If you live in Dubai Marina this announcement is going to hurt you the most – the all-popular Dubai Marina Yacht Club is closing down.
Don’t worry it won’t be happening straight away, but from January 2017 one of the Marina’s favourite hotspots for the past eight years is closing down and will be replaced by a new facility, which according to developer Emaar Properties will include a “world-class yacht club.”
Dubai Marina Yacht Club is one of of those local institutes that is busy all year round thanks to it’s premium views, generous ladies’ nights and upbeat Friday brunches, so the news has come as a shock to many residents.
Work on the replacement development, which will continue to provide marina-related services, will begin in the first quarter of 2017.

According to a statement by Emaar to The National: “Visitors can also enjoy all charter services as normal with the bookings to be made from the new office. All club-related services and the operations of lifestyle, [food and beverage] and commercial amenities at the existing facility will be discontinued from January.”
Emaar are being suitably brief in their statement, not revealing too much information on the new project.
What we do know for fact is that all lifestyle operations, food and beverage and commercial amenities at the existing yacht club will be discontinued.
So what does that mean to you? It means you have little over two months to make the most of the Dubai Marina Yacht Club and its restaurants and deals. Enjoy breakfast at 25°55° Café Bistro and brunch under the stars at Aquara.
