One Broker Group serves as the exclusive sales partner for the development.

“This project has always been about more than buildings. It is about creating a destination that reflects the very best of what Ras Al Khaimah has to offer, a place where world-class architecture, considered design and genuine luxury hospitality come together against one of the most beautiful natural seṄngs in the region," said Anwar Aman, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of WOW Resorts. "The architectural vision led by Tony Ashai and the team at Architecture Design Unit under Taseer Buchh captures exactly that ambition, and the amenities we are bringing, from our seven dining concepts and the signature spa to the lagoon and the residential lifestyle offering, have been curated to set a new benchmark for branded living in the GCC. Today’s signing brings the construction expertise of CRBC together with the local delivery strength of Edifice Middle East, under a shared commitment to the quality and craksmanship this development deserves. We look forward to the chapter ahead.”

Bhupender ‘Bruce’ Patel, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of WOW Resorts, added: “Today’s signing is a moment of real pride for everyone associated with this project. From the beginning, our ambition has been to create something that does justice to its seṄng, an extraordinary piece of coastline on one of the most exciting island developments in the world, and to the calibre of brand that it carries."

"Bringing CRBC onto the project, alongside our continued work with Edifice Middle East, gives us the combined strength and depth we need to deliver a property of this complexity and ambition. CRBC’s porVolio of landmark builds across more than sixty countries speaks for itself, and Edifice brings the local capability and accountability that a project of this stature demands. We are deeply grateful to the leadership of Ras Al Khaimah and to Marjan for the vision they have set for this island, and we look forward to the work ahead.”
