Wynn Resorts Limited (WYNN) said the construction of its newest resort in Ras Al Khaimah, located 50 minutes from the Dubai International Airport, is on schedule, with 55% of the structural concrete now complete.
Wynn Al Marjan Island, the first integrated resort in the UAE, is witnessing the completion of one floor per week. The resort, that has grown by 44 metres in the last 100 days, is expected to be completed in December 2025.
The concrete structure is complete up to the 26th floor of the main resort tower, with walls extending to the 29th floor.
Wynn Design and Development (WDD) has employed more than 90 talented architects, designers, and creative visionaries who are overseeing all facets of the project’s design and development.
Wynn Resorts maintains its own full-service design and architectural team.
There are currently 9,100 construction team members onsite, and more than 100 concrete trucks in place on the site per day.
The resort will offer 1,542 rooms and well-appointed suites. To-date, the tower structure has been completed for 1,121 guest rooms, or 73% of the total.
Fit out work is underway in approximately 820 rooms – including walls, floors, and ceilings, as well as all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services.
The elevator and escalator installation also began in November.
The 22 restaurants, lounges, and bars will range from high-energy social destinations to fine dining. Contributing to the atmosphere, a nightclub featuring the legendary “Only At Wynn” line-up of world-renowned DJs and a beach club will be situated on its own white sand beach on the Arabian Gulf.
There will be an extensive poolscape adjacent to the beach with multiple swimming and wading pools, water features, private cabanas, and tropical landscaping covering 3.6 hectares.
The resort will also include a 15,000-sqm shopping promenade filled with the world’s top luxury boutiques, a five-star spa, and a salon.
The 7,500-sqm meetings and events centre, along with a theatre, will offer exciting parties, events, and bespoke entertainment experiences.
Wynn Resorts is developing the project in partnership with Marjan and RAK Hospitality Holding. It is anticipated to be the first integrated gaming resort in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region. – TradeArabia News Service
