
Located along Abu Dhabi’s protected waterfront, the Eastern Mangrove Suites will offer unobstructed scenes of lush green mangroves naturally thriving on the edge of the Arabian Gulf waters with Abu Dhabi’s skyline dramatically framing its background. Available for lease, holiday escapes and business travels, the suites are an ideal destination for potential residents, individuals and families seeking a luxury-based retreat, and business travelers who require access to the latest technology while enjoying high-end hospitality services.
‘’We are thrilled to be given the opportunity to manage the Eastern Mangroves Suites and to be associated with TDIC. As a home-grown operator, we aim to provide guests with the highest standard of Emirati hospitality, which is not only what visitors have come to expect, but is also much needed in this fast growing industry,” said Nehme Imad Darwiche, Chief Executive Officer, Jannah Hotels & Resorts.

Incorporating rich textures and rustic, natural elements with contemporary designs, each suite is fitted with custom designed woodworks, among them mangrove scenes.
