And also as just happened with the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai which changed its opening from Oct 2012 to Dec 2012 in the past week. I was hoping to possible book this property for a stay in October, hence why it was on my radar. I will have to settle for the regular JW.

Until a new hotel actually allows bookings I would not plan on the projected opening date.

As of right now this property is not classified as a resort, but I would not be surprised if that changed prior to opening. I also concur with others that a number of Asia properties deviate the resort exclusion rule on free breakfast and extend that benefit to Plat/Gold elites even though they are not obligated to.
