Corinthia’s reputation for combining intelligent, modern design with intuitive and warm service aligns with the UDC’s strategy of forging meaningful relationships with partners who share a mutual vision to deliver a new standard of excellence in services and facilities at The Pearl Island, the statement adds.
“Qatar has witnessed significant growth in tourism, and hospitality over the past few years,” said UDC chairman Turki bin Mohamed al-Khater. “Driven by the UDC’s vision to create a world-leading maritime eco-system in Qatar, this partnership with Corinthia Hotels lays a solid foundation for our expansion plans through investments in vital sectors including maritime, tourism and hospitality.”

Ibrahim Jassim al-Othman, UDC president, chief executive officer and member of the Board, said: “We are confident that the inauguration of the Corinthia Yacht Club, under the management of Corinthia Hotels, will deliver an exceptional high-end leisure experience and state-of-the-art facilities that will set a new benchmark in Doha.”
“The Corinthia Yacht Club will be a unique landmark as well as a prized addition to the distinctive facilities of The Pearl Island,” he added.
“Corinthia’s history and internationally renowned reputation of distinction within the hospitality sector resonates with Qatar’s modern luxury and dedication to delivering excellence,” said Corinthia Hotels chief executive Simon Naudi. “The UDC’s partnership with Corinthia Hotels is the ideal match to embed a world-class yacht club that will further enhance The Pearl Island as an internationally recognised maritime destination.”
Located in Porto Arabia, the new 24,000sq foot (2,232sq m) club provides a full-service marina that offers world-class facilities for yacht owners.

Facilities include a climate-controlled outdoor terrace, a members’ lounge serving High Tea, private meeting rooms that offer comfort and discretion, a members-only Mediterranean restaurant, and a signature dining experience from London, KAI of Mayfair.
While club membership is by invitation only, the local community and visitors can enjoy access to Kai’s Songbird restaurant.
Commenting on the launch of Corinthia’s inaugural yacht club, managing director of Corinthia Doha Matthew Dixon said: “We are thrilled to launch the first-of-its-kind luxury yacht club in Doha, further enhancing the exclusive offering of The Pearl Island.”
“With its breathtaking design and exceptional setting, the Corinthia Yacht Club will become the ultimate destination for discreet meetings, prestigious events and unparalleled dining experiences,” he said.
The state-of-the-art design of the Corinthia Yacht Club is wrapped in glass, providing members and guests with a 360° view of the marina, complementing Qatar’s reputation for innovative architecture, elegant design and consummate luxury.
The Corinthia Yacht Club’s striking exterior is inspired by the sails of Qatar’s traditional dhow, while the interior boasts modern design and comfort.
The partnership between the UDC and the Corinthia Yacht Club involves the Yacht Club de Monaco and Monaco Marina Management (M3).
Yacht Club de Monaco is synonymous with the ultimate maritime luxury lifestyle and is arguably the world’s capital of yachting.
Its involvement with the Corinthia Yacht Club, and its Mediterranean relationship with Qatar’s maritime traditions, demonstrates the level of service and quality of this development within the Middle East, offering luxury yacht owners all the practical facilities required delivered to the highest standard.
The partnership with the Yacht Club de Monaco will also potentially establish the Corinthia Yacht Club as a “La Belle Classe Destination”, a designation awarded to world-class marinas that achieve the Yacht Club de Monaco’s exceptional standards in quality of facilities, services and safety.
The Corinthia Yacht Club will be the first of three Corinthia-branded luxury developments opening over the next three years.
Corinthia Gewan Island Hotel will open in 2024, in partnership with the UDC, adjacent to The Pearl Island in Qatar, followed by Corinthia Residences that will open in 2025.
