Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Kleindienst Group, the European-born conglomerate renowned for its diverse portfolio spanning real estate development, construction, luxury hospitality, sustainable energy, and marine engineering, has unveiled the visionary new design of Hotel Cannes — the most exclusive, family-friendly destination within The Heart of Europe, located on The World Islands off the coast of Dubai. The hotel is slated to open in the third quarter of 2026.

Blending immersive storytelling with exceptional design and refined hospitality, Hotel Cannes encapsulates Kleindienst Group’s philosophy of experience-driven luxury — where every element evokes emotion, beauty, and discovery.

French Riviera Glamour, Reimagined

Set within the Côte d’Azur resort, Hotel Cannes will feature 215 elegant rooms and suites inspired by the timeless charm and coastal sophistication of the French Riviera. The design captures the golden-age glamour of Cannes through a contemporary lens — merging European refinement with the warmth and vibrancy of the Mediterranean.

The interiors evoke a sense of nostalgic coastal living through soft, modern lines and sun-washed tones that bring the Riviera’s radiant spirit to life.

A Bold Vision of Design and Discovery

Rooted in creativity and curiosity, the hotel’s concept is crafted for the modern traveler seeking authenticity, innovation, and connection. Every detail celebrates the joy of exploration — from bespoke furnishings and artisanal finishes to the seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Hotel Cannes invites guests into a world that celebrates elegance, imagination, and boundless luxury, reflecting the energy and joie de vivre of the French coast.

“Marché” – The Heartbeat of the Hotel

At the vibrant center of Hotel Cannes lies Marché — a lively, French-inspired marketplace that redefines social dining. Drawing inspiration from Cannes’ iconic Marché Forville, this elegant gathering place recreates the sensory richness of a Riviera market, complete with artisanal bakeries, oyster counters, and curated European culinary experiences.

The design celebrates the Mediterranean way of life — bright, convivial, and effortlessly chic — where every corner tells a story of craftsmanship and community.

Mediterranean Elegance in Every Suite

The hotel’s guest rooms and suites reflect understated opulence, with a soothing palette of turquoise, sand, and light wood. Soft linens, hand-crafted ceramics, and bespoke lighting create an atmosphere that is both luxurious and serene.

Expansive sea-view suites offer panoramic vistas across the Arabian Gulf, while every texture and tone — from the fine fabrics to the glow of the evening light — captures the romantic essence of Cannes.

Design Excellence and Strategic Vision

The unveiling of Hotel Cannes marks a significant milestone in the evolution of The Heart of Europe — positioning it among the world’s foremost luxury hospitality destinations. This new design underscores Kleindienst Group’s commitment to crafting culturally inspired experiences that place guests at the heart of the story.

Conceived for a new generation of global travelers, the hotel embodies a modern sense of sophistication, inviting guests to explore, connect, and indulge.

Joining voco Monaco Dubai and voco Nice Dubai, Hotel Cannes completes the Riviera-inspired hospitality trilogy within the Côte d’Azur resort at The Heart of Europe. Opening in Q3 2026, it promises to bring a new dimension of artistry, elegance, and cultural allure to The World Islands.
