The Lana - Dorchester Collection: Quiet Luxury on the Marina

The Lana, opened in 2024 by the Dorchester Collection, sits along Marasi Bay Marina, offering serene views of the Burj Khalifa. Designed by Foster + Partners, its 225 rooms and suites, starting at 50 square meters, embrace understated elegance with pale rose velvet, pink leather, and mosaic columns. The rooftop infinity pool is a highlight, reflecting Dubai’s skyline at dusk.
The UAE’s first Dior Spa, spanning 2,000 square meters, offers exclusive treatments. Dining includes a Basque restaurant by MartÃn Berasategui, whose portfolio boasts multiple Michelin stars. A boat transfer, launching in 2025, will connect guests to a private Palm Jumeirah beach.
Rates begin at $700 per night. The Lana’s restrained opulence, a departure from Dubai’s flashier resorts, appeals to those seeking sophistication. Its marina setting and impeccable service mark it as a standout in Dubai’s crowded luxury landscape.
