Edamah, the real estate arm of Bahrain Mumtalakat Holding Company (Mumtalakat), has announced the appointment of Mohammed Jalal Contracting as the main contractor for the highly anticipated Azure Beach Club at Bilaj Al Jazayer. The announcement marks a key milestone in the development of one of Bahrain’s most prominent upcoming beachfront destinations, set to open in Q2 2026.

Operated by Sunset Hospitality Group (SHG), Azure Beach Club will bring a world-class leisure experience to Bahrain’s shores, enhancing the kingdom’s growing luxury lifestyle and tourism offering. The beachfront destination will feature a signature infinity pool, exclusive cabanas, premium changing facilities, and direct beach access, supported by a curated calendar of entertainment and social events.

Complementing the venue’s leisure experience will be Ammos, an authentic Greek restaurant operated by SHG. The restaurant promises to blend traditional Mediterranean flavours with a contemporary coastal atmosphere, adding a distinct culinary element to the project.

Khaled Abdulrahman Almajed, CEO of Edamah, said: “This milestone marks a significant step forward in realizing Bilaj Al Jazayer’s vision as a world-class destination, fully aligned with the Kingdom of Bahrain’s aspirations for tourism and leisure. The Beach Club is set to become a landmark on Bahrain’s coastline, creating a premium lifestyle hub that drives community engagement, attracts visitors, and delivers sustainable long-term growth. By appointing a trusted contractor and partnering with Sunset Hospitality Group, we are ensuring excellence at every stage, reinforcing Edamah’s position as a nation-builder, a catalyst for investment, and a long-term custodian of enduring value for Bahrain.”

Jalal M Jalal, Chairman of Mohammed Jalal & Sons Co. Ltd. W.L.L., said: “We are proud to join Edamah in shaping Bilaj Al Jazayer’s next chapter as Bahrain’s premier waterfront destination. We appreciate the trust they have placed in us and remain dedicated to helping them deliver a high-quality project that aligns with the Kingdom’s ambitions and helps drive its economic growth. Leveraging our expertise, we look forward to playing a key role in the successful completion of this landmark development.”

Established by Sunset Hospitality Group in 2017, Azure Beach has become synonymous with upscale coastal living, with existing venues in Dubai, Marbella, Doha, and Beirut. The Bahrain opening will mark another strategic expansion for SHG and contribute to the country’s broader tourism diversification goals under Bahrain Vision 2030.

Located within the larger Bilaj Al Jazayer masterplan, Azure Beach Club is designed to create a vibrant social and leisure hub that complements Bahrain’s natural coastal beauty. The development aims to strengthen the country’s hospitality infrastructure, attract new visitor segments, and contribute to sustainable economic growth.
