Ramhan Island is being developed into a must-visit destination for those seeking unparalleled luxury and natural beauty in the UAE. Covering over 4 million square meters, this ultra-luxury development features a natural island connected by waterways. The waterfront community will include charming residential villas, marina residences, and luxury hotels, offering state-of-the-art amenities for both residents and tourists.
Scheduled to open in 2029, the Reserve will be located on a secluded part of Ramhan Island and will feature 50 private one-to-four-bedroom luxury villas, including the region’s first floating villas with unobstructed waterfront views. Plans also include a variety of lavish leisure amenities and multiple dining venues.
Ritz-Carlton Reserve properties provide a unique escape centered around human connection, blending local culture, heritage, and environment. Designed for the most discerning travelers seeking a distinct and luxurious getaway, Reserve properties are found in handpicked, serene locations worldwide, offering intimate settings with indigenous flavors and personalized service.
Currently, Ritz-Carlton Reserve boasts a rare collection of only seven properties in destinations such as Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Indonesia, Puerto Rico, and Mexico.
