A New Luxury Island in Dubai to Host Region’s First Cheval Blanc Hotel
Naïa Island is a new low-rise luxury project emerging on Jumeirah beachfront, featuring private beaches, exclusive villas and the first Cheval Blanc Maison residences in the region.

Naïa Island, a new low-rise private island off the coast of Jumeirah, is set to welcome the Gulf’s first Cheval Blanc Maison—the ultra-luxury hospitality brand by LVMH.
Slated to open in 2029 and developed by Dubai-based Shamal Holding, the exclusive island destination will feature 30 suites and 40 private pool villas under the Cheval Blanc name, alongside a limited release of branded residences and estate plots. All properties will offer direct beach access and full access to the Maison’s amenities.
Encircled by the Arabian Gulf, Naïa Island is being designed with a focus on coastal preservation and barefoot luxury. Plans include a private marina, wellness centre, and a selection of dining concepts woven into the natural landscape.
Part of Dubai’s expanding shoreline vision, Naïa joins destinations like Jumeirah Bay Island and Bluewaters—but marks a first-of-its-kind arrival for the region.
