PALAZZO VERSACE DUBAI Palazzo Versace Dubai is a luxury hotel and resort located on the foreshore of the Dubai Creek, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. UAE developer ENSHAA created it in conjunction with Versace. The 215 suites and the 169 exclusive condominiums together with several signature restaurants, a spa and the sophisticated range of Versace Home Collection products are brought together to create the Palazzo Versace Dubai – a truly unique lifestyle location.

The Palazzo Versace Dubai is the second Versace resort property in the world; the first opened in 2000, and is located on the Gold Coast, Australia.

On the occasion of the grand opening event, Versace has brought its couture collection to Dubai for the first time ever, straight from the runway in Paris. Versace will be taking private appointments throughout the week, so that the Emirates clientele may meet with the Versace Atelier team in person and review the collection. The esteemed couturiers from Milan will be on premise at Palazzo Versace for this exclusive occasion. Versace will donate a portion of the couture orders from this week to Dubai Cares, a philanthropic organization created by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, working to improve access to quality primary education for children in developing countries.

Donatella Versace said, “I am so excited to host the Grand Opening of Palazzo Versace Dubai. I visited the hotel prior to opening, and was amazed by its beauty. This truly is a luxury destination second to none in the world. I’ve also been excited to bring our couture collection Raza Jafar, CEO of the Enshaa group and Chairman of Palazzo Versace Dubai, said, “Our Chairman Sheikh Tariq bin Faisal al Qassimi, myself, our shareholders and the management of ENSHAA have been delighted to welcome our Highnesses, excellences, Donatella Versace as well as our friends and supporters for the grand opening of our luxurious hotel.
