If your wallet is doing that nervous laugh at the thought of a “luxury resort day pass,” Al Hamra Residence is here to restore your faith. At just AED 70 on weekdays and AED 100 on weekends, this is hands-down the most affordable full resort beach and pool day pass in RAK — and weekends even come with AED 55 in F&B credit thrown in.
You get full access to the beach and pool at Al Hamra Village, a genuinely pretty stretch of waterfront in one of RAK’s most established resort communities. It’s the kind of place where you can cannonball into the pool, dry off on a sun lounger, walk to the beach, repeat — all without doing any mental arithmetic about whether you can afford another mocktail.

The day pass is one of the most accessible in the emirate — AED 100 on weekdays, AED 150 on weekends — and kids under 6 get in free (up to 2 per paying adult).
Every pass comes with an AED 50 F&B voucher, which covers a drink and snack comfortably. The beach and pool setup is fresh, the views are great, and spots fill up fast — this is a first-come, first-served situation, so arriving early is genuinely the move here.

It’s a weekend-only offer, which makes it perfect for a spontaneous Saturday plan that doesn’t require a week of calendar coordination.
The Al Hamra Village stretch of beach is one of RAK’s loveliest — quiet, well-maintained, and far enough from the Marjan Island buzz to feel genuinely relaxing. A solid pick if you want resort access without the resort price tag.

Kids aged 6–11 pay just AED 75 (with AED 25 credit). And children under 6? Free — up to two per paying adult, with additional kids at just AED 50 each.
The pass includes full beach and pool access, changing rooms, and lockers — so you can come as you are and get changed on site. Note that gym and spa access aren’t included, but honestly, who needs a treadmill when there’s white sand? First-come, first-served so get there early, especially on weekends.

5. Cove Rotana Resort RAK — Best for Families with Kids

Meanwhile, you get access to a 600-metre private beach, Insta-worthy infinity pools, and waterslides.
At a flat AED 150 per person daily — same price every day of the week — and AED 75 for kids, with the entire amount fully redeemable on food and drinks, this is genuinely one of RAK’s most remarkable deals. That beachside burger and smoothie? Practically on the house. The daily timing runs all the way until 9PM — one of the latest in the emirate — which makes it perfect for catching the sunset with a full stomach.

6. DoubleTree by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan Island — Pure Beach & Pool Access
The DoubleTree day pass is straightforward — AED 150 on weekdays, AED 200 on weekends, AED 250 on public holidays — and it’s all about the access. Full beach and pool, sun loungers, and the entire resort’s beautiful Marjan Island waterfront is yours for the day. No F&B credit included, but the resort’s dining options are solid so you can budget your own spend.
It’s a clean, no-fuss option for those who just want a beautiful beachfront day without extras to track. DoubleTree’s Marjan Island location puts you right at the water’s edge with views across the Arabian Gulf that make working on a Monday feel genuinely criminal.

7. Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island — Best Day Pass with Waterpark
Mövenpick offers two distinct day pass experiences — the resort pass and Ula Beach Lounge — which makes it the most versatile option on Marjan Island. The resort pass starts at AED 150 on weekdays and AED 200 on weekends, includes pool and beach access, and comes with AED 100 F&B credit for adults and AED 75 for kids. Children under 3 are completely free.
The Wibit Floating Waterpark is included — except on Wednesdays when it takes a scheduled break, so plan accordingly. If you want to upgrade your vibe, the Ula Beach Lounge offers a more Mediterranean-chic experience at AED 200 weekdays / AED 250 weekends / AED 350 on public holidays, with AED 100–150 in F&B credit depending on the day.

- Phone: +971 7 246 0000
8. Sofitel Al Hamra Beach Resort — Best Day Pass with Breakfast Included
Sofitel’s day pass is arguably the best value proposition in the entire RAK lineup — and here’s why. For AED 200, you get breakfast at EAST restaurant plus AED 150 in F&B credit at Samphire. That’s effectively AED 350 worth of food and dining access included in your entry price. Then add access to RAK’s largest lagoon pool and a private beach, and you start wondering why you’d go anywhere else.
Kids aged 6–11 get in at half price. Children under 5 are free (up to two per paying adult). The lagoon pool alone is a destination in itself — it’s genuinely massive and one of the most photographed pools in the emirate.
- Adults: AED 200 (includes breakfast at EAST + AED 150 F&B credit at Samphire)
- Kids (6–11): 50% off
- Kids under 5: Free (up to 2 per adult)
- Includes: Private beach, RAK’s largest lagoon pool, towels & loungers
- Phone: +971 7 209 6000 / WhatsApp: +971 54 233 9751
WOW-RAK Expert Tip: Sofitel’s AED 200 pass is actually the best F&B-to-entry ratio of any day pass in RAK. Breakfast at EAST plus AED 150 dining credit means you’re getting more in food and drink value than you paid to get in. Arrive hungry.
9. Ritz-Carlton Al Hamra Beach — Best Day Pass for Water Sports
The Ritz-Carlton day pass is elegant, unhurried, and comes with a few extras that put it ahead of the standard beach-and-pool formula. At AED 200 per adult with AED 100 in F&B credit, you also get 20% off kayak and paddleboard rentals plus 20% off breakfast at Shore House restaurant — making it particularly good value if you’re planning an active day rather than a horizontal one.
The Al Hamra Beach setting is one of the quieter, more serene stretches in RAK — if you want five-star peace rather than five-star noise, this is the spot. Open daily from 9AM to 6PM. Advance booking recommended due to limited availability.
- Price: AED 200 per adult
- F&B Credit: AED 100
- Timings: 9AM – 6PM daily
- Includes: Private beach, pool, 20% off kayak/paddleboard, 20% off breakfast
- Phone: +971 7 204 8888
10. Anantara Mina Al Arab — Best Day Pass with Private Cabana Option
Anantara Mina Al Arab is the resort that makes people say “wait, this isn’t the Maldives?” — and the day pass does nothing to reduce that impression. Set among overwater villas and mangrove views on the edge of the Arabian Gulf, this is RAK’s most visually dramatic resort experience you can have without booking a room.
The standard day pass runs at AED 200 on weekdays (AED 100 F&B credit) and AED 250 on weekends (AED 100 F&B credit). Kids are well-catered for too at AED 100 weekdays and AED 150 weekends with AED 50 credit each.
But the real headline is the private cabana package — AED 400 for up to 4 people, which includes a fully exclusive cabana from 9AM–6PM (Monday to Thursday) plus AED 300 in F&B credit at the Beach House restaurant. Split four ways, that’s AED 100 each for a private cabana and AED 75 per person back in food and drinks. Genuinely one of RAK’s best group day deals.
- Weekdays: AED 200 adult / AED 100 child
- Weekends: AED 250 adult / AED 150 child
- F&B Credit: AED 100 adults / AED 50 kids
- Cabana Package: AED 400 for up to 4 people + AED 300 F&B credit (Mon–Thu)
- Timings: 9AM – 6PM
- Phone: 07 204 2222
11. Waldorf Astoria RAK — Most Luxurious Day Pass in Ras Al Khaimah
When only the best will do. Waldorf Astoria’s Vitamin Sea & Sun family day pass delivers the full luxury RAK daycation experience — private beach, leisure pools, sun loungers, and Kids Club access included for children. At AED 200 weekdays and AED 250 weekends for adults, it’s competitive with non-luxury options once you factor in the AED 150 dining credit that comes with every adult pass. Kids pay AED 100 with AED 75 credit.
There’s also a Sunset Birthday Escape — an adults-only (21+) experience at the Sunset Beach Lounge valid three days before or after your birthday, including a cake and two signature drinks on the house. Just bring your Emirates ID. And for frequent visitors, the Leisure Membership starts at AED 1,500 per month for individuals, giving unlimited pool, beach, fitness centre and tennis court access year-round.

- Weekends: AED 250 adult / AED 100 child
- F&B Credit: AED 150 adults / AED 75 kids

12. Rixos Bab Al Bahr — Best All-Inclusive Day Pass in RAK
Forget F&B credits and mental maths. The Rixos Bab Al Bahr Day Pass flips the model entirely – AED 399 per adult covers everything: lunch, free-flowing beverages all day, beach and pool access, Rixy Kids Club, Teens Club, and fitness classes at the Exclusive Sports Club. No top-ups, no tab to keep track of.
From 10AM to 6PM, you get the full resort experience on one of Marjan Island’s most sprawling beachfronts. The pyramid-style resort has multiple pools, a private beach, dedicated kids and teens spaces, and the kind of setup where the whole family genuinely separates and does their own thing – in a good way. Kids disappear into the Rixy Club, teens claim the Teens Club, and adults finally get a pool lounger and a drink that arrives without anyone asking for the bill.
Want to stretch the day into evening? Dinner can be added for AED 100 per adult and AED 50 per child (6-11 years) – a clean way to turn a daycation into a full evening out.
WOW-RAK Tip: At AED 399, this is the priciest day pass in RAK – but it’s also the only true all-inclusive one. If your group eats and drinks well, the maths work in your favour. Split lunch, beverages, and activities against the entry price and it stacks up.
- Adults: AED 399 (all-inclusive)
- Kids (6-11): 50% discount
- Kids under 6: Free
- Ages 12+: Charged as adults
- Timings: 10AM – 6PM
- Dinner add-on: AED 100 adult / AED 50 child (6-11)
- Includes: Lunch, beverages, beach & pool, Rixy Kids Club, Teens Club, fitness classes, 50% off spa
- Advance booking required
- Phone: +971 7 244 4400
13. InterContinental RAK Mina Al Arab — Best Day Pass for Wellness & Spa Access
The InterContinental offers something the others don’t — a day pass that includes full health club access with sauna and whirlpool on top of the beach and infinity pool. It’s the only RAK day pass that genuinely covers a wellness day from start to finish, making it ideal if your version of “beach day” includes a steam room session and a proper gym session before the pool.
At AED 200 on weekdays (Mon–Thu), it’s competitive. The weekend rate of AED 350 (Fri–Sun) is the highest in the emirate, but it comes with the full resort experience — infinity pool, pristine white sandy beach, health club, sauna, whirlpool, complimentary towel and water, and AED 100 in F&B credit redeemable at ShaSha Pool & Beach Bar between 12PM and 4PM. The pass runs from 8AM all the way to sunset, making it one of the longest day passes available.
- Weekdays (Mon–Thu): AED 200 per adult (AED 100 F&B credit)
- Weekends (Fri–Sun): AED 350 per adult (AED 100 F&B credit)
- Kids (5–12): AED 150
- Timings: 8AM – Sunset daily
- Includes: Infinity pool, beach, health club, sauna, whirlpool, towel, bottled water
- F&B at: ShaSha Pool & Beach Bar (12PM–4PM)
WOW-RAK Expert Tip: InterContinental is the only RAK day pass that includes sauna and whirlpool access. If you’re planning a recovery day — post-Jebel Jais hike, post-weekend, post-life — this is the most complete wellness day pass in the emirate.
RAK Resorts That Currently Do Not Offer Day Passes
Not every beachfront resort in RAK has jumped on the daycation bandwagon. If you’re planning to visit any of the below, call ahead — public day pass access is not currently available:
- Rixos Al Marid — no public day pass
- BM Beach Resort — currently closed
- Pullman Resort Al Marjan Island — no public day pass
- City Stay Beach Hotel Apartment – Closed
Before You Book: Essential Tips for RAK Day Passes
- Call ahead. Availability isn’t guaranteed, especially on weekends and public holidays. A 2-minute call saves a wasted trip.
- Bring valid ID. Some resorts (especially Waldorf Astoria) require an Emirates ID or passport, particularly for birthday or special offers.
- F&B credits expire same-day. You can’t roll them over. Plan your meals around them.
- First-come, first-served spots fill fast. Rove and Radisson both operate on availability basis — arriving by 10AM on weekends is smart.
- Check for blackout dates. Ramadan, public holidays, and resort events can change pricing or availability at short notice.
- Pack your own sunscreen. Resort sunscreen is luxury-priced. Bring SPF 50 and save your F&B credit for something more delicious.

Can I visit RAK resorts for the day from Dubai?

It depends on the resort. Rove and Radisson operate on a first-come, first-served basis with no advance booking — arrive early, especially on weekends. Most luxury resorts (Waldorf, Anantara, InterContinental, Ritz-Carlton) recommend advance booking or inquiry to confirm availability. A quick call the morning of is always a good idea regardless.
