On a stretch of golden sand where the Arabian Gulf kisses the shores of Ras Al Khaimah, Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island rises like a promise of romance, celebration, and unfiltered luxury. Just 45 minutes from Dubai International Airport, this five-star beachfront escape is more than a hotel. It’s a destination where vows feel sweeter, honeymoons linger longer, and every occasion is dressed in its most photogenic light.
A Wedding Venue That Feels Like a Fairytale
Every couple dreams of a wedding that feels personal yet cinematic — Mövenpick turns that dream into a tangible, stunning reality. Imagine exchanging vows on Ula Beach, where the sea glistens under the fading sun and the air hums with the sound of gentle waves. The venue can host everything from an intimate barefoot ceremony to a grand gala reception under the stars, complete with live music, fire shows, or even fireworks.
For couples drawn to lush greenery over sandy toes, the Garden Venue offers a serene open-air backdrop, perfect for twilight receptions with 300 guests for banquets or up to 450 for cocktails. And for those seeking complete seclusion? The Exclusive Island promises a wedding so private it feels like it exists in its own universe.
Indoors, the Jais Ballroom is a pillar-less vision of sophistication, with high ceilings, warm lighting, and the flexibility to host up to 300 guests in banquet style. With its own private entrance and a spacious pre-function foyer bathed in natural daylight, it’s an elegant choice for receptions, dinners, or after-parties that transition seamlessly from speeches to dancing.
Honeymoon Bliss, Mövenpick Style
After the celebrations fade into memories, the honeymoon begins — and Mövenpick knows how to romance its guests. Suites and villas open onto endless sea views, inviting morning coffees on private balconies and long, lazy afternoons in bed. Couples can indulge in signature Mövenpick experiences — from curated spa rituals for two to sunset catamaran sails and private dining on the sand.
Adventure-seekers aren’t left out either. The resort can arrange everything from water sports and ziplining to desert safaris, giving newlyweds the thrill of shared experiences. And when it’s time to slow down, there’s always the beach — your own stretch of golden serenity.
Celebrations Beyond ‘I Do’
While weddings are a highlight, Mövenpick is also the perfect host for milestone birthdays, anniversaries, corporate retreats, or simply a glamorous weekend escape. Smaller venues like the Sall and Yanas Meeting Rooms provide stylish, intimate spaces for gatherings of up to 60 guests, enhanced with modern tech, personal service, and gourmet coffee breaks that go beyond the ordinary (think healthy juices, themed pastries, and even a billiards table for those less formal moments).
The beauty of Mövenpick lies in its versatility — a beachfront concert, a poolside cocktail party, a cultural gala with Tanoura dancers and live oud music, or a high-energy DJ night capped with fireworks. Here, events are not just planned; they’re designed to be remembered.
Fabien Chesnais, General Manager, Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island says,
“Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island is designed to make every celebration effortless and unforgettable. With 418 rooms and suites, a 300-metre white-sand beachfront and a flexible, naturally-lit 530 sq.m ballroom with a large pre-function area and terrace, we can host intimate gatherings and grand multi-day Indian weddings with equal ease. Our culinary and events teams—supported by specialist Indian chefs and bespoke menu options—work closely with families and planners to personalise ceremonies, whether that means a beachfront vow at sunset, a traditional banquet in the ballroom. We also offer partial to a full resort buyout to large weddings that works well for privacy. With family rooms, group-friendly packages and a dedicated wedding concierge handling logistics from menus to AV rehearsals and guest arrivals, Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island offers Indian couples and families a warm, authentic and stress-free destination wedding experience that blends spectacular settings with thoughtful cultural touches.”
Why Mövenpick Al Marjan Island Feels Different
It’s not just the postcard-worthy setting — though the resort has that in abundance. It’s the seamless blend of Swiss precision and Arabian warmth. Every touchpoint, from the private entrances to event spaces to the intuitive, anticipatory service, feels deliberate. It’s luxury without pretense, where guests are treated like cherished friends rather than itineraries to be managed.
The Perfect Ending to Every Story
Whether it’s a barefoot beach wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, or an anniversary celebrated under a canopy of fireworks, Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island transforms moments into milestones. Here, celebrations aren’t just hosted — they’re elevated, wrapped in a landscape of sea and sky, and infused with a hospitality that lingers long after you leave.
Because on this corner of Al Marjan Island, love isn’t just in the air — it’s in every carefully curated detail.
