Of all the seven United Arab Emirates, Ras Al-Khaimah is one of the top Emirates in which to live. After all, it’s everyone’s dearest wish to live in a house, neighborhood, town and region which makes you happy and fits in with your lifestyle and Ras Al-Khaimah is one of those areas which manages to do this for a great range of people.
For a lot of people their definition of happy living involves a touch of luxury. This might involve lavish gold marble staircases and indoor Jacuzzis, for others it might simply mean a large garden or a first floor balcony. Whatever your idea of luxury is and whatever your budget might be, there’s likely to be something in Ras Al-Khaimah to suit your desires. The name of this emirate translates into English as ‘top of the tent’. The word ‘tent’ we’re not sure about as a large percentage of the properties here are luxury apartments, but ‘top’ we do agree on it.
As it’s just north of the United Arab Emirates’ largest city of Dubai (which is a strong contender in the market of luxury apartment condominiums and coastal resorts) Ras Al-Khaimah has a prime location for anyone to settle down in. There are several brand new and pre-construction luxury apartment buildings in Ras Al-Khaimah right now, with a range available to rent or buy at all times. The designers, owners and letting agents are very understanding about what buyers are looking for in a luxury property and this is exactly why a large majority of the buildings (for example ‘The Cove’ and ‘Mina Al Arab’) are hailed as beach resorts and are in very close proximity to the coast, with staggering views over the Persian Gulf.
If, however, you’re looking for inland properties that are closer to city life and out of the way of the bustling coastal tourist industry, then look to developments such as Julfar Towers. Located just outside the heart of the city center, this $109,000,000 two-tower development offers a range of different apartments (studios to 4 beds), private parking, a crèche and a gym.
Don’t forget that with its very own airport, a beautiful creek and over 200 thousand inhabitants, the emirate of Ras Al-Khaimah property as a whole has everything going for it. From cultural beauty and unique gastronomy to great transport links, plenty of job opportunities and top-notch amenities like health departments and shopping malls.
