InterContinental RAK

Just 60 minutes from Dubai International Airport, this world-class resort provides seamless access to luxury while keeping guests far removed from the city's frenetic pace.

Whether you're here for a beachfront escape, a wellness retreat, or an all-inclusive getaway, this resort caters to every need with effortless sophistication.
Bathed in natural light, the elegantly appointed rooms, suites, and villas at InterContinental Ras Al Khaimah redefine modern Arabian luxury. Designed with a harmonious blend of contemporary aesthetics and refined comfort, each space offers a private balcony with sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf, creating the ultimate setting for tranquillity. Thoughtful touches, from high-end amenities to bespoke service, ensure that every guest experiences an elevated level of indulgence. For those seeking the pinnacle of exclusivity, club-level suites and beachfront villas provide a private haven with personalised butler service and private pools.

Amanda Says:
The UAE, and Dubai in particular, has an undeniable allure, the promise of impeccable service, flawless weather, and unrivalled luxury. Yet, sometimes, after a hectic stretch, staying in a fast-paced city isn’t what I need. In those times, I turn to Ras Al Khaimah (often referred to as the underdog of UAE beach destinations) for a slower, more rejuvenating escape. On several occasions, I have chosen InterContinental Ras Al Khaimah, and it has never failed to deliver. The beachfront setting, excellent cuisine, and great service are on par with what you find in Dubai’s resorts, yet with a far more relaxed ambience. Think luxury without the noise.
