Coastline Beach Residences: Sobha's Island Project in Umm Al Quwain
Sobha Realty is building Coastline Beach Residences on Siniyah Island, within Umm Al Quwain Marina. Construction started in December 2024, with handover targeted for September 2028. This is a fully off-plan purchase for anyone buying today.
An Island Setting in the Northern UAE
Siniyah Island sits inside Umm Al Quwain Marina, in the northernmost of the UAE's seven emirates. The drive from central Dubai runs roughly 60 minutes on a clear day. That distance is the single most important factor a buyer needs to weigh. This is not a project for someone commuting into Dubai five days a week.
The appeal is the physical setting. Siniyah Island gives direct beach access and unobstructed water views. For buyers looking at a primary residence or a second home in a coastal environment, the island location puts residents on the waterfront with beach access and water views as part of daily life, not a weekend excursion.
AED 1.21M to AED 4.95M: What the Gap Means
The price range is wide, and the spread maps directly to unit size and configuration.
At the bottom, AED 1,215,000 buys a one-bedroom apartment between 510 and 663 sq ft, with layouts offering balconies or private yards depending on the unit. These are compact units suited to an investor looking for a beach-facing entry point or a buyer wanting a manageable weekend retreat.
Two-bedroom apartments start at AED 1,843,000 and range from 775 to 987 sq ft. This bracket covers the buyer who wants a properly sized second home without moving into duplex territory.
At the top, AED 4,954,169 buys a three-bedroom duplex of approximately 2,050 sq ft, with layouts that include study rooms, maid rooms, powder rooms, and balconies or yards. These are full-sized family homes, not investment units.
Apartments and Duplexes
The project offers two property formats: apartments and duplexes.
Apartments run across one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. Many units include private yards rather than balconies. In a beachside project, ground-level outdoor space is a genuine lifestyle feature, not just an architectural detail.
Duplexes come in two- and three-bedroom formats, with split-level layouts that create a separation between living and sleeping areas. The layouts include functional extras like study rooms, maid rooms, and powder rooms. These units suit families more than investors looking for simple rental returns.
Amenities Built Around the Beach
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Water and recreation | Beach Access, Infinity Pool, View of Water |
| Wellness | Shared Spa, Gymnasium |
| Family | Children's Play Area, Landscaped Gardens |
| Practical | Retail Facilities, Security |
The amenity set is built around the beach setting. Beach access, an infinity pool, a shared spa, and water views form the core lifestyle offering. The children's play area and landscaped gardens point toward a family resident, not purely an investor audience. Retail on site reduces the need to leave the development for daily needs.
The overall mix reads as a project meant to be lived in. Residents are expected to use the amenities regularly, not just visit on move-in day.
September 2028 Handover
Construction broke ground in December 2024. The expected completion date is September 2028, roughly three and a half years from start to finish.
For a buyer entering the project now, that means approximately two and a half to three years before handover. The timeline gives a concrete planning horizon for anyone thinking about mortgage pre-approvals, lease exits, or relocating their primary residence.
Paying 60% During the Build
| Stage | Percentage |
|---|---|
| During construction | 60% |
| At handover | 40% |
Sixty percent of the purchase price is due across the construction period, with forty percent payable at handover. There is no post-handover instalment option.
The structure concentrates most of the financial commitment during the build. Buyers paying cash can model their outflows against the construction schedule. Those planning mortgage finance will need to align their borrowing with the handover date, when the forty percent balance falls due as a lump sum.
