Looks like Ras Al Khaimah’s Al Marjan Island is about to get a serious upgrade — and this time, it’s not another resort or beach club. The Saudi German Hospital Group has officially signed an agreement to build a 100-bed, multi-disciplinary specialty hospital on the island. Think of it as luxury meets lifesaving — where world-class healthcare will be just as accessible as the nearest infinity pool.
This new facility is set to offer a full suite of medical, rehabilitation, and cosmetic services, catering not only to island residents and visitors but also to the wider RAK community. And yes, whether you’ve overdone your spa day or just need a little post-vacation glow-up, they’ve got you covered.
Health Meets Hospitality
Al Marjan Island is already known for its dreamy hotels, pristine beaches, and island vibes. But now, it’s stepping into the wellness big league. The Saudi German Hospital’s new branch aims to make healthcare as seamless as your staycation checkout. Initially launching with seven medical specialties, the hospital plans to expand to 13 disciplines by 2025, scaling up its medical and nursing teams accordingly.
In the words of Eng. Sobhi A Batterjee, President of Saudi German Hospital Group: “With the new hospital in Al Marjan Island, we aim to provide excellent and integrated healthcare services that will meet the needs of the people.” Translation: RAK’s residents and tourists won’t have to drive to Dubai for top-tier medical care anymore.
A Perfect Fit for Al Marjan’s Vision
Eng. Abdullah Al Abdooli, CEO of Al Marjan Island, couldn’t be happier to welcome the healthcare giant. “The addition of the hospital will add to our appeal as a truly integrated destination,” he shared, pointing out that the new hospital fits perfectly with the island’s mission to be a global hub for tourism, wellness, and investment.
And honestly, it makes perfect sense. Al Marjan Island already boasts 7.8 kilometres of beaches, 8,000 hotel rooms, 6,500 residential units, and even 400-room wellness retreats. A cutting-edge hospital is the missing piece in this luxury-lifestyle puzzle — ensuring that residents and travelers alike can experience “care” in every sense of the word.
A New Chapter for RAK’s Growth Story
Beyond the stethoscopes and scrubs, this project signals something bigger — Ras Al Khaimah’s evolution into a fully self-sustained modern emirate. It’s not just about sun and sand anymore; it’s about quality of life. And with a trusted healthcare leader like Saudi German Hospital setting up shop, the emirate’s commitment to infrastructure, wellness, and long-term growth just got a healthy boost.
So yes, Al Marjan Island is about to get its own medical marvel — where cutting-edge care meets coastal calm. Because in RAK, even your recovery comes with a sea view.
