Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is Al Marjan Island and what’s its layout?

Al Marjan is a carefully master-planned series of four coral-shaped islands—Breeze, Treasure, Dream, and View—that extend 4.5 kilometers into the Arabian Gulf. Collectively, the development covers 2.7 million square meters of reclaimed land. Each island is tailored for a different purpose: Breeze for hospitality and entertainment, Treasure for mixed-use developments, Dream for luxury residences, and View for beachfront villas and resorts. The design supports integrated living, seamlessly blending hospitality, residential communities, commercial centers, and leisure zones across its shores.

Where is it located and how accessible is it?

The island is situated just off the coast of Al Jazirah Al Hamra in Ras Al Khaimah. It’s strategically positioned only about an hour from Dubai via the E311 or E611 highways, making it easily reachable for weekend travelers or daily commuters. Ras Al Khaimah International Airport is just 30 minutes away, while Dubai International Airport—servicing most long-haul international traffic—is roughly 70 to 75 minutes by car. Plans for improved ferry access and water transport are also underway, enhancing the island’s connectivity to other emirates.

What types of properties are available and what are typical price ranges?

Al Marjan offers a wide variety of real estate options. Entry-level buyers often gravitate toward studio and one-bedroom apartments priced from AED 350,000 to AED 800,000. Two- and three-bedroom units typically range from AED 900,000 to AED 1.5 million. For luxury seekers, beachfront villas, penthouses, and floating homes are also available, with prices extending into the AED 2 million to AED 4 million bracket, depending on size, view, and brand affiliation. Properties are available as ready-to-move-in or off-plan, offering diverse entry points for different investment strategies.

Are foreigners allowed to buy property here?

Yes. Al Marjan is one of the freehold zones in Ras Al Khaimah, which means foreign nationals can own property outright. This includes full ownership rights, resale privileges, and 100% repatriation of capital and profits. The UAE does not levy taxes on individual income or property gains, making it an attractive jurisdiction for long-term wealth preservation.

What rental yields and investment returns can buyers expect?

Rental yields on Al Marjan are currently among the most competitive in the UAE. Studio and one-bedroom apartments commonly achieve gross yields between 7% and 7.5%. Villas and townhouses see slightly lower but still healthy returns in the range of 4% to 6%, depending on finish, location, and view. Penthouses and branded residences, especially those with beach access or serviced features, can yield up to 6% gross. As tourism and population inflow increase, these numbers are projected to rise.
