Hilton new Ras al Khaimah project seals Al Marjan Island as top spot in UAE gaming hub

Hilton will launch its third opulent property on the sun-kissed shores on the once-tranquil and low-key Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah.

After the announcement of the Wynn casino, luxury operators and prestigious hotel groups have been flocking to the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah, that is only an hour’s drive away from Dubai.

The new Hilton will be the latest entrant on Al Marjan Island, a location that is expected to be synomomous with integrated casino resorts, a confident bet by the hotel operator on the success of the future ‘gaming state’.

AED500m investment sets the stage

The resort will be situated on Ras Al Khaimah’s Al Marjan Island, The AED500 million project, which shows Hilton’s commitment to properties in prestigious locations, promises to be a fusion of contemporary design and unmatched hospitality.

The upcoming 5-star hotel, a brainchild of the renowned architectural firm JT+Partners, boasts a grand total of 410 keys, encompassing 350 meticulously designed hotel rooms and 60 exclusive residences. Among its standout features is the highest 360-degree sky pool in the Northern Emirates, promising guests an unparalleled panoramic view of the stunning surroundings.

This hospitality project is not just about accommodation; it’s a complete experience. The property will house an executive lounge, a state-of-the-art convention centre, and three exquisite F&B outlets, providing an array of culinary delights to cater to every palate. For those seeking relaxation and recreation, the hotel offers a suite of world-class facilities to indulge in.

Attraction for investors

Architect Abdulla Al Abdouli, the Chief Executive Officer of Marjan, expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, “The latest Hilton property will usher in a new era of luxury living on Ras Al Khaimah’s Al Marjan Island as the enduring appeal of waterfront living continues to attract local, regional, and global investors to our flagship development.”

The investment of half a billion dirhams in this Hilton-operated flagship will set new standards in hospitality in Ras Al Khaimah. Architect Abdulla Al Abdouli believes that the property will not only elevate the lifestyles of discerning clientele but also reinforce Ras Al Khaimah’s position as a leading international tourism, business, and investment destination.

As Hilton adds another state-of-the-art property to Al Marjan Island, the anticipation builds for the grand launch of this exceptional project.
