Structure & Design Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa is inspired by its location. Messilah, derived from the word Massiyalah, denotes a low-lying area where waters merge and flow into the sea. Thus, inherent to the hotel s identity, water can be found throughout the hotel s design. Water features flow from the central lobby and throughout the building to connect with streams, channels and fountains in the gardens.
Water is also reflected in a series of striking sculptures and in the interior design of the hotel. In addition, the hotel s Talise Spa, Jumeirah s signature spa concept, means beautiful waters in a Native American language, to reflect the calming and soothing properties of water. Another key design feature is the use of traditional Kuwaiti oriel windows of Mashrabiya design which can be found around the hotel.
