It is the first project anywhere to carry the Dolce Residences by Wyndham name, and, according to the announcement, BNW's second partnership with Wyndham. The building has 93 homes and five shops, with handover set for the fourth quarter of 2028 in both BNW's announcement and Property Finder's listing. BNW had not added a project page to its website when we checked, so the unit details come from Property Finder. It lists one-bedroom apartments of about 750 to 950 sq ft from AED 2.4 million, two-bedroom of about 1,200 to 1,500 sq ft from AED 3.5 million, three-bedroom of about 1,800 to 2,300 sq ft from AED 5 million, and a three-bedroom penthouse of about 3,000 sq ft with the price on request. Property Finder records construction starting on 19 August 2026. The plan on Property Finder is 20% at launch, 40% during construction in four instalments, and 40% on handover. Buyers also receive a year's Wyndham Rewards Platinum membership, according to BNW. Listed facilities include an indoor pool, gym, children's play area, park and gardens. Who it suits: buyers who want a smaller, branded building on the island and are content to rely on Wyndham's name for the letting story. What to weigh: this is a very recent launch with limited published detail; the one-bedroom entry price works out at about AED 3,200 per sq ft at the smallest size, high for Ras Al Khaimah; and the developer is delivering many projects at once. Ask BNW for the brochure, floor plans and the project's escrow registration before booking. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | AED 2,400,000 | | 750 to 950 sq ft | | available | | 2-bedroom apartments | AED 3,500,000 | | 1,200 to 1,500 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | AED 5,000,000 | | 1,800 to 2,300 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom penthouses | Not published | | 3,000 sq ft | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 20/40/40 - Down payment: 20% (At sales launch) - During construction: 40% (Four instalments) - On handover: 40% (Q4 2028) Paid before handover: 60%.
