Ardee Waterfront is a masterplanned beachfront destination on Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, developed by Ardee. Combining branded residential living, hospitality and leisure facilities, the development forms one of two distinct components within Ardee's wider Al Marjan Island masterplan, alongside Ardee Downtown. Its coastal setting and relationship with the Fairmont hospitality brand define its residential and lifestyle proposition.
The development spans approximately 1.7 million sq. ft. of gross floor area, with 350 metres of sunset-facing beachfront overlooking the Arabian Gulf. Its AED 2 billion development brings together Fairmont Residences Al Marjan Island and Hotel Fairmont Al Marjan Island, establishing a residential and hospitality destination with a shared coastal identity.
Architecture is by Pelli Clarke & Partners, with the design shaped around the natural character of the coastline. The relationship between the built environment and the beachfront is central to the planning, with the shoreline providing a defining feature of the wider residential and hospitality setting.
Fairmont Residences Al Marjan Island forms the residential centrepiece of Ardee Waterfront. The collection includes apartments, townhouses and private seafront villas, catering to different preferences for beachfront ownership. Hotel Fairmont Al Marjan Island complements the residential development, bringing an established international hospitality brand to the destination.
The wider waterfront environment is planned around residential facilities, hospitality, dining and leisure. Dedicated residential amenities include swimming pools, fitness and wellness facilities, residents' lounges, dining spaces and direct beach access. Additional facilities across the wider community include landscaped parks, sports facilities, children's play areas, a retail and dining district, jogging and cycling routes, and boat access.
Ardee Waterfront forms part of a larger 5.2 million sq. ft. masterplan on Al Marjan Island, with a gross development value exceeding AED 15 billion. The second major component, Ardee Downtown, introduces a different character through a mixed-use urban district combining residential, commercial, hospitality and retail uses. Together, the two developments are planned to create a connected destination with more than 4,000 premium residences at full build-out.
The distinction between the two precincts is central to Ardee's vision for Al Marjan Island. While Downtown is organised around an urban environment with retail, dining and public spaces, Waterfront focuses on beachfront living and hospitality. This gives the wider masterplan two complementary residential settings, with Ardee Waterfront establishing its identity around the coastline and the Fairmont brand.
