Hyatt has announced plans to open two hotels under the Park Hyatt and Andaz brands in Jaumur, a luxury marina community in Magna, located on the coast of the Gulf of Aqaba. The upcoming properties—Park Hyatt Jaumur and Andaz Jaumur Marina—will expand Hyatt’s footprint in Saudi Arabia and strengthen its partnership with NEOM, a project focused on sustainable and innovative living.
Jaumur is designed to offer a blend of land and sea experiences, featuring a 300-berth marina, which includes a striking cantilever structure above the largest yachts. The marina will be a hub for cultural, leisure, and entertainment activities, along with a deep-sea diving research center.
Both hotels are set to open in 2027 and will provide a total of 350 rooms and suites. Park Hyatt Jaumur, with 125 rooms, is intended to be a peaceful retreat, offering views of the marina and a blend of entertainment, leisure, and cultural experiences. Andaz Jaumur Marina will offer 225 rooms and suites and will focus on art, creativity, and a modern lifestyle experience. It aims to deliver an eclectic atmosphere that embodies the artistic spirit of Jaumur.
Jeremy Lester, Executive Director of Magna, expressed excitement over the collaboration, saying, "Jaumur is a masterpiece marina community where innovation, learning, and luxury convene. Park Hyatt Jaumur and Andaz Jaumur Marina will embody our desire to redefine coastal luxury for a new generation, grounded in awe-inspiring design and cutting-edge technology that will integrate with the stunning natural environment."
Javier Águila, group president for Europe, Middle East, and Africa at Hyatt, highlighted the importance of the partnership with NEOM, stating, "We are delighted to bring the Park Hyatt and Andaz brands to Jaumur, part of NEOM's regional sustainable tourism portfolio. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a key market in Hyatt's growth strategy in the Middle East, and these upcoming properties in NEOM reflect our dedication to expanding our brand footprint."
The new hotels will offer a range of activities for guests, including hiking, cycling, and water sports, as well as luxury amenities such as beach, art, and yacht clubs. These offerings are designed to enhance the appeal of Jaumur as a top destination for travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation.
Chris Newman, Executive Director of NEOM Hotel Division, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, saying, "At NEOM, we are excited to work with Hyatt in bringing the distinguished Park Hyatt and the vibrant Andaz brands to life in Jaumur. This collaboration represents a seamless alignment of our shared vision for crafting bespoke luxury experiences that resonate with the spirit of innovation and excellence."
Both hotels will participate in the World of Hyatt loyalty program, offering exclusive benefits to members, such as room upgrades, late checkouts, and bonus points.

jüSTa Hotels & Resorts, operated by Onora Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., is all set to make its Uttar Pradesh debut with the launch of jüSTa Kashi Parampara in August 2025. This will be the boutique brand’s 26th hotel in India and its first in the spiritual city of Varanasi.
Located just 800 meters from the iconic Assi Ghat, jüSTa Kashi Parampara occupies an 80-year-old ancestral home, transformed into a hotel for the first time. Offering a seamless blend of heritage and design, the property promises a deeply immersive stay experience in the cultural heart of India.
“This project is close to our hearts, not just because of its unique character and location, but because it continues our commitment to preserving and reviving heritage properties across India. We started this initiative with jüSTa Diwans Bungalow in Ahmedabad last year and this is the second heritage property we are converting into a jüSTa hotel,” said Ashish Vohra, Founder & CEO, jüSTa Hotels & Resorts.
The two-storied bungalow has been reimagined into 14 well-appointed rooms, including two elegant suites, all built around a central courtyard. Interiors in earthy tones create a serene contrast to Varanasi’s bustling atmosphere, making it an ideal retreat for wellness and spiritual travellers.
Heritage elements such as 100-year-old handcrafted wooden pillars, sandstone jali work from Jodhpur, and high ceilings enhance the haveli-like charm. The hotel will serve only vegetarian food, with guests enjoying local and international cuisine at the in-house multi-cuisine vegetarian restaurant.
With its understated exterior and tranquil interiors, jüSTa Kashi Parampara is poised to offer travellers an authentic yet luxurious Banaras experience when it opens in August 2025.
Kamat Hotels India Ltd is all set to add another gem to its eco-luxury portfolio with the opening of The Orchid Panchgani this September. Located in the scenic Western Ghats of Maharashtra, the property offers travelers a refreshing mix of tranquility, indulgence, and nature’s charm.
Surrounded by rolling valleys, strawberry farms, and misty hills, The Orchid Panchgani promises an elevated yet immersive hill-station experience. The accommodation options cater to different tastes and occasions from cozy Classic and Superior Rooms to lavish Honeymoon, Executive, and Royal Suites. Guests can also choose unique stays in rustic wooden chalets or air-conditioned luxury tents, combining comfort with a touch of the outdoors.
For leisure and entertainment, the property features a spa and wellness center, a fully equipped gym, indoor games, karaoke, a children’s playroom, and an in-house discotheque. Event planners and families will find ample space with the ‘Chamber’ banquet hall and a sprawling 30,000 sq.ft. lawn, making it an ideal venue for weddings, corporate events, and private celebrations.
“Panchgani has always held a special place in the hearts of travelers—its natural beauty, old-world charm, and proximity to major cities make it a perfect location for our next Orchid experience. With this new property, we aim to offer a stay that blends luxury with sustainability, and comfort with culture”, said Vishal Kamat, Executive Director, Kamat Hotels India Ltd.
Dining at the in-house multi-cuisine restaurant ‘Boulevard’ will add to the experience, while adventure seekers can explore outdoor activities and sports arranged by the hotel. The outdoor swimming pool, set against a scenic backdrop, offers the perfect spot to unwind.
Highlighting its focus on culturally rich celebrations, Dr. Vithal Kamat, Chairman, Kamat Hotels India Ltd, shared, “Weddings are sacred celebrations of love and tradition. At The Orchid Panchgani, we’ve created an idyllic space where families can host culturally rich and entirely vegetarian wedding galas. With expansive lawns, elegant indoor venues, and a pure-veg gourmet kitchen, the hotel is a perfect destination for Gujarati, Marwadi, Jain, and other community weddings that value authenticity, grandeur, and green surroundings”.
With its serene location, eco-conscious design, and signature Orchid hospitality, The Orchid Panchgani is set to become a go-to destination for couples, families, and travelers looking for a luxury escape in the Western Ghats.
