After spas, sports, and the sun? It is all a 15-minute boat ride from Dubai’s mainland. When you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life in the UAE, you do not have to board a plane. Instead, you can soon board a boat to the World Islands and verify into Zuha Island, a private island resort.

The UAE completes megaproject after megaproject, however, The World Islands may be its most ambitious to date. The 300 artificial islands shaped like the world’s continents, and so this new private island appears to be one of the most exclusive. Even though Zuha Island will not open until 2024, we are already excited by the prospect. The same company that built Abu Dhabi’s Nurai Island and promises to be a peaceful getaway developed it.

Zuha Island, which is 15 minutes from the Dubai mainland, will have 30 villas with one, two, or three bedrooms, as well as 70 resort villas right on the water. The size and amenities of the villas vary; some have a private beach, pool, and plot of land. Zuha Island will make you feel like you are a world (island) away from the bustle of Dubai. Because it exudes a boutique retreat vibe. A spa, healing center, beach club, and community pool will be on the property. A special kids’ club will also be available.

There will be plenty of opportunities for watersports. Such as a paddle tennis court that floats, and a gym for people who want to stay active. There will also be a ceviche bar and an all-day restaurant there. Anantara World Islands Dubai Resort is already located on The World Islands. In addition, The Heart of Europe’s hotel Côte d’Azur Monaco is set to open soon. Other construction projects on the island include Sweden Beach Palace, Floating Seahorse Villas, Honeymoon Island, and the Portofino Hotel resort. Unimaginable possibilities lie ahead.
