Al Marjan Island Casino
The Al Marjan Island casino will be part of the first-ever legal gaming resort in the UAE, expected to open in early 2027. This landmark project, built by Wynn Resorts, is changing the image of tourism in Ras Al Khaimah and attracting attention from all over the world.
Al Marjan Island is an artificial archipelago off the coast of Ras Al Khaimah. Known for its calm beaches and luxury hotels, it will soon be home to something the UAE has never had before—a licensed casino. The project is called Wynn Al Marjan Island, and it's already under construction.
The Wynn project is not just about gaming. It’s being designed as a seven-star luxury resort. The tower will have over 1,500 rooms, suites, and residences. A section on the upper floors will feature 313 premium suites, offering high-end hospitality with unmatched views of the Arabian Gulf.
- Will Wynn Al Marjan have a casino?
- Yes, Wynn Resorts has confirmed that the property will have a gaming area, making it the first licensed casino in the UAE.
- Is Ras Al Khaimah opening a casino?
- Yes. Ras Al Khaimah is the first emirate to move forward with a gaming license. This is a major part of the Ras Al Khaimah casino investment strategy.
- Which is the first casino in Dubai?
- Actually, Dubai doesn’t have any casinos. Gambling is still banned there. Wynn Al Marjan will be the first official casino in the country, located in Ras Al Khaimah.
- Is there an entry fee for Al Marjan Island?
- No, you can enter Al Marjan Island freely. However, Wynn Al Marjan Island and its services will have their own pricing.
This section shows why this move matters. Ras Al Khaimah’s casino development is more than a hotel—it's a sign of big changes in the UAE’s tourism model.
- The Ras Al Khaimah casino investment is estimated at $3.9 billion
- Over 1,500 rooms and 24 restaurants
- Al Marjan Island casino opening date set for early 2027
- Strong tourism push with new regulatory bodies to oversee gaming
- Expected to create thousands of jobs and attract global visitors
The Al Marjan Island casino will be the UAE’s first legal gaming destination and is scheduled to launch in 2027. With the major Ras Al Khaimah casino investment led by Wynn Resorts, this project marks a new chapter in Gulf tourism. No casino exists in Dubai yet, so Wynn Al Marjan Island will take the spotlight as the region’s most awaited luxury and entertainment hub.
