Wynn Resorts’ US$5.7 billion UAE integrated resort project, Wynn Al Marjan Island, has unveiled details of Wynn Marina – a 98-berth superyacht marina that the company says will have capacity to accommodate more yachts and larger vessels than any hotel-attached marina in the UAE.
According to a Monday release, Wynn Marina will represent a new kind of waterfront experience, connecting those arriving by sea directly with the resort while creating a vibrant setting for guests and visitors.
“Wynn Marina has been conceived as a direct extension of Wynn Al Marjan Island,” said Max Tappeiner, President of Wynn Al Marjan Island. “Guests will move effortlessly between life on the water and experiences throughout the resort, from dining and entertainment to accommodations and waterfront amenities. It is not simply a place to berth a yacht, but an integral part of the destination.”
Wynn Marina will boast a distinctive circular harbor that Wynn says will transform the conventional marina layout into a defining feature of the resort. It will be visible from surrounding accommodations, terraces, restaurants and promenades, creating an ever-changing backdrop of yachts, waterfront activity and Arabian Gulf sunsets.
The company added that Wynn Marina will accommodate super and megayachts of up to 85 meters in length while connecting visiting vessels directly with the wider resort experience.
It will be overseen by Fort Lauderdale-based IGY Marinas – the goal being to combine industry-leading harbor management with Wynn’s luxury approach to hospitality. Wynn explained that an area called Capitainerie will mark the center of the marina and serve as the arrival point and operational hub for visiting yachts, bringing together marina operations, guest services, concierge support and captain services under one roof. Guests will be able to check in onboard and directly access the resort’s accommodations, dining, entertainment, wellness and retail experiences.
The marina will also offer a lively waterfront destination for resort guests and visitors, from dining beside the harbor to strolling the promenade or watching yachts arrive, Wynn said.
