Projects in Jumeirah

From Gulf-Side Apartments to Trophy Penthouses: New Projects in Jumeirah

Jumeirah runs along Dubai's Arabian Gulf coastline, an established residential district that has held its character for decades as one of the city's most recognisable addresses. Unlike developing fringe zones or newly designated investment corridors, this is mature urban fabric with an existing community, schools, retail, and beach access already in place. Sub-areas like Jumeirah Bay Island, La Mer, Pearl Jumeirah, Jumeirah Asora Bay, and Four Seasons Private Residences each carry distinct product types, from island living to beachfront mixed-use precincts. Across the district, 22 projects are currently in the new-build pipeline, with asking prices that span a wider range than most other Dubai locations.

Where AED 18.7M Is the Midpoint

At AED 1,275,000 for entry-level units and AED 140,433,333 at the top, the range here is too wide for the average to mean much. The median is the figure worth anchoring to: AED 18,736,000. Half the units listed in Jumeirah's new pipeline sit above that number, half below. That alone signals this is a premium district, not an affordable-entry market.

The property mix explains much of the spread:

Apartments lead the count, but the penthouse share is high relative to total projects. Many developers here have oriented their buildings around upper-floor product: full-floor layouts, private pools, sea views, and a price ceiling that reflects the land values these sites command. Villa buyers in Jumeirah are generally looking for a family compound close to the coastline rather than tower living. Duplexes and townhouses are boutique options, appearing in smaller developments where a single developer is fitting several product types into one building.

Nine Developers, a Range of Track Records

9 developers hold the 22 projects currently listed. Meraas Holding is the name with the most established presence in the area, having delivered across several Jumeirah coastal precincts over multiple cycles. The rest of the list, H&H Development, Lamar Development, AHS Properties, Almal Real Estate Development, Alta Real Estate Development, Atara Real Estate Development, PMR Property, and The Melgrano Developments, are smaller operators, most with one or two projects each.

That spread puts more responsibility on the buyer. A market with many developers each holding one project means no consistent standard of delivery across the district. Meraas can be researched through its completed portfolio. For the others, verifying work delivered elsewhere in Dubai before committing is a reasonable step.

Delivery: Some Already Complete, Some Running to 2029

The earliest project in this dataset has a completion date of June 2023, which is well before mid-2026. Some listings may already be handed over or near completion. Buyers targeting those projects should verify current status directly rather than assuming standard off-plan timelines apply.

The far end of the window runs to September 2029, roughly three and a half years from now. Buyers entering the latest-stage projects should be comfortable with that hold period.

Five Percent Down, No Post-Handover Plans

The minimum down payment here is 5%, the lowest level available under Dubai's off-plan framework. For a market where the median price is above AED 18 million, that is a relatively accessible entry threshold in proportional terms. None of the 22 projects offer post-handover payment plans, which means the remaining balance falls due at completion. Buyers using mortgage finance should factor that into their planning early, particularly given that approval for this price bracket follows different criteria than standard retail lending.

Coastal Residents, Not Investor Pools

The amenity pattern across Jumeirah's new pipeline is consistent. Beach Access, Landscaped Gardens, Gymnasiums, Children's Play Areas, and Restaurants appear across multiple projects. Several developments include both a cafe and a full restaurant offer within the building, suggesting developers are building for residents who want services on-site rather than proximity to external retail. Security and CCTV features also feature prominently, reflecting the controlled-access character of most coastal and island-located buildings here. Taken together, the amenity list points toward families and long-term owner-occupiers rather than investors focused on short-term rental income or high turnover.
