The accompanying private beach gives way to scenic walking tracks and lush green spaces, with the bright lights of Dubai just an hour away. 

 

With a GDV of approximately US$250 million, the project is expected to be officially unveiled in May 2024 with construction due to be completed in 2028, in joint development with Aarvees Group.

 

With its exceptional natural beauty and world-class amenities, Al Marjan Island continues to attract discerning investors and residents seeking a luxurious lifestyle. The upcoming branded residences with interiors by Aston Martin promise to redefine luxury living in Ras Al Khaimah, setting a new standard of excellence in the region’s real estate landscape.
