Dubai: Dubai Municipality has renovated 15 beachfront chalets at Al Mamzar Park ahead of the winter season.
The chalets are popular weekend getaways in cooler weather, but were in need of a makeover.
The municipality’s general maintenance department recently spruced up the chalets at a cost of Dh600,000.
The maintenance works included removing old paint from walls, improving roofs and covering the chalets with natural stone that can resist corrosion.
Also, the interiors were freshly painted and the old wooden doors and accessories were replaced. The barbeque area was also renovated.
Juma Khalifa Al Fuqae, director of general maintenance department, said: “The project is aimed at constantly upgrading the standard of services rendered by the civic body for the general public in tune with the latest developments and best international practices.
“Upgrading services is equally important as providing new services, rather more important for Dubai as we never want to lag in providing pioneering services to the society.”
He added: “Overall, now the chalets have a new look… We hope the park can attract more visitors and users of chalets, especially during the winter season after the renovation work. Also, we always expect feedback and comments from the public regarding the public services and facilities so as to provide the best services according to their expectations.”
