Dream Island, mini Ibiza, one of four in the $1 billion Al Marjan Island development, is being promoted as a venue that will rival one of Europe’s biggest party capitals.
“We’re trying to make it the new Ibiza – a mini Ibiza dedicated solely to partying,” George Saad, sales and marketing director at Al Marjan Island, told the Daily Mail.
Saad was speaking at the Dubai Property Show in London’s Kensington Olympia, where the developers of the third of four islands that make up Al Marjan are looking to attract $4.9 billion of investment.
The 370,000 square metres Dream Island, which will not feature any homes, is expected to be completed by 2018.
Located 27km south-west of Ras Al Khaimah city centre, the four islands of Al Marjan stretch nearly three miles out into the sea and cover an area of 2.7 million square metres. The entire development comprises four coral-shaped islands that include a range of marina homes floating villas, hotels, resorts, sports facilities and shopping centres.
The company behind the development has said January sales have doubled, year-on-year.
