RAK Properties PJSC, Ras Al Khaimah’s leading property developer, awards Gulf Asia as the main contractor in the development of the second phase of its flagship community Bay Residences. The announcement comes following the completion of piling works.
Located on the prestigious Hayat Island, the beachfront development will include 324 apartments, ranging from studios to three-bedroom units, across two towers. The second phase of the community sold out, highlighting a surge in demand for beachfront properties in the emirate.
