Aysha Residences by Eagle Hills: Island Apartments in Sharjah's Al Khan
Eagle Hills, a UAE-based developer, built Aysha Residences on Maryam Island in Sharjah's Al Khan district. The project is a residential apartment complex on one of Sharjah's purpose-built island communities. It sits close to the water, in a district that has seen steady development over the past decade.
Maryam Island and What the Location Means
Maryam Island is in the Al Khan lagoon area of Sharjah, a short distance north of the Dubai border. The drive to Dubai Marina takes roughly 35 to 40 minutes. Business Bay and Downtown Dubai are a similar journey via Al Ittihad Road or the Emirates Road. Al Khan is one of Sharjah's more established residential districts, with Sharjah's corniche and city centre nearby.
Sharjah runs cheaper than comparable Dubai locations. That gap matters for owner-occupiers who want more space per dirham and for investors who need the numbers to work on yield.
AED 477,888 as the Listed Entry Price
The recorded price for Aysha Residences is AED 477,888, with the minimum and maximum both at the same figure. That reflects a single listed data point rather than a full price range. The actual unit mix spans from studios of around 380 sq ft to three-bedrooms reaching 1,770 sq ft, so pricing across that range would vary materially by size and floor. The AED 477,888 figure gives a reference but the price per unit type will differ.
Studios to Three-Bedrooms
All units are apartments. Studios come in at under 400 sq ft, making them the sharpest entry point for an investor focused on rental yield. One-bedrooms run 680 to 732 sq ft, a practical size for a single professional or a couple. Two-bedrooms cover roughly 1,080 to 1,140 sq ft in the main buildings, a comfortable fit for a small family. Three-bedrooms reach from 1,630 to 1,770 sq ft and target families who want meaningful space without moving into villa territory.
The range from studio to three-bedroom means the project draws different buyer profiles at each size. An investor and a family buying for long-term occupation are looking at different ends of the same building.
Amenities That Go Beyond the Standard
| Theme | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Recreation | Shared Pool, Gymnasium, Well-being and Fitness, Barbecue Area, Landscaped Parks |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Convenience | Valet Parking, Business Centre, Restaurants, Retail Facilities |
| Community | Mosque |
| Security | CCTV Security |
Valet parking and an on-site business centre are not standard in mid-range Sharjah residential projects. Their presence here points to a resident profile that values service-level touches alongside the home itself. The mosque, restaurants, and retail within the development mean daily needs are covered without leaving the complex. Taken together, the amenity set positions this as a self-contained option, not a bare-bones apartment building.
Timeline: Expected Completion Was March 2024
The original completion date for Aysha Residences was March 2024. That date has passed, and the project is likely already complete. Buyers looking at this project now are most probably entering through the secondary market or directly at handover rather than at the off-plan stage.
Getting In for 10% Down
The original off-plan payment structure was:
| Stage | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 50% |
A 10% down payment is at the low end for UAE off-plan projects. The trade-off is the 50% due at handover, which required buyers to have that capital ready at completion. For buyers now entering through the secondary market, resale terms on individual units will determine the relevant payment structure rather than this original schedule.
