Bab Al Bahr Resort, Ras Al Khaimah

Ras Al Khaimah (RAK), like all of the Seven Emirates, is going full speed ahead with Mega Project development. Bab Al Bahr Resort, being developed by Rakeen, is located on Al Marjan Island and will be one of RAK's primary leisure and tourist destinations. The resort will contain:

> A 300 Room 4-Star Deluxe Hotel
> Freehold Residential Apartments
> Time-Share Apartments
> Office Tower
> Shopping Center
> Private Beaches
> Themed Swimming Pools
> Gymnasium & Health Club
> Nightclub
> Restaurants
> Nearby Golf Course
> Exotic Gardens

The Chairman of Rakeen, Dr. Khater Massaad, had this to say about the project:

"Rakeen's fresh approach to development will act as a catalyst for growth and transform Ras Al Khaimah into a modern and flourishing destination that can capitalize on its huge tourism and commercial potential. Meticulous planning will ensure that Bab Al Bahr will develop into the ultimate resort destination, offering the most selective investor a gateway to island living."

A total of five residential buildings, incorporating a total of 710 residential freehold apartments, will be built at Bab Al Bahr: 110 studio apartments, 300 one-bedroom apartments, 220 two-bedroom apartments and 90 three-bedroom apartments. I find the architecture of the buildings to be quite stunning, looking like the ancient Mayan Pyramids! The landscaping of Bab Al Bahr is designed to have a tropical look, with coconut trees, flowers, shrubs, stones and waterfalls allowing easy internal and external accessibility flow of residential and visitor traffic.

"We will work closely with Rakeen to create a modern day haven, combining top of the line luxuries with the grace of nature to generate the ideal home in an idyllic island lifestyle. We are also committed to upholding Rakeen's responsible development methods, as Bab Al Bahr is the ultimate eco-friendly development and promotes clean, energy-efficient and pollution-free living," said Wahid Atalla, CEO, Spectrum Consultants, who are the representatives and consultants for the project.

Bab Al Bahr will be an oasis enjoyed by residents and visitors from all over the world. This resort will be instrumental in turning Ras Al Khaimah into a top international tourist destination!
