Jacob & Co Residences Arrive on Al Marjan Island

If there’s one destination slowly and surely defining the luxury living landscape in the UAE, it’s Al Marjan Island. Once a well-kept secret among discerning travellers and high-net-worth insiders, this manmade archipelago in Ras Al Khaimah is emerging as the next frontier for branded residences and ultra-luxury developments. And now, with the arrival of Jacob & Co Residences - in partnership with India’s design-led developer Mantra Properties, that future just became a whole lot more dazzling.

Blending haute horology with high-end design, the AED 400 million development marks Jacob & Co’s debut on Al Marjan Island and Mantra Properties’ entry into the Middle East. This is Jacob & Co’s third UAE residential development, following high-profile launches in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, but its first on Al Marjan Island. Known for their groundbreaking Astronomia watches and stunning high jewellery, Jacob & Co’s aesthetic codes will now extend into bespoke living spaces. Jacob & Co enters the world of real estate by crafting a residence as visionary as its timepieces. From panoramic waterfront views to curated interiors that echo the artistry of a handcrafted timepiece, this is poised to be the new most coveted lifestyle that mirrors the precision of Swiss movements and also the poetry of rare gems.

“As Ras Al Khaimah positions itself as a new magnet for luxury tourism and investment, developments like these are architectural feats as much as they’re cultural markers,” says Arch. Abdulla Al Abdouli, CEO of Marjan. “The Jacob & Co Residences will add another distinguished chapter to Al Marjan Island’s evolving narrative.”

For Mantra, a name synonymous with architectural innovation in India, this project is a bold step into a new region. With a legacy spanning over 18 projects across India, Mantra Properties brings a design philosophy that prioritizes both elegance and emotional resonance. “For us, it’s about crafting experiences that endure,” shares Ankit Gupta, Executive Director. “Partnering with a visionary brand like Jacob & Co allows us to elevate that mission on a global stage.”

For smart investors and design aficionados alike, this is a call to watch the coastline, because when luxury brands lend their names to real estate, they’re creating a legend.
