										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sharjah Collection has once again demonstrated its leadership in sustainable and experiential tourismearning eight prestigious titles at the 2025 World Luxury Awards across both regional and global categories.</p>



<span id="more-25137"></span>



<p>This outstanding achievement recognizes <strong>Kingfisher Retreat</strong>, <strong>Al Badayer Retreat</strong>, <strong>Al Faya Retreat</strong>, and <strong>Wishi Restaurant at Najd Al Meqsar</strong>, solidifying Sharjah Collection’s status as a global benchmark for eco-luxury, cultural authenticity, and meaningful travel experiences.</p>



<p><strong>8 awards celebrating hospitality excellence</strong></p>



<p>At this year’s ceremony, <strong>Kingfisher Retreat</strong> in Kalba was named <em>Best Luxury Eco Resort in the Middle East</em> and <em>Best Luxury Sustainable Resort in the Middle East</em>, honoring its pioneering model of eco-conscious hospitality within Sharjah’s protected mangrove ecosystem. Kingfisher Retreat, located along Kalba’s pristine coastline, stands as a pioneering model of sustainable coastal luxury. Nestled within a protected mangrove reserve in collaboration with the Environment and Protected Areas Authority (EPAA), the retreat features 40 sea-facing tents designed in harmony with the surrounding ecosystem.</p>



<p><strong>Al Badayer Retreat</strong>, nestled among the emirate’s golden dunes, received <em>Best Luxury Cultural Retreat in the Middle East</em> and the coveted <em>Best Luxury Desert Resort – Global Winner</em> award for its exceptional fusion of Bedouin-inspired architecture and modern comfort. In the heart of Sharjah’s red dunes, Al Badayer Retreat captures the spirit of Arabian heritage through architecture and experience. Inspired by traditional caravanserais, it offers 46 luxurious rooms and tents blending Bedouin design with modern amenities.</p>



<p><strong>Al Faya Retreat</strong>, located in the heart of Mleiha’s desert, won <em>Best Luxury Boutique Retreat in the Middle East</em> and <em>Best Luxury Wellbeing Retreat – Global Winner</em>, recognizing its minimalist design and transformative wellness experiences rooted in history and tranquility. Al Faya Retreat, situated within the ancient landscape of Mleiha, reimagines wellness tourism through a deep connection to place. The retreat transforms two 1960s structures — a former clinic and grocery store beside the <a href="https://www.uaetoday.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UAE’s</a> first fuel station — into a five-room desert sanctuary.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, <strong>Wishi Restaurant at Najd Al Meqsar</strong> in Khorfakkan claimed <em>Best Luxury Unique Experience in the Middle East</em> and <em>Best Magnificent Scenic Views in the Middle East</em>, honoring its celebration of Emirati cuisine within a restored 100-year-old mountain village overlooking Wadi Wishi. Najd Al Meqsar, in Khorfakkan’s Wadi Wishi, features seven luxury heritage units built within restored homes over 100 years old, overlooking ancient mountains and petroglyphs dating back more than 2,000 BCE.</p>



<p>Commenting on the global recognition, <strong>Ahmed Ben Zaied, General Manager of Sharjah Collection</strong>, said: “Winning eight awards at the World Luxury Awards 2025 is a proud moment that celebrates Sharjah’s evolution into a global reference for sustainable luxury. These recognitions reflect Shurooq’s commitment to integrating nature, culture, and innovation in every guest experience. Through the Sharjah Collection, we continue to showcase how authentic hospitality can drive economic and cultural growth while safeguarding the environment and empowering local communities.”</p>



<p><strong>Reflecting Shurooq’s vision for sustainable, culturally rooted development</strong></p>



<p>The awards represent a significant milestone in <strong>Shurooq’s journey to redefine luxury through sustainability, heritage preservation, and authenticity</strong>. Each retreat within the Sharjah Collection embodies the Authority’s long-term vision of transforming Sharjah’s diverse landscapes into destinations that reflect environmental balance, cultural continuity, and holistic wellbeing.</p>



<p>Collectively, the Sharjah Collection reinforces Shurooq’s role in shaping <strong>a new model of responsible tourism</strong>, where economic growth, cultural preservation, and environmental stewardship coexist in balance. Through adaptive reuse of heritage sites, low-impact architecture, and locally inspired design, each property enhances Sharjah’s identity as a destination rooted in authenticity and forward-thinking development.</p>



<p>In recent years, Shurooq has invested more than <strong>AED 300 million</strong> in developing the Sharjah Collection, forming a key component of its <strong>AED 850+ million hospitality portfolio</strong>. This investment supports Sharjah’s rise as a regional hub for conscious, wellness-driven travel — aligning with global trends toward slow tourism and purposeful exploration. </p>



<p><strong>Sharjah’s vision for the future of conscious travel</strong></p>



<p>These achievements reaffirm Sharjah Collection’s role as a catalyst for sustainable development and global recognition. The brand continues to expand with new projects such as <strong>Nomad in Kalba</strong>, set to open in Q4 2025, which will introduce a new dimension of off-grid luxury and community-driven eco-tourism to Sharjah’s east coast.</p>



<p>Established in 2006, the <strong>World Luxury Awards</strong> are among the most respected global accolades celebrating excellence across all sectors of the hospitality industry. The 2025 results reaffirm Shurooq’s enduring vision to position Sharjah as a world-class destination for travelers seeking authenticity, tranquility, and transformation through sustainable luxury.</p><p>The post <a href="https://sharjahhotelsguide.com/sharjah-collection-wins-8-global-titles-at-the-world-luxury-hotel-awards-2025/">Sharjah Collection Wins 8 Global Titles At The World Luxury Hotel Awards 2025</a> first appeared on <a href="https://sharjahhotelsguide.com">Sharjah Hotels Guide</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Coral Beach Resort Sharjah has once again reaffirmed its commitment to sustainability by partnering with Dr. Linen Sustainable Ventures FZCO for the second time, handling over 700 kilograms of end-of-life linens and uniforms.  This initiative reflects the ongoing commitment to responsible resource management, ensuring that the textiles at the end of their operation lifespan are repurposed into sustainable products.</p>



<span id="more-23868"></span>



<p>Dr. Linen Sustainable Ventures FZCO will reprocess and blend the old linens and uniforms with virgin fibers to create new, usable commodities, giving the materials a second life instead of sending them to landfills.  This effort reflects the hotel’s proactive approach to ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) practices, particularly in responsible waste management and carbon footprint reduction.</p>



<p>“Our partnership with Dr. Linen Sustainable Ventures FZCO demonstrates that even small steps like responsibly managing end-of-life linens can lead to a significant positive impact.  Sustainability is a journey, and we are proud to continue leading by example,” said Iftikhar Hamdani, Area General Manager of Coral Beach Resort Sharjah.</p>



<p>This initiative adds to Coral Beach Resort Sharjah’s broader sustainability journey, which includes projects accomplished such as Onsite Water Bottling Plant that eliminate the single-use plastic bottles and the composting machine which convert food waste into natural compost.</p><p>The post <a href="https://sharjahhotelsguide.com/coral-beach-resort-sharjah-renews-commitment-to-circular-economy-with-dr-linen-collaboration/">Coral Beach Resort Sharjah Renews Commitment To Circular Economy With Dr. Linen Collaboration</a> first appeared on <a href="https://sharjahhotelsguide.com">Sharjah Hotels Guide</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In response to the global shift towards wellness tourism and slow, meaningful travel, the Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq) has invested over AED 300 million in recent years to develop the ‘Sharjah Collection’—a portfolio of seven luxury eco-retreats designed to offer restorative experiences rooted in nature, heritage, and sustainability. Together, these destinations offer 154 high-end accommodation units across the emirate’s most breathtaking landscapes, from coastal mangroves and desert dunes to mountain valleys and heritage villages.</p>



<span id="more-23733"></span>



<p>This investment directly taps into the booming global demand for wellness-focused travel. According to the Global Wellness Institute, wellness tourism is projected to exceed USD 1 trillion in 2025, while the ‘slow travel’ movement—growing at approximately 10% annually—is redefining how travellers engage with destinations, placing value on time, tranquillity, and cultural depth. <em>Condé Nast Traveller</em> has also named slow travel one of the defining travel trends of 2025.</p>



<p>Sharjah is rapidly emerging as a regional hub for conscious tourism. Data from the Sharjah Commerce and Tourism Development Authority (SCTDA) reported an 11% year-on-year growth in guest numbers for 2024, with international occupancy continuing to rise in Q1 2025—highlighting the emirate’s increasing appeal among experience-led, wellness-oriented travellers.</p>



<p><strong>Curated journeys across history, ecology, and luxury<br></strong>Among the highlights is <strong><em>Al Faya Retreat</em></strong>, set in the heart of Mleiha’s desert. This destination repurposes two 1960s buildings—once a clinic and grocery store adjacent to the <a href="https://www.uaetoday.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UAE’s</a> first fuel station—into a boutique retreat of five rooms with panoramic desert views. Guests enjoy contemporary dining and curated desert trails.</p>



<p>In Kalba, <strong><em>Kingfisher Retreat</em></strong> is located within a coastal mangrove reserve managed in close collaboration with the Environment and Protected Areas Authority (EPAA), offering 40 sea-facing luxury tents in a nature-first setting that promotes conservation through low-impact design and sustainable materials. Within Mleiha National Park (MNP), <strong><em>Moon Retreat</em></strong> is celebrated as a leading glamping destination, offering 10 geodesic domes and six premium tents. Activities include stargazing, yoga, horse riding, and guided desert explorations through MNP’s dedicated team.</p>



<p><em>Al <strong>Badayer Retreat</strong></em>, located amid Sharjah’s iconic red dunes, blends traditional caravanserai-style aesthetics with modern luxury, offering 46 units that deliver dune adventures, camel rides, and desert tranquillity.</p>



<p><strong><em>Najd Al Meqsar</em></strong>, in Khorfakkan’s Wadi Wishi, features seven luxury heritage units built within restored homes over 100 years old, overlooking ancient mountains and petroglyphs dating back more than 2,000 BCE. Developed in collaboration with “Mubadara,” the retreat includes access to a 300-year-old fort and scenic hiking trails leading to Al Rafisah Dam.</p>



<p>In the nearby historic core of Khorfakkan, <strong><em>Al Rayaheen Retreat</em></strong> comprises 19 restored heritage homes redesigned in collaboration with the Sharjah Institute for Heritage. Among them is the home of the Al Mushtaghil family, now transformed into a central guest facility with a traditional restaurant, palm-lined courtyards, and community spaces that blend historic preservation with modern comfort.</p>



<p><strong>Nomad: A new frontier for off-grid luxury<br></strong>Launching in Q4 2025, <strong><em>Nomad</em></strong> introduces a new eco-retreat concept to Sharjah’s east coast. Situated in Kalba’s mountainous valleys near the Kalba Nature Reserve, the retreat will feature 20 bespoke, solar-powered luxury trailers—designed and manufactured locally. In addition to promoting community enterprise, the off-grid design provides full immersion into nature while safeguarding local ecosystems. A no-wifi, lights-off approach enhances digital disconnection and night-sky visibility, encouraging mindfulness and environmental awareness.</p>



<p>To preserve Kalba’s biodiversity, Shurooq has implemented a suite of environmental protection measures, including impact mitigation protocols for rainfall, terrain, and wildlife movement—reinforcing its vision for sustainable development.</p>



<p><strong>A portfolio rooted in meaning and future resilience</strong></p>



<p>In that context, <strong>H.E. Ahmed Obaid Al Qaseer, CEO of Shurooq</strong> said “Our hospitality projects are built on a vision that goes beyond traditional tourism, they serve as living bridges between the visitor and the place — preserving heritage while reintroducing local identity in a contemporary form. From the start, we have been intentional in designing each destination within the Sharjah Collection to reflect the unique environmental, geographical, and cultural character of its location, offering visitors an experience that is both authentic and immersive.”</p>



<p>Shurooq CEO added: “Whether it was desert dunes, mountain ranges, or coastal landscapes, Sharjah’s natural diversity has provided fertile ground for hospitality projects that resonate with the spirit of each site. The Sharjah Collection is a strategic expression of this vision, with every retreat designed to echo its surroundings and provide a deeply rooted experience blending cultural richness with natural beauty.”</p>



<p>The Sharjah Collection, operated and developed by Shurooq, stands as a cornerstone of the Authority’s AED 850 million+ hospitality portfolio and reflects the emirate’s broader vision for sustainable development. Each retreat is a sanctuary of cultural authenticity and ecological balance—offering travellers opportunities to disconnect from the noise of modern life and reconnect with self, place, and purpose. The collection embodies the principles of slow travel and wellness, while showcasing Sharjah’s natural beauty and timeless heritage.</p>



<p>The impact of these projects extends beyond financial returns; they provide employment opportunities, strengthen the local community’s connection to its surroundings, and contribute to environmental protection through sustainable architecture and low-carbon operational processes. As global preferences continue to favour immersive, responsible, and restorative experiences, Shurooq’s visionary investment in these distinctive retreats firmly establishes Sharjah as a leader in the future of luxury tourism.
