VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

Set on a picturesque peninsula in Ras al Khaimah, against the rugged Hajar Mountains and the Arabian Sea, Anantara Mina Al Arab Ras Al Khaimah Resort offers a hard-to-find blend of luxury, adventure and serenity. For guests interested in exploring the emirate’s many natural wonders, this idyllic resort, with 174 accommodations, verdant gardens, a spa, an infinity pool, a private sandy beach and several dining venues, promises a memorable stay away from the bustle of the UAE’s cities. Though, the most memorable element is arguably the overwater villas — a first for the emirate.

Yet it remains a destination for embracing the outdoors. With cruises, watersports (like kayaking, jet-skiing, flyboarding and wakeboarding), tennis lessons and a padel court, a holiday here can be as active and adventurous as you like.

The resort’s location on a natural beach and next to a tranquil natural mangrove reserve has resulted in its commitment to preserving the surrounding delicate ecosystem and its resident sea turtles, migratory birds and occasional dugong. These efforts include waste reduction, efficient energy consumption, elimination of plastic and the use of eco-friendly building materials, like sustainable wood and recycled fabrics in the furniture and fittings.

Our Inspector's Highlights

The spacious rooms and suites wear an understated contemporary aesthetic with Arabesque touches, drawing inspiration from the seaside location. There are gorgeous views of the Arabian Sea, landscaped gardens and the swimming pool from private balconies and terraces. Some accommodations have direct access to the private sandy beach.
The luxury resort’s beautiful Maldivian-style overwater villas provide uninterrupted views of the natural mangrove lagoon from deck plunge pools. The thatch-roofed villas come with generous living and dining areas and expansive bedrooms with walk-in wardrobes and plush king beds. Bathrooms have twin vanities, Bvlgari amenities, freestanding bathtubs and indoor and outdoor rain showers. Modern comforts such as pillow and soap menus, Nespresso machines and Apple TV and Chromecast ensure a luxurious stay.
For villa guests, the attentive villa host service goes the extra mile to accommodate special preferences and attend to requests like drawing a bath, serving cocktails to your sun deck or arranging an in-villa dinner with a chef and a butler.
At Anantara Spa, rejuvenate with a signature Thai treatment or a glow-restoring facial using organic products, delivered in a luxurious spa suite or couple’s suite. The Yam Khang Fire Therapy is a unique service in which a therapist massages your body with hands that have been dipped in medicated oil and heated on an iron khang over fire, to alleviate aches and energy blockages. Arrive early to unwind in the steam room, sauna and whirlpool before your treatment.
At Southeast Asian restaurant Mekong, enjoy sumptuous fare from Thailand, Vietnam and China, served with contemporary flair. Sample dishes such as lobster and scallop dumplings and the grilled duck roll. To dine alfresco in a stunning setting, ask for a waterfront table on the terrace. The Beach House is a breezy spot on the beach for a Mediterranean lunch or a sundowner and shisha by the ocean.
