A shimmering sensation within the Arabian Gulf in Ras Al Khaimah, Al Marjan Island is a real gem both as a residential and leisure destination.
Al Marjan Island is an artificial archipelago of four coral-styled islets groomed to become a fully supported family-friendly community with all amenities and facilities. It looks and feels like nothing less than a paradise with stunning sea views from all sides and a curated collection of luxury resorts, hotels, and residences.
Al Marjan Island comprises 4 coral-shaped islands- Breeze, Treasure, Dream, and View. An aerial shot of the islands together resembles a coral.
It is on Sheikh Mohammed Bin Salem Road, Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. Precisely, it lies closer to Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain Marina.
The island is a freehold property zone, so foreigners can buy and own residences here. It is a major tourist destination with its 7.8 km of pristine beaches and a mixed-use island with upscale amenities for families.
It is one of a kind beachfront community in Dubai with world-class resorts, luxury hotels, opulent residences, marina facilities, green spaces, and leisure scopes for all age groups.
Closest to the Ras Al Khaimah coast, Breeze islet features a 2,000-meter beachfront stretch. It has 6,600 sq. ft. of a waterfront promenade, 5-star beach resorts, and top-class hotel apartments. The landscaped areas with exotic retail facilities and beachside experiences here are worth mentioning.
Truly a treasure island for families, this islet with several family-friendly resorts and residential developments on its 2.5 million sq. ft. area has a lot to offer to all beach lovers.
Dream Island feels beautifully dreamy with 16,000 sq. ft. of vast ivory stretch by the blue ocean. A boulevard bridge links it to Treasure Island. Some of the most high-end hotels in Al Marjan Island, Ras al Khaimah, are being planned here.
Located at the heart of Al Marjan Island, this beautiful 5 million sq. ft. islet offers a range of exclusive and exotic staycation facilities by the beach.
The island has a long list of options on Villas, Townhouses, Apartments, and Penthouses for families with a wide range of both communal and project-specific features and facilities.
Highly competitive property pricing, stunning seashore location with excellent connectivity, and the community is great for family settlements and freehold property investments.
An ambitious collaboration between Aldar Properties and Nikki Beach Global, 1-5 bedroom luxury apartments with several outdoor and indoor amenities are being developed here.
Pool with deck, spa, relaxation space, pet care, hi-speed elevators, 24*7 concierge services, covered parking, multi-level security system, cinema, splash pad, and event space will be available. The project handover date is in 2028.
The Beach House at Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, will have studios, 1-3 bedroom apartments, and townhouses. Families who will live here can enjoy infinity and lagoon pools by the beach, private beach access with cabana seating arrangements, clubhouse, restaurants, gym, yoga space, paddle court, and more. The project completion date is in 2027.
The island pampers the beach lovers with its 7.8 kilometers of ivory sandy beaches. For example, Turtle Beach on Treasure Island offers a range of water-based activities, including turtle spotting on the shallow water near the shoreline. Similarly, Sunset Beach and Reef Beach (popular for snorkelling and coral reefs) are other choices for ultimate beach fun and relaxation here.
The community is set to be packed with stunningly gorgeous and sophisticated beach resorts with multiple activities and facilities for luxurious indulgences.
Epitome of high-class hospitality, the resort has direct beach access with elegant suites and amenities like a health club, wellness center, and pool. Families can enjoy activities like fishing, scuba diving, or snorkelling.
Families craving some adrenaline-pumping activities will love the adventurous water sports at a private beach in this resort. The resort has a beach bar and multiple restaurants, 3 outdoor pools with a kids' pool, a free children’s club, and waterpark access with lifeguards on site for a full-fledged family time.
Apart from elegant accommodations and gourmet dining experiences, it offers memorable family time experiences.
A playground is set for all age groups with different definitions of fun at this beach resort on the island. Fishing, Diving with professional experts, Parachuting, Camel Safari, Desert Drives, Walk and Trekking with Rock Climbing, all arrangements are in order for an enthralling family time.
Different watersports and fun activities on the private beach are possible here, like Jet-skiing, Wakeboarding, Kayaking, Sailing, and Fishing.
This family-centric community goes the extra mile beyond the vast blue ocean and the fun along its sandy beaches. The greenery here is also generous and very welcoming to all.
The islands have landscaped green parks with tree-shaded seating areas and playgrounds for children.

Besides stunningly gorgeous world-class hotels and resorts dotting the island everywhere, almost all developments on the island have supermarkets and retail units. Al Hamra Mall is the nearby one-stop-shop option for the residents and visitors here.
There are no Al Marjan Island schools yet. Several reputable academic institutions are located in Al Hamra Village or Al Hamra Industrial Area nearby. Clinics and hospitals are also just a few minutes' drive away, so there shouldn’t be any problem for families settling here.
Al Hamra Golf Club and Al Hamra Marina & Yacht Club at Al Hamra Village (a luxurious community) are close to the island.
By 2027, the Wynn Resort plans to build the UAE’s first casino resort on this island. Not a very family-oriented place to be (especially with younger kids), but sensational news for all the Las Vegas fans in the family for sure!
Al Marjan Islands is an action-packed and fun-filled destination for family settlements, family time together, and a hotspot for investors to capitalize on its plus points.
The residential projects in progress here promise luxury beachfront living in Dubai at its finest and most exotic form. Amenities are luxurious. Social facilities are either within the premises of the islands or a few minutes away from the community. Beach fun and adventures offered by resorts and hotels here all keep one on their toes all day long.
Once completed, the island will find its place amongst the best beachfront destinations in the UAE.
