Wynn Al Marjan Island, a casino resort project in the United Arab Emirates involving Wynn Resorts Ltd., will “open to the public in early 2027,” it said in a news release on Monday.
“The full tower height of over 300 meters is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2025,” the company said. “Currently, the [photo] structure is about 40 meters tall,” it added.
Wynn Resorts on Monday unveiled new images of Wynn Al Marjan Island, which is under construction in the Middle East’s United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ras Al Kaimah.
The facility on Wynn Al Marjan Island will include a 1,542-room hotel, including 22 private villas in the marina adjacent to the resort. The property will feature a 7,500-square-meter event center, a 15,000-square-meter retail venue, 22 restaurants, bars, and a theater, according to Wynn Resort.
Wynn Design and Development is overseeing the design and development of the project.
“Historically, the area around Ras al-Kaima has been a signal of navigation and important trade in the Arabian Gulf,” the announcement quoted Todd Lenahan, president and chief creative officer of Win Design and Development
He added, “We designed the 300-meter-tall resort tower with Ras al-Kaima’s historical role as a great navigation sentinel in mind. We hope that this will be a new landmark, a new signal for Ras al-Kaima travelers all over the world.”
The project was described as a $3.9 billion venture project involving local partners, with Wynn Resorts as a 40% stake investor. Wynn Resorts is the parent company of Macau casino operator Wynn Macao.
Wynn Resorts’ Wynn Al Marjan Island regional partners are Marjan LLC and RAK Hospitality Holding LLC.
In February, Craig Billings, chief executive of Wynn Resorts, described the Ras Al Khaimah plan as “a real growth opportunity for the UAE to further diversify our portfolio and expand our brand into new markets.”
Local authorities have not yet passed a bill that would allow gambling, but Wynn Resorts has said it is a plan to include gaming facilities.
Jim Murren, the former chairman and CEO of MGM Resorts, was appointed president of an UAE organization called the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) in September. The organization will regulate commercial games and national lottery tickets.
