Branded residences at Al Hamra beach: Waldorf Astoria's scarcity model
Waldorf Astoria Residences Ras Al Khaimah holds just 33 homes, with one Sky Palace triplex already acquired. Al Hamra calls it one of three standalone Waldorf Astoria Residences addresses worldwide.
Branded residences at Al Hamra beach, in Ras Al Khaimah, means one specific building in our records: Waldorf Astoria Residences Ras Al Khaimah, a single 33-home address rather than a large multi-building masterplan.
A deliberately small total
The entire building holds 33 homes: 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, plus 4 and 5 bedroom penthouses. One Sky Palace triplex, the largest configuration in the building, has already been acquired by a buyer, according to our fiche, leaving a smaller pool of apartments and penthouses still available.
Why Al Hamra frames it as one of three worldwide
Al Hamra positions this building as one of only three standalone Waldorf Astoria Residences addresses in the world, as opposed to branded residences attached to a larger hotel complex. That standalone framing is part of what differentiates the scarcity model here from branded towers elsewhere in the region that combine hundreds of units with a hotel operation.
The link to Wynn Al Marjan Island
A private marine shuttle connects residents to Wynn Al Marjan Island, where the operator has announced an integrated resort opening in 2027. No travel time for the shuttle is confirmed in our fiche, and none is estimated here.
What is still unresolved
Price and payment plan remain on request across every configuration in the building, apartments and penthouses alike. No official off-plan registration fee is published specifically for this project, unlike Costa Mare nearby, which discloses a 3,000 AED RERA fee at reservation.
How it compares with its own neighbourhood
Within the same Al Hamra Village area, Falcon Island takes the opposite approach: 502 homes across two gated islands, rather than a single branded building of 33. A buyer weighing branded scarcity against a larger villa community effectively chooses between these two very different products from the same developer, Al Hamra.
A quick reference table
| Item | What is published |
|---|---|
| Total homes | 33 |
| Configurations | 2 and 3 bed apartments, 4 and 5 bed penthouses |
| Already sold | 1 Sky Palace triplex |
| Price / payment plan | On request |
Golden Visa: not confirmed until priced
A property investment of at least AED 2 million opens the door to a Golden Visa application, subject to conditions confirmed by the authorities. Given the branded, low-volume nature of this building, a price above that threshold is plausible for most remaining configurations, though nothing is confirmed until the developer releases a figure.

Branded addresses across the wider emirate
Waldorf Astoria Residences is one of several branded options now marketed in Ras Al Khaimah, alongside Radisson Blu Hotels RAK Central and Tonino Lamborghini Residences, both on a larger scale with 361 and 378 units respectively. Each brand targets a different proposition: Waldorf Astoria on scarcity, Radisson Blu on shared hotel-level service, and Tonino Lamborghini on a wider mix of unit types under one automotive-inspired name.
A disclosure repeated across every fiche
The official Ras Al Khaimah destination page states that project locations are approximate and asks buyers to confirm the exact plot with their adviser. The fiche for Waldorf Astoria Residences separately confirms that current availability and unit-specific terms are set by your adviser, not assumed from general marketing material.
Why the branding extends beyond the name
Al Hamra's positioning of this address as one of only three standalone Waldorf Astoria Residences worldwide is a specific claim about the brand's global rarity, not a generic marketing label; it distinguishes this project from branded towers that simply license a hotel name onto a much larger residential volume.
What your adviser confirms before any reservation
Beyond price, your adviser confirms the exact remaining configurations among the 32 homes still available, since the Sky Palace triplex has already sold, along with any reservation form and deposit structure Al Hamra has defined for this specific building.
