Elevating a coastal gem to a globally recognised haven

SHARJAH BEACH HOTEL

The objective of this project was to explore ways to elevate Sharjah Beach Hotel into an internationally branded 3- or 4-star retreat. As part of RLB’s scope, our research explored transforming 135 rooms into smaller units to bolster inventory while analysing the merits of demolition versus strategic refurbishment, potentially returning the hotel into shell and core, and starting again.

RLB was appointed to provide asset optimisation and cost management services for this project. Our expertise spanned structure, MEP, interiors and FLS, culminating in a meticulous budget proposal. The role also included conducting a feasibility study and providing brand benchmarking costs for the Sharjah market.
