Do you really start a report on a hotel in the United Arab Emirates with “A fairy tale from 1001 nights …”? That would simply be too clichéd.
A fact that almost sounds like it: Ras Al Khaimah, the northernmost of the United Arab Emirates, enchants with its breathtaking coastal landscapes and majestic mountains. This magical destination effortlessly blends tradition and modernity: historic forts and museums tell of a rich past, while traditional souks vibrate alongside luxurious resorts and modern shopping malls. The magic of Ras Al Khaimah lies in its diversity, where the ancient heritage of the Emirates seamlessly merges with contemporary luxury, transporting every visitor to a world of wonder and adventure… and this is exactly where the newly opened Sofitel Al Hamra Beach Resort is located.
Kristina Zanic Consultants has brought a touch of French elegance to Ras Al Khaimah by designing the exquisite interiors of the first Sofitel hotel in the Emirate of Ras Al Khaimah. The resort celebrates the rich heritage of ancient Emirati history, including pearl fishing, sailing and pottery. The hotel combines the famous French way of life with local architecture and art, inspired by the travels of nomads through the peninsula. The result is a harmonious fusion of French-inspired maritime history and Arabian essence.
The impressive lobby features a stunning mural in vibrant colors, inspired by arabesque stained glass windows, that reflects history and attracts attention. Sofitel Al Hamra Beach Resort has 292 rooms, ranging from Classic King to Luxury Double, all equipped with exclusive Dyptique amenities. The hotel has 47 suites, including the Prestige One Bedroom, Beachfront Signature Two Bedrooms and two Presidential Suites. With this, it is able to accommodate every guest perfectly. Each carefully designed room reflects a commitment to enhancing the guest experience, with details that capture the essence of the surroundings.
The generous panoramic windows provide plenty of natural light and offer breathtaking views of the picturesque landscape of Ras Al Khaimah, reminiscent of the beautiful French coast. The resort is an immersive and luxurious retreat. Great importance is attached to creating a feel-good atmosphere through French charm and a warm service culture that will be remembered for a long time.
The resort has four beachfront pools that offer magnificent views of the azure waters of the Gulf. It is a quiet oasis for relaxation and recreation. The resort is not only a paradise for those seeking relaxation, but also a culinary destination with seven exceptional restaurants that cater to every palate and promise a gastronomic journey that crosses borders. The Citron Lobby Lounge offers modern elegance and excellent service. East is an all-day dining restaurant that takes you on a culinary journey around the world in a cool setting. The Samphire Pool Bar offers delicious snacks and drinks for poolside enjoyment. The Reunion takes guests to the heart of France with authentic French cuisine. Waka Polynesian Restaurant is another unique culinary destination that celebrates Polynesia’s rich culinary heritage and serves a fusion of bold and exotic dishes. Veritas Wine Bar offers an extensive selection of premium wines from around the world, carefully curated to cater to different tastes. The Blend & Squeeze Juice Bar gives you the option to start your day with an invigorating juice or get a post-workout energy boost. Each restaurant contributes its unique charm to make Sofitel Al Hamra Beach Resort an even more enjoyable and diverse culinary destination.
