Anantara Mina Al Arab Ras Al Khaimah Resort will be the brand’s ninth UAE hotel

Minor Hotels' new resort in Ras Al Khaimah is scheduled to launch later this year.

Located on Mina Al Arab Island in Ras Al Khaimah, Anantara Mina Al Arab is set among 1.5km of mangroves and lagoons in a natural reserve.

A 45-minute drive from Dubai International Airport and just 15 minutes from Ras Al Khaimah International Airport, the resort is designed to blend in with its natural surroundings.

Comprising 174 guest rooms, suites and villas, including the first over-water villas in the emirate, the accommodation has been built with sustainability in mind, using eco-friendly materials, such as sustainable wood and recycled fabrics and plastics.

The resort will also operate a range of sustainable initiatives including greywater waste recycling, thermodynamics and solar panels for water heating, and a water bottling plant.

All rooms will offer a balcony or terrace with views of the lagoon, the sea or surrounding landscapes.

The over-water villas will deliver an unrivalled guest experience with living space including an expansive terrace. All over-water villas will have access to a secluded private beach and its own beach cabana with a la carte service.

The onsite Anantara Spa will offer a menu of signature spa journeys inspired by Arabian and Turkish culture with seven treatment rooms catering separately to men and women as well as couples.
