In
the past, people of the Emirates made their living from
the sea, concentrating on fishing, pearling and trading.
With the developments of the cultured pearl in Japan
during the 1920's, and the subsequent discovery of oil,
the pearling industry declined. Today while the pearling
fleets are only a memory, kept alive in folk songs and
legends, the name Lou' Lou'a meaning (pearl) is often
used to describe someone or something that is as precious
as the gem..... a true jewel.
We
choose the name Lou' Lou'a for our Resort not only to
pay a tribute to our past, but also to bear testimony
to an old adage 'Only if you understand the past will
you be able to journey successfully into the future'
