The UAE continues to hold a strong appeal, with a range of experiences that cater to different styles of travel. As one of Dubai's longstanding hospitality brands, our focus remains on creating stays that feel easy, personal, and genuinely reflective of the destination, allowing guests to experience a more authentic side of Dubai."

A heritage UAE brand with roots dating back to 1981, JA Resorts & Hotels is built on a legacy of nurturing hospitality and creating thoughtful experiences. Named after the original Jebel Ali Beach Hotel, the group's portfolio spans nine distinctive properties across the UAE, Indian Ocean, and Scotland —

Each with their own character, yet united by a shared spirit of generosity, authenticity, and care. In the UAE, guests can choose from a collection of meaningful stays, including the beachfront JA Beach Hotel, the spacious all-suite JA Palm Tree Court, recipient of the British Airways Holidays Customer Excellence Award, and the contemporary lifestyle-led JA Lake View Hotel, all located along the peaceful shores of Jebel Ali Beach. Over on the lively Jumeirah Beach Residence promenade, JA Ocean View Hotel offers uninterrupted views of the Arabian Gulf paired with a vibrant coastal energy. For a change of pace, JA Hatta Fort Hotel provides a mountain escape rooted in nature and discovery, while The Manor by JA in Al Furjan offers a modern business stay designed for comfort and convenience. 

 
In the Indian Ocean, the Forbes Recommended JA Manafaru offers barefoot luxury in the pristine natural Haa Alifu Atoll at the northern tip of the Maldives, a place where nature and Maldivian culture are deeply woven into every stay. 

 
Meanwhile, in Scotland, JA Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort, a grand 240-acre estate on the banks of the River Clyde near Glasgow, blends heritage architecture with modern comforts. Nearby, JA The Bruntsfield in Edinburgh offers townhouse charm and warm hospitality just steps from the city's iconic landmarks. 

 
Adding to its experience portfolio, JA Resorts & Hotels will soon launch the JA Sports & Shooting Club, a new destination for recreation and performance, opening later this year.
