About RAK Central
RAK Central is a major master-planned development set to become Ras Al Khaimah’s primary Central Business District. Planned across a large mainland site near Al Marjan Island and Al Hamra Village, the project is designed to bring together commercial, residential, and lifestyle elements within a single, well-connected urban environment.
The development focuses on creating a modern business and living hub that supports daily work life while offering convenient access to leisure, hospitality, and essential services. With a mix of offices, residential buildings, hotels, retail spaces, and public areas, RAK Central aims to establish a walkable and integrated district rather than a standalone commercial zone.
Its proximity to key resorts, shopping destinations, and entertainment areas positions RAK Central as an important link between Ras Al Khaimah’s growing tourism sector and its expanding business landscape.
Community Highlights
Purpose-built central business district
RAK Central is planned as Ras Al Khaimah’s dedicated CBD, designed to support corporate offices, mixed-use developments, and professional services. The district is expected to play a central role in attracting regional and international businesses to the emirate.
Mixed-use urban environment
The master plan integrates office buildings, residential units, hotels, retail outlets, and food and beverage venues. This mixed-use approach allows people to work, live, and socialise within the same district, reducing reliance on long commutes.
Phased master development
RAK Central will be developed over multiple phases. The initial phase focuses on delivering significant office space alongside development-ready plots, setting the foundation for future residential, hospitality, and commercial expansion.
Residential and lifestyle components
Upon completion, the district is expected to include thousands of residential apartments alongside hotels and serviced accommodation. Residential buildings will offer modern layouts supported by shared amenities, green spaces, and pedestrian-friendly streets.
Architectural and design focus
Key developments within RAK Central include landmark office and mixed-use buildings designed by internationally recognised architecture and planning firms. The district’s layout emphasises connectivity, visual identity, and long-term functionality.
Sustainability and connectivity
RAK Central places emphasis on open spaces, landscaped areas, and sustainable building practices. Energy-efficient systems, integrated transport networks, and well-planned road infrastructure are intended to support long-term environmental and urban sustainability.
