    • Al Areen, Bahrain

      The Marriott Hotel is located in the central desert region on the island of Bahrain. It is a key component of the overall Al Waha Resort Master Plan.

      Green Initiatives

      Developed as an oasis within the desert, some environmentally sustainable initiatives developed include:

      • In-ground bore holes – to take advantage of the stable sub-terrain temperature sink
      • Mixed mode mechanical systems with heat recovery
      • Water recycling, managed commissioning strategies
      • Passive and active cooling through thermal mass
      • Shading through balconies
      • Loggias and trellis planting to the rooms
      • Optimisation of daylight for illumination and use of local and low “e” materials.
