Caribbean-origin developer in UAE since 2020 — 4 projects on Al Marjan Island, RAK, 2026–2028 delivery
Brief us on Range Development →Range Development was founded in 2011 and originally built its reputation developing luxury hospitality projects in the eastern Caribbean before entering the UAE market. The company subsequently entered the UAE market and has focused its local development activity on Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah.
All four tracked projects are on Al Marjan Island: The Beach House (targeting 2026), The Beach Vista and The Beach Residences West Wing (both targeting 2027), and Island Heights (targeting 2028). The concentration on one address reflects a focused land strategy within the Al Marjan Island development corridor.
Al Marjan Island in RAK has attracted significant developer interest and is adjacent to the Wynn Al Marjan Island resort site, which has drawn attention as a catalyst for wider community development. The Beach House's 2026 target places it as the nearest to handover and the most verifiable through construction progress.
Range Development's Caribbean background is in hospitality, not residential apartments — buyers should assess UAE-specific residential handover experience carefully. The RAK market's liquidity profile and demand drivers differ from Dubai, and Al Marjan Island's growth is partly dependent on the casino and resort development pipeline.
