Location mattersSpa and leisure facilities at Fujairahs first five-star beach resort, Le Meridien Al Aqah, are preparing for expansion, following three successful years of operation, according to Talar Hagopian, spa manager at the resort. The resort, which first opened in 2003, has set the benchmark for hotel operations in the emirate, and is soon to be joined by Rotana and Japanese hotel group JAL Hotels, which is set to open the Nikko Fujairah in December, as the Fujairah coastline becomes a favourite weekend and day destination for those living in the UAE. As local weekend and day visitor numbers continue to grow year on year, Hagopian is preparing to extend her spa facilities with the opening of more treatment rooms and is now busy promoting the resorts day spa offering. My new challenge is to market our day spa, or what we refer to now as Al Aqah Journeys, to the residents of Dubai and neighbouring emirates. read more. Palm Atlantis rises up from the sandLocated on the furthermost point of the busiest construction site in Dubai, the logistics of building the Atlantis on the Palm Jumeirah were never going to be easy. Throw in a midday working ban, an international shortage of tower cranes, the problem of accommodating 2,000 site workers, and the fact that your entire development will be built on sand, and you really have all the ingredients of what is known in the industry as a logistical nightmare. But despite the myriad obstacles threatening the smooth progress of the US $1.5 billion (AED5.5 billion) project, it remains on track for a December 2008 opening. Perhaps the key reason for this has been the unusual approach adopted by developer, Kerzner International. And that started with the decision to avoid letting the work to a main contractor in the traditional way. read more.

O'Neill ready to start work at VillaMARTIN O'Neill's appointment as Villa boss should be rubber-stamped today with the Irishman expected at Villa Park to sign a long-term contract.

Parents sceptical of school fee insurance programmeDubai: Eight out of ten parents have shrugged off an education insurance programme launched by a school group saying that if it really wants to help pupils and their parents it should first try to get their tuition fees decreased. The initiative, launched in the Global Education Management Schools (GEMS) group, is entirely optional and guarantees a child's education in the event of death or permanent disability of a family's main wage earner. Known as the GEMS Education Protection Programme (GEPP), it is said to be the first of its kind in the UAE education market. Coverage for the insured family member is valid worldwide. Uniquely, the nominated parent does not need a medical check-up or even to show proof of employment. On the basis of a fully refundable deposit, a child will receive free tuition until the completion of his/her schooling or 20th birthday. read more.If top quality Education Jobs In Dubai facts is what you are enthusiastic about, Ask Jeeves can detect it for you.
