What the Developer Is Known For

FIVE Holdings was founded as SKAI Holdings in 2011 and rebranded in 2017, developing and operating luxury hotels with branded residences attached. The portfolio runs FIVE Palm Jumeirah, FIVE Jumeirah Village, FIVE LUXE on JBR beachfront and FIVE Zurich in Switzerland. Its distinction is environmental rather than decorative: the group holds the only A ESG rating awarded by ISS in its sector, its Dubai and Zurich hotels are 100% LEED Platinum, and the Dubai properties run entirely on solar with carbon footprints five times lower than peers.

The Only A ESG Rating in Its Sector

FIVE holds the only A ESG rating issued by the ISS global rating agency to a hospitality group, an independent measure rather than a marketing claim.

Solar-Powered, LEED Platinum Portfolio

Every FIVE hotel in Dubai and Zurich is LEED Platinum certified, and the Dubai properties run on 100% solar with carbon footprints five times below peers.

Residences Inside Working Hotels

Owners at FIVE Palm Jumeirah and FIVE LUXE buy into an operating five-star hotel, with its service, dining and rental programme included by design.
