  • Star-studded exclusive evening hosted at Ain Dubai
  • New phase to reveal limited edition penthouses and duplexes expected to be priced at around AED 75M and above
  • Europe, US, China among top markets for buyers

DUBAI, UAE: Richmind, a premium developer specialising in ultra-luxury real estate projects and a flagship business vertical of Richmind Holding has announced the complete sell-out of Phase 1 of its flagship development, Oystra, located on Al Marjan Island. Following an unprecedented response from buyers and investors, the developer has launched Phase 2, which is now open for sale.

Designed by the visionary Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA), marking the firm’s first residential development on Al Marjan Island, Oystra by Richmind has witnessed exceptional demand from overseas markets. Data from Phase 1 reveals that over 50% of buyers hail from Europe, underscoring the project’s appeal to sophisticated global investors. Significant interest was also recorded from key markets including the USA, Canada, China, Australia and Turkey. As part of Phase 2, Richmind also teased the upcoming release of limited edition ultra-luxury penthouses. Expected to list for around AED 75 Million, these exclusive residences will set a new benchmark for pricing and exclusivity on Al Marjan Island.

To celebrate this milestone, Richmind hosted a spectacular Phase 2 launch event on January 27th at Ain Dubai. The evening was headlined by world-renowned DJ Shimza, who curated an immersive sonic experience for a select guest list of investors, dignitaries, and industry elites, mirroring the avant-garde spirit of the Oystra development.

Mohammad Rafiee, CEO of Richmind, commented, “The sell-out of Phase 1 is a resounding validation of our vision to bring art into living. Oystra has resonated deeply with the international community, particularly those in Europe who value the fusion of iconic Zaha Hadid architecture with functional luxury – at an evergrowing lifestyle destination like Al Marjan Island. Our Phase 2 launch will see even more exclusivity, premium offerings and limited edition homes, setting this new standard of UAE living to the world. The interest from global investors to buy property in the UAE is a trend we will continue to cater to. Our recent expansion into China with a sales office in Shanghai and our collaboration with Harrods in London in February are strategic steps to be closer to our global clientele.”

Responding to this global appetite, Richmind has expanded its presence in key global markets, with the recent opening of a sales office in Shanghai, to serve Far Eastern investors. Furthermore, Richmind is bringing Oystra directly to European investors through a series of high-profile roadshows scheduled for February, including stops in Manchester, Hamburg, and an exclusive showcase at Harrods in London.

The stunning development offers residents access to over 50 world-class amenities, including a 150-metre crystal-clear lagoon, a branded Luxe European spa, dedicated yoga pavilions, and a state-of-the-art golf simulator, collectively designed to elevate the living experience. Richmind will also be announcing a collaboration with a luxury hospitality brand this year, bringing curated serviced residences and exclusive high-end F&B offerings to the community.

The crown jewel of the development’s leisure offerings is Ras Al Khaimah’s first and only 360° infinity pool, offering some of the most dramatic views on Al Marjan Island. This is complemented by a world-renowned Beach Club and a dedicated 24-hour, 5-star concierge service, ensuring a hotel-standard lifestyle for all residents.

Christos Passas, Director of Design at Zaha Hadid Architects, added, “With Phase 2, we continue the narrative of fluid elegance. The architecture of Oystra is designed to engage with the elements,the sea, the wind, and the light. We are thrilled to see how well the design has been received globally. It confirms that there is a universal language for beauty and innovation, and we look forward to seeing this second phase come to life, offering residents a spatial experience that is both grounding and limitless.”

During the launch event, Richmind also took the opportunity to recognize its top-performing partners, presenting awards to key brokers who played a pivotal role in the success of Phase 1.

As construction progresses toward the 2029 handover, Oystra continues to embody Richmind’s vision for design-led, artful living that enhances the UAE’s coastal landscape while delivering lasting value for residents and investors. Operating across the UK, Germany, China, and the UAE, Richmind Holding is well positioned for continued international growth in the year ahead.

RICHMIND BREAKS GROUND ON OYSTRA AT AL MARJAN ISLAND, RAS AL KHAIMAH

Richmind has begun construction on Oystra, with Phase 1 already fully sold out as the project reaches a major development milestone.

Dubai, UAE: 10.12.25 – Richmind, a premium developer specialising in ultra-niche real estate projects and a flagship business vertical of Richmind Holding, has officially broken ground on Oystra, a landmark residential project on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah. Designed by Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA), Oystra represents a defining moment in the emirate’s emergence as the UAE’s next world-class coastal investment destination and sets an unprecedented benchmark for luxury waterfront living.

With Phase 1 fully sold out, the groundbreaking marks a significant milestone and signals the formal launch of Phase 2, now officially on sale. The sellout of Phase 1, driven by strong global and regional demand, underscores growing investor confidence in high-growth beachfront markets like Ras Al Khaimah and affirms Oystra’s position as one of the most sought-after developments on Al Marjan Island. Construction remains firmly on track for the 2029 handover.

Oystra brings together an exceptional, world-renowned team of partners to deliver a project conceived as a legacy development from day one. Zaha Hadid Architects leads the visionary design, introducing a sculptural, fluid architectural form never before seen on Al Marjan Island, while Dewan Architects + Engineers translates this ambition into technical reality through innovations such as the 40-metre curved steel truss that preserves ZHA’s purity of form. HBA delivers hospitality-grade interiors, and Cracknell creates a landscape that becomes an experiential extension of the architecture, deeply connected to the seafront environment. Together, these partners ensure Oystra is executed not as a conventional development, but as a landmark that will define the future of waterfront living in the emirate.

Al Marjan Island has always been envisioned as a premier waterfront destination, and the groundbreaking of Oystra marks an exciting milestone in the island’s continued growth. Richmind’s commitment to design excellence and world-class partnerships, reinforces the international appeal of Ras Al Khaimah and elevates the lifestyle offering for residents and investors alike,” says Arch.
