Ray by Cloud 7 opens in Kuwait's Mangaf

Ray by Cloud 7, a contemporary hotel, has opened its doors in Mangaf, Kuwait, bringing together modern design, relaxed coastal living and curated dining experiences.

Operated by global lifestyle hospitality group Kerten Hospitality, Ray by Cloud 7 introduces a fresh approach to staycations and short escapes in Kuwait - blending stylish upscale accommodation, diverse dining options, wellness & fitness, social experiences, flexible event spaces and family-friendly activities in a vibrant coastal setting.

Located along the waterfront in Mangaf, the hotel features 59 elegantly designed rooms and suites inspired by understated coastal sophistication and modern comfort.

Designed as more than just a hotel stay, Ray by Cloud 7 invites guests to slow down, reconnect and experience Kuwait from a different perspective - whether through sunset mocktails by the pool, beachfront yoga and wellness sessions, kids cooking classes, curated afternoon teas or private fishing and sea adventures departing from nearby Al Kout Marina. In addition, guests have easy access to nearby lifestyle and entertainment attractions including Al Kout Mall & Q8 Karting Lab.

“Ray by Cloud 7 was created to offer something different for Kuwait - a contemporary lifestyle destination where guests can switch off, connect and enjoy meaningful experiences that are community-driven and locally rooted,” said Marloes Knippenberg, CEO of Kerten Hospitality.

“Since we opened The House Hotel Al Khiran in Kuwait in 2021, we’ve seen a growing appetite for destinations that go beyond accommodation to create a sense of belonging. Today’s guests are looking for more than a room. They want atmosphere, wellness, great food, social connection and a sense of belonging, whether they are travelling with family, friends or for a short escape close to home. This hotel is designed to connect travellers and residents alike, reflecting Kuwait’s energy and creativity through lifestyle experiences and community engagement,” she added.

A central part of Kerten’s ethos, local collaboration will play a key role in shaping the property’s guest experience. The hotel will showcase partnerships with local artisans, creators, and culinary talent, making it a cultural and social hub for both visitors and the surrounding community. - TradeArabia News Service
