Beach, Marina, And 22 Dining Venues
Preferred Hotels & Resorts announced that Wynn Al Marjan Island will join its Legend Collection ahead of the resort’s planned opening in Spring 2027. Located less than 50 miles from Dubai International Airport in Ras Al Khaimah, the USD 5.1 billion project is one of the largest hospitality developments in the Middle East and will operate as an integrated resort in the region.
The project is being developed by Wynn Design & Development in partnership with Marjan LLC. The resort is located on an island spanning more than 60 hectares and extending into the Arabian Gulf.
Rising 70 stories and reaching a height of 352 meters, the resort’s tower will feature 1,530 accommodations, all offering panoramic water views. This includes 313 suites within Enclave, a boutique hotel occupying the tower’s uppermost floors and designed to deliver personalised guest experience.
Amenities at Wynn Al Marjan Island will include 22 restaurants and lounges, a vibrant beach club, a state-of-the-art theatre, a five-star spa with salon and fitness facilities, a luxury shopping parterre, multiple swimming and wading pools, a 420-metre stretch of white-sand beach, a 98-berth deep-water marina, and Coral Court, a purpose-built events and celebrations center designed to host weddings, social occasions, and large-scale gatherings.
Saurabh Rai, Executive Vice President of South Asia, Middle East, and Africa, Preferred Hotels & Resorts said, “We are delighted to welcome Wynn Al Marjan Island into our Legend Collection, joining a portfolio of iconic properties that set global standards for luxury and experiential travel. This landmark development not only exemplifies the ambition and innovation that defines the Legend Collection but also reflects our expanding global partnership with Wynn Resorts, whose legendary properties in Las Vegas, Macau, and Boston are already part of our family. Together, we are setting bold new benchmarks for ultra-luxury hospitality in the UAE and beyond.”
Max Tappeiner, President, Wynn Al Marjan Island said, “From the outset, Wynn Al Marjan Island has been designed to deliver a truly singular guest experience, one that blends a strong sense of place with the scale, creativity, and service for which Wynn is known. Our inclusion in Preferred Hotels & Resorts’ Legend Collection reflects a shared focus on distinctive, experience-led hospitality as we look ahead to our Spring 2027 opening.”
