Joe Sita, President of IFA Hotel Investments, responsible for building and asset managing the hotel, said: "We are really pleased with the final product here, both in terms of the hotel and the private residence club. As the first Fairmont Heritage Place to come to market in the Middle East, we''ve intentionally kept it very exclusive, with only 130 fractions available for purchase. With its remarkable location on the Palm Jumeirah, the superior service and amenities of the hotel and such limited opportunities for purchase, we are certain it will strike the right chord with owners looking for a turnkey holiday home in the GCC."
