W Hotel & Residences

W Hotel & Residences is a 21-story ultra-luxury branded development on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, developed by Dalands. It is one of only 20 W-branded residential projects globally and is backed by Marriott International's hospitality standard. The project offers fully furnished 1 to 5-bedroom residences, duplexes, and a private beach mansion.

The project is situated on Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, a coastal destination increasingly referred to as the Riviera of the Emirates. It is 30 minutes from Ras Al Khaimah International Airport and approximately 60 minutes from Dubai International Airport. The development sits steps from the Wynn Resort, the UAE's first casino.

W Hotel & Residences offers 1BR units from AED 4.1M (1,076 sq ft), 2BR from AED 6.5M (1,615 sq ft), 2BR duplexes from AED 10.5M (2,878 sq ft), 3BR duplexes from AED 19.4M (4,514 sq ft), and 4BR duplexes from AED 31.4M (7,333 sq ft). A 5-bedroom private beach mansion spanning 17,000 sq ft is also available at price on request. All units are fully furnished with W-branded interiors.

The project offers a 70/30 payment plan, meaning 70% is paid during construction and 30% on handover in Q4 2027. This structure gives investors a manageable entry point while securing a branded asset in a rapidly appreciating market. Early buyers benefit from pre-handover pricing before the Wynn Casino and surrounding infrastructure are fully operational.

Handover is scheduled for Q4 2027, specifically December 2027. This timeline gives investors approximately two to three years of capital appreciation potential before completion, particularly given the accelerating demand driven by the nearby Wynn Resort development. Buyers who enter early are positioned to benefit from price growth over that period.

Yes — investors purchasing property valued at AED 2 million or more qualify for the 10-Year UAE Golden Visa or Property Investor Visa. Since W Hotel & Residences starts at AED 4.1M, all units qualify automatically. The visa extends to immediate family members and domestic staff, providing long-term residency security in the UAE.

Residents have full access to W Hotel's five-star services, including concierge, housekeeping, in-residence dining, and beach butler services. The development offers direct private beach access, resort-style pools, wellness facilities, and curated W-brand lifestyle programming. Being part of Marriott's global network also unlocks reciprocal benefits across W Hotels worldwide.

Al Marjan Island is the site of the UAE's first licensed casino resort — the Wynn — which is expected to drive significant tourism, rental demand, and capital appreciation across the island. The UAE's tax-free environment and 100% foreign ownership rules make it especially attractive to international investors. RAK's comparatively lower entry prices relative to Dubai, combined with rising infrastructure investment, position Al Marjan Island as one of the highest-potential emerging luxury markets in the Gulf.
