BNW Developments, in partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, has announced the signing of Dolce Residences Ras Al Khaimah, Al Marjan Island.
The project will mark the debut of the world’s first Dolce Residences by Wyndham, according to the developer. The boutique residential development will include 93 premium units and five retail spaces, with handover scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2028.
Located on Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, the development is positioned around coastal living, hospitality-led services and design-led residences. The project adds to the growing branded residences pipeline on the island, which continues to attract hospitality and lifestyle brands.
Dr. Ankur Aggarwal, Chairman and Founder of BNW Developments, said Dolce Residences reflects the company’s focus on quality and the lifestyle appeal of Al Marjan Island.
“Dolce Residences is a commitment to quality and a celebration of the serene lifestyle that Al Marjan Island represents. By combining boutique intimacy with the prestige of the Wyndham brand, we are creating a sanctuary that reflects the future of Ras Al Khaimah as a global destination,” he said.
He added that the project marks BNW Developments’ second significant partnership with Wyndham, further strengthening the companies’ shared focus on branded residential living in the region.
Sheikh Saqr Bin Omar Al Qasimi, CEO of Marjan Development, said the arrival of Dolce Residences by Wyndham reflects the confidence global hospitality brands are placing in Ras Al Khaimah.
“The arrival of Dolce Residences by Wyndham on Al Marjan Island is another clear signal of the confidence global hospitality brands are placing in Ras Al Khaimah,” he said.
He added that BNW Developments’ decision to bring the world’s first Dolce Residences to Al Marjan Island reinforces the emirate’s position as an investment and lifestyle destination.
The development has been designed to maximise views and maintain a strong connection with the surrounding coastal landscape. Its concept focuses on wellness, balance and everyday tranquillity, with a more intimate scale than larger resort-style residential projects.
Residents will also receive Wyndham-linked privileges, including a one-year complimentary Wyndham Rewards Platinum membership, preferred rates across Wyndham’s global hotel network and access to member offers and promotions.
Dimitris Manikis, President EMEA, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, said the signing marks an important step in Wyndham’s branded residences growth strategy across the EMEA region.
“The signing of the world’s first Dolce Residences by Wyndham marks a defining moment for Wyndham’s branded residences growth strategy across the EMEA region and reflects the strength of our expanding partnership with BNW Developments,” he said.
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts describes itself as one of the world’s largest hotel franchising companies, with approximately 8,400 hotels across around 100 countries. Its branded residences platform includes Dolce Residences by Wyndham among its residential concepts.
Earlier this year, Skift reported that Wyndham was preparing to introduce Dolce and Vienna House branded residences on Al Marjan Island, reflecting the group’s wider push into residential living in the Gulf.
The signing comes as Al Marjan Island continues to build momentum as one of Ras Al Khaimah’s key residential, hospitality and investment destinations. For BNW Developments, the project expands its branded residences portfolio in the emirate and adds another boutique-scale development to the island’s growing pipeline.
