Construction will soon begin on Bahrain’s first Marriott Executive Apartments in the Juffair District of Manama. Costing BD17 million ($45 million), the twin-towered building is all set to redefine Juffair’s skyline, says the spokesman for the developer.

Each tower will consist of 21 floors and 94 apartments, offering long-stay visitors to the kingdom a choice of 188 elegantly appointed apartments ranging in size from one to three-bedroom units. When completed in 2007, the property will be managed by Marriott International.
The project will be built on 65,000 sq ft of land, approximately 5 km from the city centre and 10 km from Bahrain International Airport, near Al Fateh Highway.
Final contracts for the property were signed by Gulf Touristic Projects chairman Sheikh Hisham bin Abdulrahman bin Mohammed Al Khalifa and Al Hamad Construction and Development Company chairman Hashaat Sahwawneh.
In addition to accommodation, the Bahrain Marriott Executive Apartments will offer a coffee shop and a resident’s lounge. Recreational amenities will include a health and leisure club and an outdoor rooftop swimming pool. Other amenities will include a business centre, room service, a shopping service, laundry and valet services, parking and a gift shop.
