LuxeGlamp Launches Eco-Resort in Umm Al Quwain, UAE

Luxury glamping brand LuxeGlamp has expanded internationally with the opening of its first eco-resort in Umm Al Quwain, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Located within the mangrove reserve, LuxeGlamp UAQ features ten glass-domed suites and covers 50 acres, offering a sustainable, eco-friendly hospitality experience.

The project was inaugurated by Sheikh Majid bin Saud bin Rashid Al Mualla, reflecting the emirate’s focus on responsible tourism. The resort’s amenities include private plunge pools, wooden decks, saunas, and hammocks, all designed to blend into the natural surroundings with uninterrupted views of the Arabian Gulf and mangroves.

Antony Thomas, Founder and CEO of LuxeGlamp, said “LuxeGlamp UAQ is a celebration of what Indian eco-luxury hospitality can achieve globally. We're proud to share our nature-first design philosophy with the world. A highlight of the destination is Luxe Bistro—a stunning glass-domed fine-dining restaurant that offers a fusion of Indian, Middle Eastern, and Mediterranean cuisines, crafted using local and sustainable ingredients.”

Sustainability is central to the development, with solar power, recyclable materials, bamboo wood, and no use of single-use plastics. LuxeGlamp has earned acclaim in India for its award-winning, eco-sensitive glamping retreats in Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu and Munnar, Kerala.
