Ramhan Island
Ramhan Island is being developed to become the next must-visit destination for travellers seeking unparalleled luxury and natural beauty in the UAE. Covering over 4mn sq. meters of development area, the ultra-luxury destination features a natural island connected through a network of waterways. The fully integrated waterfront community will be home to charming residential villas, marina residences and luxury hotels, offering state-of-art amenities for residents and tourists alike.
Slated to open in 2029, the Reserve will be situated on a secluded island within Ramhan Island and will feature 50 private one-to-four-bedroom luxury villas including the region’s first anticipated floating villas with unobstructed waterfront views. Plans also include a range of lavish leisure amenities and multiple culinary venues.
Ritz-Carlton Reserve currently features a rare collection of only seven properties in destinations including Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Indonesia, Puerto Rico, and Mexico.
