MUMBAI - Taj Hotels Resorts and Palaces is to develop
and manage the Taj Exotica Resort & Spa in Dubai's Palm
Island.
When it opens in 2007, it will complement the existing
Taj Palace Hotel in Dubai as well as its properties
elsewhere in the Middle East - Taj Sheba Hotel, Sana`a in
Yemen and the Sohar Beach Hotel in Oman.
With its location on The Palm, the 220-room resort would
offer part views of the ocean, Burj Al Arab and the Dubai
skyline.
Taj said the hotel would "draw inspiration from the
palaces of India and weave in influences that have
characteristics of the Middle East and West Asian
region".
