Resorts across the emirate are reporting growing demand for all-inclusive and family-oriented packages, as travellers look for convenient short-haul getaways during the Eid holiday period.
Hotels across Ras Al Khaimah are reporting strong occupancy ahead of Eid Al Adha, driven by increased demand from UAE residents choosing short-haul staycations within driving distance, as travellers prioritise convenience, value, and experience-led breaks.
Phillipa Harrison, Chief Executive Officer of the Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA), said the Eid period is witnessing higher demand for bundled resort packages that include accommodation, dining, and leisure activities, particularly among families seeking hassle-free holiday planning.
“This Eid Al Adha, we are seeing strong demand from UAE residents looking for getaways within easy driving distance that offer both convenience and value,” Harrison said.
She added that all-inclusive and package-based offerings are performing strongly, reflecting a broader shift in traveller behaviour toward curated, pre-arranged resort experiences rather than standalone hotel stays.
“Even luxury hotel guests are increasingly looking for packages that include wellness, dining, and curated resort activities,” she said.
Hotels across the emirate have launched a range of Eid packages in response to rising demand.
At SO/ Ras Al Khaimah, an ultra-all-inclusive Eid stay package is priced from around Dh1,200 per room per night for two adults, including dining across multiple venues, beachfront access, and curated wellness and creative activities.
At Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island, Eid family stays start from approximately Dh1,300 per room per night for two adults, with complimentary stays for children and access to leisure facilities such as pools, kids’ clubs, and water-based activities.
Rixos Bab Al Bahr is offering an all-inclusive Eid stay from about Dh2,040 per room per night, featuring unlimited dining, entertainment programming, and family-focused activities.
Industry operators say these packages are contributing to higher occupancy across both luxury and mid-range properties, as families increasingly prefer integrated resort experiences over fragmented travel planning.
Harrison said Ras Al Khaimah continues to position itself as a nature-led destination focused on space, outdoor experiences, and a slower pace, making it especially attractive during peak holiday periods when residents seek restorative breaks close to home.
She added that curated resort programming remains a key demand driver, with hotels across the emirate aligning Eid offerings around wellness, entertainment, and family-oriented experiences.
