About Manta Bay
Manta Bay is a waterfront development on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, with apartments offered as studios, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units. Its headline feature is a rooftop beach filled with real sand and seawater, which the developer presents as the highest of its kind in the world.
The architecture takes its cue from the stingray, with a design influenced by the Maldives. Panoramic elevators give residents views across the community. Planting covers 80% of the complex, so most of the site is landscaped.
Units are sold on easy payment plans and are pitched for strong rental income. The island location puts residents about a 5-minute drive from the casino set to become the largest in the world, which supports the case for both owner-occupiers and investors.

Questions buyers ask
What is off-plan property in Dubai?
Off-plan property is a unit purchased directly from the developer before or during construction, typically at a lower entry price and with flexible, milestone-based payment plans.
Can foreigners buy property in Dubai?
Yes. Foreign nationals can buy freehold property with 100% ownership in Dubai's designated freehold areas, with no residency requirement.
What is a payment plan and how does it work?
A payment plan splits the property price into instalments — usually a down payment on booking, staged payments during construction, and a final amount on handover.
What is the UAE Golden Visa and how can real estate qualify?
The Golden Visa is a long-term, renewable UAE residency (up to 10 years). A property investment of AED 2 million or more typically qualifies the owner to apply.
How do I get a mortgage for a Dubai property?
Both residents and non-residents can obtain mortgages from UAE banks, generally financing 50–80% of the value depending on status. Our team can connect you with mortgage advisors.
What is the expected ROI from Dubai off-plan property?
Dubai off-plan typically delivers strong returns — rental yields of around 6–8% plus notable capital appreciation by handover, varying by location and project.
