RAK Central

RAK Central is Marjan’s premier commercial district, envisioned as a business hub for Ras Al Khaimah. Bringing together Grade A offices, residential communities, hospitality, retail and public spaces, it is designed to support business activity, attract investment and contribute to the Emirate’s long-term economic growth.

• Marjan’s commercial district and the future business hub of Ras Al Khaimah.
• A mixed-use destination bringing together Grade A offices, residential apartments, hospitality, retail and lifestyle amenities.
• Master infrastructure completed in September 2025, establishing the foundations for development and investment.
• All 32 development plots sold, attracting a range of developers and investment partners.
• Planned capacity for more than 4,000 residential apartments and over 1,000 hotel keys.
• RAK Central Square will comprise five Grade A office towers, with completion targeted for Q4 2027.

RAK Central is planned as an integrated urban district where commercial activity sits alongside the amenities and services that support everyday life. Its combination of workplaces, homes, hospitality and retail is intended to create a connected environment for businesses, professionals, residents and visitors.

The public realm will incorporate landscaped spaces, active mobility infrastructure and a central town square, complementing the district’s commercial and residential developments. Access to the E11 highway and Ras Al Khaimah International Airport will connect RAK Central with the wider Emirate and regional business networks.

Covering a masterplan area of 3.1 million sq. ft., with a gross floor area of 8.37 million sq. ft., RAK Central will accommodate a range of commercial, residential, hospitality and retail developments.

At its core is RAK Central Square, planned to deliver five Grade A office towers and approximately 2.3 million sq. ft. of Grade A office space. The development is intended to attract regional and international businesses and strengthen the district’s commercial offering. Completion is targeted for Q4 2027.

The wider masterplan will incorporate:

• More than 4,000 residential apartments.
• Over 1,000 hotel keys.
• Grade A office and commercial space.
• Retail and food and beverage offerings.
• Open spaces, landscaped public areas and a central town square.
• More than 1,600 parking spaces across the development.

RAK Central Square’s planned specifications also include four VIP drop-off points, approximately 24,000 sq. ft. of food and beverage space, 11,000 sq. ft. of retail space and office floor plates of approximately 16,000 sq. ft.

Master infrastructure was completed in September 2025, providing the foundations for development across the district. This includes highway access, landscaping, green spaces and active mobility provisions.

This early investment reflects Marjan’s approach to development: establishing the infrastructure and conditions that give developers, investors and businesses greater confidence to participate in the district’s growth.

RAK Central will bring together commercial, residential and hospitality developments, supported by retail and lifestyle amenities. This mix is intended to serve businesses and investors while creating opportunities for people to live, work and spend time within the district.

Grade A office space is a central component of RAK Central’s commercial offering. The five towers at RAK Central Square are designed to accommodate regional and international businesses and support the growth of Ras Al Khaimah’s professional community.

Retail, food and beverage outlets and public spaces will complement the office environment, providing amenities for employees, visitors and the surrounding community.

The wider masterplan provides for more than 4,000 residential apartments, introducing a substantial residential component alongside the district’s commercial developments.

Proximity to workplaces, retail, hospitality and public spaces is intended to support a more integrated urban environment, where residents can access everyday amenities within the wider district.

With more than 1,000 hotel keys planned, RAK Central will accommodate hospitality offerings serving business travellers, visitors and the wider destination economy.

Food and beverage outlets, retail, landscaped spaces and a central town square will add to the district’s public realm, supporting opportunities for meetings, leisure and social activity.

All 32 development plots at RAK Central have been sold, reflecting strong developer participation in the district. Developers include Pantheon Developments, Iapis Development, Azure, BNW, Coldwell Views, Major Developments and DARA Properties, among others.

With its infrastructure in place and a mix of commercial, residential and hospitality uses planned, RAK Central is positioned to support the next phase of Ras Al Khaimah’s urban and economic development.

The developer has not yet released the official payment plan for purchasing properties in the location. Connect with reliable real estate agents in RAK Central for more information.
