and five-star management agreements have resulted in IFA Hotels & Resorts' new
communication platform –‘living à la carte’– which wholly expresses what our company
offers.
We are proud of our achievements in 2006 and geared up for continued growth and success in the coming year.
Here's our fourth issue of IFA Times. I hope you are having a wonderful festive

There have been some news releases and many IFA Times readers will have received
an email broadcast to increase appetites. But our newest project was officially named
and introduced at Cityscape during December 2006.
IFA Hotels & Resorts (IFA HR)
is very proud to announce the Kingdom of Sheba,
our most spectacular Dubai development
yet and one of the largest and most ambitious projects on The Palm Jumeirah.
Reminiscent
of Arabia's ancient cities, the Kingdom of Sheba embraces 141,500 square metres of
prime land on The Crescent, adjacent to Atlantis. Consisting of five separate but adjoining elements, the entire project has a sense of history and grandeur,
with the construction reflecting
the traditional values and symmetry that are inherent to all Arab art forms. more...

Prime time Dubai
While continuing to experience prodigious growth, Dubai is firmly established as
a world class destination. Spectacular architecture, glamorous beach resorts, fine
restaurants, great service, year round sunshine, vibrant nightlife, major sporting
events and of course some of the best shopping on the planet have secured Dubai's
position on many a vacation wish list.
