BNW Developments to develop the World’s First Dolce Residences by Wyndham in Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah

Published On : 04 Aug, 2026

DUBAI, UAE, 3rd August 2026 BNW Developments, in partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, announced the signing of Dolce Residences Ras Al Khaimah, Al Marjan Island. Set on the hotly anticipated Al Marjan Island—rapidly emerging as one of the UAE’s most sought-after lifestyle and investment destinations—the contemporary boutique development reimagines coastal living through refined design and immersive lifestyle offerings.

Offering 93 premium residential units and five exclusive retail spaces, all slated for handover in Q4 2028, the signing marks the debut of the world’s first Dolce Residences by Wyndham—a design-forward brand rooted in its surroundings, with distinctive character, elevated amenities and curated experiences.

The boutique-scale, design-led development is crafted to bring soulful design to the heart of the coastline, offering an intimate environment that prioritises wellness, experience, and balance. As a project that values refined simplicity over excess, Dolce Residences focuses on a curated lifestyle where residents can find a harmonious blend of sophisticated design and everyday tranquility.

Dr. (CA) Ankur Aggarwal, Chairman and Founder of BNW Developments said, “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. This project proudly marks our second significant partnership with the Wyndham group, further strengthening our shared vision for sophisticated living in the region.”

Sheikh Saqr Bin Omar Al Qasimi, CEO of Marjan Development said, "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. BNW Developments' decision to bring the world's first Dolce Residences here, and to do so as their second partnership with Wyndham, speaks directly to the momentum we are building as a destination of choice for discerning developers and residents alike. Al Marjan Island continues to attract the kind of boutique, design-forward concepts that diversify our island's offering and reinforce Ras Al Khaimah's position as one of the region's most compelling investment and lifestyle destinations."

The architectural language of Dolce Residences is thoughtful, balanced, and timeless. The building is efficiently positioned to maximise views, ensuring a strong visual and spatial connection to the natural landscape.

Residents will also benefit from exclusive Wyndham privileges, including a one-year complimentary Wyndham Rewards Platinum membership, preferred rates across more than ~8,400 hotels worldwide, and priority access to member-only offers and promotions.

Commenting on the partnership, Dimitris Manikis, President EMEA, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, said, “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. The branded residences sector has been calling for a brand like Dolce — one that blends character, style, and a true sense of place with elevated hospitality experiences — making it a natural fit for this evolving market.

We are especially proud to introduce the brand in Ras Al Khaimah, one of the UAE’s fastest-rising lifestyle destinations, and bring Dolce’s distinctive hospitality-led approach to life on Al Marjan Island through this landmark development partnering with one of the most successful developers across the UAE. Backed by Wyndham’s global expertise, the project will deliver a fresh and differentiated vision for upscale coastal living in the region.”

Branded residences are among the fastest-growing segments of real estate, especially in the Gulf, as buyers and investors seek homes that combine everyday comfort with the assurance of a trusted hospitality leader like Wyndham, which has a presence in ~100 countries globally. Professionally managed services, consistent standards, and access to hotel-style amenities are increasingly seen as key differentiators in major urban markets. This trend is perfectly encapsulated by BNW Developments’ second partnership with Wyndham. Through this collaboration, BNW continues to bridge the gap between intentional living and the world-class service standards for which Wyndham is globally recognised.
