A project is underway to develop 200 chalets in Al Mbazara Al Khadra area in Al Ain.
The project includes refurbishing and maintaining existing chalets and equipping them with new services and facilities such as restaurants and swimming pools to ensure guest comfort, reported Al Ittihad, the sister Arabic-language newspaper of The National.
The director general of the chalet project in Al Mbazara Al Khadra said another future project is under review to build new additional chalets and a mall as part of a tourist development vision for the area.
The Abu Dhabi Tourism and Culture Authority (TCA) in February last year announced plans to turn Al Ain into a tourist destination, saying 650 to 800 new hotel rooms would be added in the next 18 months.
