Five Jumeirah Village, formerly known as Suites in SKAI, is a landmark hotel and apartments building at the centre of Jumeirah Village Circle developed by Five Holdings.
The 60-storey five-star tower has 247 hotel rooms and suites, 221 one- and two-bedroom hotel apartments, and 33 four-bedroom hotel apartments, all with private pools.
The concept is based on a 30 degree rotation of each floor to create a series of balcony sky gardens and 271 sky-high swimming pools.
The gardens have deep soil beds that allow for real plants and trees at a height of 873 feet above sea level.
All apartments have a frontage of at least 130 feet and every room has full height windows.
Interiors were designed by award winning Japanese design firm Nao Taniyama & Associates.
Within the tower there is an all-day diner, pool bar and grill, sports bar and a rooftop Chinese restaurant.
On the podium there are restaurants, a supermarket, gym, boutique spa, a large swimming pool, a putting green, walkways and water features.
The 271 pools and the design of the façade create a cooler microclimate for the gardens.
In April 2015 the hotel was upgraded from the original 4-Star status to a 5-Star luxury hotel and renamed the 'Viceroy Dubai Jumeirah Village' in partnership with the Viceroy Hotel Group.
What sets FIVE Jumeirah Village Dubai apart from other high-rise towers is its unique rotating design which maximises natural daylight.
The ‘breathable architecture’ allows sunlight to shine through the core of the 60-storey tower while a vertical micro-climate with over half a million square feet of flora helps to maintain the temperature naturally.
Each apartment in the cylindrical building incorporates a landscaped garden and private swimming pool – even at a height of 800 feet.
The integrated ‘sky gardens’ allow the development to gain seven times more green living space, compared to the land lost for construction.
The building design has been patented and is registered as a trademark in 168 countries for FIVE Holdings.
FIVE Jumeirah Village won two awards at The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat Awards 2021: Best Tall Building Middle East & Africa, audience vote, and Best Tall Building 200-299 metres Award of Excellence.
