The United Arab Emirates has become a major tourist destination and building powerhouse in recent years, attracting skilled laborers worldwide. To cater to the growing demand for accommodation and to enhance the living experience of tourists, the UAE has introduced the groundbreaking concept of the Earth Hotel.
This blog explores how the Earth Hotel can open a way for skilled laborers, particularly those engaged in hospitality and construction work. We shall also delve into the role of Dynamic Staffing Services, a recruitment agency, in supporting these laborers and employers for their needs.
According to co-founder and CEO Citizen Alan Honein, the main contractor for Earth Hotels’ 300 million UAE dirham ($81.67 million) hotel on Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah will be hired in the fourth quarter of 2023. The business, which caters to “earthy travelers,” intends to debut its first Earth Shore Al Marjan Island hotel with 265 rooms in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region in the first quarter of 2025.
As per the report, with the consent of the Ras Al Khaimah government and the municipality, they have completed all design packages. The project manager will be the local company OPECO, while the project consultant will be SYDEN. C-Lab Architects is the company behind the Earth Shore Hotel. The development of three hotel projects within the UAE is the company’s main priority, although Honein also mentioned that it intends to grow outside the region.

According to a recent interview, Alon Honein highlighted the distinct design feature that distinguishes the Al Marjan Hotel. It was said that the visitor experience, space activation, and useful art are all part of their design process. They are focusing on teamwork and fostering a sense of community.
Further, about the property operator in place, they have taken a cooperative approach to the ownership structure of their prospective hotel projects. One or more companies (Preston Development) own the land and construction assets. At the same time, “Earth Hotels” will manage and operate the hotel solely on behalf of their brand.
In terms of lightning, the vision is to use energy-efficient lighting, low-energy LEDs, and a strong emphasis on lowering light pollution through clever design. Technology for capturing, storing, and producing renewable energy is what they are looking at. To further assist in converting food waste into high-value energy sources, they will concentrate on an organic waste-to-energy system. Earth Hotels will take steps to minimize the impact on the surrounding environment of the off-site building, automation, and construction.
It was reported that Alan Honein is concentrating on three hotel projects with about 400 keys spread among the three sites, which will be built in the United Arab Emirates. The goals, however, go beyond neighborhood limits. Their team is seeking to establish a footprint in several nations. Currently, they have a project underway in Portugal. Their multifaceted approach demonstrates their dedication to growth and development in the hospitality industry.
They have widened their scope to encompass the creation of Earth Mangroves in Abu Dhabi and are currently in the planning stages of another project at a location that won’t be revealed. It all reveals that there would be a major demand for skilled workers for these upcoming construction projects. With anticipated opening dates in the fourth and first quarters of 2025, the first two properties in the Kingdom will be in Jeddah, offering 70–80 rooms, and in Riyadh, offering 80–100 rooms.
