Overview
Al Marjan Island is a group of man-made islands extending into the Arabian Gulf off the coast of Ras Al Khaimah — a separate emirate north of Dubai. It is a resort destination of beachfront hotels and residences, and the site of Wynn Al Marjan Island, an integrated resort that Wynn Resorts has said it expects to open in September 2027.
Location
The islands sit off Ras Al Khaimah’s coastline, reached by road from Dubai via the northern emirates. Ras Al Khaimah International Airport serves the emirate.
Lifestyle and character
Beach-resort living at a slower pace than Dubai, built around hotels, hospitality and the sea.
Property types
Beachfront apartments, hotel and branded residences — including Mondrian-branded residences by developer Elevate — and some villas.
Buyer considerations
- Different emirate, different rules. Property registration, ownership zones and fees are handled by Ras Al Khaimah authorities, not the Dubai Land Department.
- Tourism-dependent demand. Much of the area’s outlook is tied to hospitality and the Wynn resort; opening dates have already moved once.
- Smaller resale market than Dubai, which can affect liquidity.
