Layouts and the handover date come from the developer's brochure in our archive.
Prices and payment plans from the same source are deliberately not published:
they are dated to when the brochure was issued and do not match today's prices.
I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
About the building
A residential building in Al Marjan Island, currently under construction.
Specifications for The Astera per Propsearch and the Dubai Land Department.
They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.
About the project
The Astera is a residential building in Al Marjan Island, handover is due Q4 2028.
The database currently holds 1 lot in this project, from 1 500 000 AED; 1 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 18%.
Aston Martin residences on Al Marjan in Ras Al Khaimah — with the world's first rooftop villa from a car brand: a terrace with its own pool and a 360-degree view. Five minutes from the Wynn casino under construction.
Formats
Apartments, villas and a duplex penthouse. The top lot is a rooftop villa with a private pool and a full panoramic view.
Partnerships like this mean the brand is involved in designing interiors and common areas, but not in construction. The developer is who's accountable for the building, and that's who to look at.
The name premium in branded residences typically runs from twenty to forty percent. It's justified either by genuine build quality, or by the name holding the price on resale — and the second only proves out over years.
The island and the casino
Wynn Al Marjan is the UAE's first licensed gaming resort, and the island's market is running hot on the expectation of its opening.
The upside is obvious: tourist flow at this scale lifts short-term rental. The risk is that the expectation is already in the price, and the opening date has shifted more than once — check the current stage before running a return calculation.
Launch and scale
The Astera went on sale in June 2024: 260 units in a project valued at about AED 900 million ($245 million). Entry at launch was from roughly AED 1.8 million ($490,000), with handover in Q4 2028.
Announced amenities include private beach access, a landscaped sea-view pool, a cinema and a gym.
Selling-side materials at launch: formats, specification, brand and surroundings. Unit count, project value, entry price, handover and amenities — launch announcement, June 2024.
The final payment on this building falls in 2028 — under off-plan plans that is
40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security,
and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.
Up to 80% of the appraised value, no extra down payment
3.99% fixed for three years, up to 25 years in term
6–12 months before the keys — the bank wants six months of income history
Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and
we will look at what the developer will accept.
The developer's brochure says Q4 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
How much does an apartment in The Astera cost?
The database currently holds 1 lot in this project, from 1 500 000 AED; 1 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 18%. The list changes daily — I will send a fresh selection for the building on request.
Wynn Al Marjan Island has unveiled its two largest suites, the Mayfair Apartment and the Paris Apartment, each about 1 460 sq m with seven bedrooms on the top floors of its 70-storey tower. They are hotel suites, not homes for sale. What they signal for Al Marjan property.
Ras Al Khaimah targets 3.5m visitors a year by 2030 (1.35m in 2025), wants to grow hotel stock from 8 700 to about 16 000 keys with 80% premium, and is building a terminal for 3m passengers by 2028. What it means for property buyers.
Wynn Al Marjan Island now opens in September 2027 instead of Q1, and the budget is up $600m to about $5.7bn. Licence granted by the GCGRA in October 2024, $2.4bn construction loan closed in February 2025. What the delay means for Al Marjan investors.
RAK Properties closed 2024 with revenue of AED 1.41bn (+40%) and net profit of AED 280.9m (+39%), but withheld its dividend to speed up construction ahead of the $5.1bn Wynn Al Marjan Island resort, now targeting a September 2027 opening. What it means for buyers on Al Marjan Island.
Ras Al Khaimah is building its own vertiport by Al Marjan Island, Uber and WeRide are already carrying driverless passengers in Jumeirah, and Abu Dhabi has signed on for electric Seaglider service. Status as of September 2026 on all three.
Ardee has poured foundations for its AED 2bn Fairmont Residences, while Richmind's Oystra — with a curved steel truss designed by Zaha Hadid Architects — sold out its first phase and launched a second. Here is what is actually under construction on the island next to the Wynn resort.
Ras Al Khaimah Municipality registered about AED 2.89bn ($787m) of property transactions in January–June 2026: AED 1.35bn of sales, AED 1.16bn of mortgages and AED 0.38bn of transfers without payment. CBRE puts apartment prices up 18% on the year, and 23% on Al Marjan Island.
Wynn Al Marjan opens in September 2027, and branded homes around it deliver in the same window: W Residences from AED 1m, Jacob & Co Residences (223 units, AED 300m sold in 12 hours), 141 Sheraton residences and Park Beach Residences 2. Where the risk sits.
Ras Al Khaimah is building the country’s first integrated casino resort, and Al Marjan Island is being reshaped around it. Ready-to-buy commercial units are almost nowhere to be found — and that’s its own investment story.
