Bluewaters Island is an artificial island 400 metres (1,300 ft) off the Jumeirah Beach Residence coastline, near Dubai Marina, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
The project was approved by Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, and unveiled on February 13, 2013.[2][3] It is built on reclaimed land by Meraas Holding, with dredging work conducted by Van Oord,[4] the Dutch firm known for its work on Palm Jumeirah, at an estimated cost AED 6 billion (1.6 billion USD, including the Ain Dubai, formerly the Dubai Eye).[1] Construction was originally due to start in April 2013,[2] but actually began on May 20, 2013.[1] It opened in November 2018.[5]
The island includes entertainment, hospitality, residential, and retail zones, and is forecast to attract more than three million visitors annually.[2][3]
The island is home to Banyan Tree Dubai, formerly Caesars Palace Dubai, a five-star resort which re-opened under the new flag in November 2023 [1]. Bluewaters also has around 200 beverage and retail and food outlets in the ground level of residential buildings and entertainment section of the island.[6] The total number of residential buildings on the island is 10. Each of these is considered mid-rise and features 15 storeys or fewer.[7]
