Radisson Blu Hotels, RAK Central is a branded residence project by BNW Developments in RAK Central, Ras Al Khaimah's emerging mixed-use district. The project carries the Radisson Blu hotel name and is built around two towers on a shared podium. This guide stays on what the project page confirms: scale, typologies, starting price, payment plan and handover date.

The project in brief

  • Developer: BNW Developments.
  • Location: RAK Central.
  • Scale: two towers on a podium, 28 floors, 361 serviced apartments plus 51 retail units and 2 kiosks.
  • Typologies: studio suites, executive suites, and one presidential suite.
  • Starting price: from AED 1.35 million.
  • Payment plan: 30/70.
  • Handover: Q4 2029.
  • Status: off-plan, project page verified on 10 October 2026.

Project locations on our site are approximate; your adviser confirms the exact plot before you reserve.

Typologies: suites, not standard apartment layouts

The residences are organised as studio suites, executive suites, and a single presidential suite, a hotel-style naming convention that reflects the Radisson Blu brand. The published starting price of AED 1.35 million applies to the entry typology; executive suites and the presidential suite are priced on request, confirmed by your adviser once you know which format fits your plan.

The 30/70 payment plan

The project page shows a 30/70 structure: 30% of the price before handover, 70% on completion. On the AED 1.35 million starting price, that is AED 405,000 upfront against AED 945,000 at handover. The exact instalment schedule inside the 30% is not published, so treat it as confirmed by your adviser rather than assumed. Handover is set for Q4 2029, the furthest horizon in our Ras Al Khaimah selection, which gives a long window to plan the remaining 70%.

What "Radisson Blu" means here, and what it does not

The project page states that owners share hotel-grade service with hotel guests, alongside the 361 serviced apartments. That is what is confirmed. The page does not publish a rental program, a revenue-share arrangement, mandatory management terms, furnishing specifics or a service charge figure, so none of that is stated here either. Our guide on Radisson Blu RAK Central's hotel residences and the investor angle goes further into what the shared-service model means and what remains to be confirmed.

Who RAK Central suits

RAK Central is described on the project page's district context as a developing mixed-use area, and Radisson Blu RAK Central's own mix, 361 serviced apartments alongside 51 retail units and 2 kiosks, reflects that: residences built into a setting with retail on site rather than a purely residential island community. That profile tends to suit a buyer who wants a central, mixed-use address over a waterfront island setting, and who is comfortable with the longer Q4 2029 handover horizon that comes with a larger two-tower development. Buyers prioritising proximity to Al Marjan Island's collection of waterfront projects, or an earlier handover, are better served by comparing this project directly against the BNW Developments projects on the island itself, covered in our guide on Tonino Lamborghini Residences.

Golden Visa: where this project stands

The UAE's Golden Visa route for property investors requires a minimum of AED 2 million, under conditions confirmed by the authorities. At its published starting price, Radisson Blu RAK Central sits below that threshold. An executive suite or the presidential suite, priced on request, could reach or exceed AED 2 million, but that depends on the specific unit. Our guide on the AED 2 million Golden Visa threshold covers the general rule.

Buying costs and registration

Ras Al Khaimah does not use Dubai's DLD fee structure, Oqood registration or escrow rules; do not assume they apply here. Registering a sale with the Ras Al Khaimah municipality's land department (service ZL13) costs 2% of the market value from the buyer and 2% from the seller, plus AED 200 for plan issuance and AED 200 for the title. On an AED 1.35 million purchase, 2% works out to AED 27,000, though the real amount depends on the value used and the nature of the sale. Off-plan registration fees specific to this project are not published, so confirm them with your adviser.
