Mina Al Arab is an unprecedented master-planned waterfront destination developed by RAK Properties (the emirate’s largest publicly listed developer). Spanning an immense 44 million sq ft entirely across Raha and Hayat Islands, the masterplan is profoundly dedicated to ecological preservation, tightly protecting its pristine mangroves and lagoons. The elite real estate portfolio forcefully delivers a premium mix of luxury villas, ultra-exclusive branded residences, and high-yield apartments, all supported by massive five-star resorts and massive retail spaces.
The community is divided into three districts, with a mix of completed neighbourhoods and new off-plan developments:
—
Hayat Island
Island living
Waterfront apartments, villas, branded residences and two five-star beachfront resorts.
—
Raha Island
Downtown Mina
The newest part of the community, centred around Mina Boulevard, the marina and recent apartment developments.
—
The Lagoons
Established neighbourhoods
Completed villa and townhouse communities with landscaped parks and waterways.
Mina Al Arab is moving into a new phase of growth as RAK Properties continues to expand the masterplan with new residential and lifestyle projects. In 2025, the developer announced an
AED 5 billion development pipeline for Mina, with most upcoming projects focused on Raha Island and the Downtown Mina district. Raha Island is at the centre of this expansion, with new additions including Mina Boulevard, marina facilities, Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Ras Al Khaimah and Four Seasons Resort and Residences. Mina Al Arab also benefits from its proximity to Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah’s main tourism destination and the future home of Wynn Al Marjan Island. The growth of the emirate’s tourism sector is expected to support demand for coastal communities in the surrounding area.
