Banyan Tree, Ras Al Khaimah

Banyan Tree Ras Al Khaimah

With dazzling views of the Arabian Gulf, and sun-kissed private beaches lapped by crystal waters and dotted with swaying desert palms, the Banyan Tree Ras al Khaimah Beach has all the elements you could wish for in a romantic retreat. Situated in the exclusive enclave of Al Jazirah al Hamra, and close to a charmingly quaint town centre, the resort offers a sense of total relaxation and escapism, with the intriguing air of a Bedouin fishing village. Since it opened in 2010, it has more than lived up to the expectations of luxury invoked by its brand name, while at the same time incorporating its own totally distinctive features, ensuring a hotel experience like no other.

One of the many unique elements of this astonishing resort is its design and layout. It occupies a slender strip of land across a backwater bay, with low rise buildings spread over soft sand. The distinctively crafted and shaped structure follows the natural contours of the shoreline, in a shoestring-like formation. Because of this unique arrangement, your arrival and check-in here will be quite unlike any other. Guests sail from a drop-off point on the main shoreline in an open boat, across the backwater to the private sandy peninsula on which the resort is situated, greatly enhancing the mystique and magic of the experience. As the boat docks, guests are greeted by eager staff and brought to the main pavilion where reception is located.
