Emaar Beachfront is Dubai’s only private-island address between Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina — 1.5 km of residents-only beach, 27 towers, and the 2026 launches now open for registration.

Emaar Beachfront occupies a private peninsula inside Dubai Harbour, the region’s largest marina. Twenty-seven towers rise between two beaches, every residence angled toward the sea — Palm Jumeirah on one horizon, the Marina skyline and Ain Dubai on the other.

Unlike any other beachfront district in the city, the sand here is reserved for residents. Below the towers, a retail promenade runs the length of the island; above it, infinity pools hang over the Gulf. Sheikh Zayed Road is one bridge away.

Pay as it rises from the sand.

Emaar’s off-plan structure spreads the price across construction, with every dirham paid into a RERA-regulated escrow account. No agency fee applies when you buy off-plan directly through a registered broker.

Dubai Harbour sits at the exact point where Sheikh Zayed Road meets the sea. The island is private, but nothing about it is remote — the city’s coastline landmarks line up minutes away.

Before you register, what buyers ask.

Where is Emaar Beachfront located?

Emaar Beachfront is a private island community in Dubai Harbour, positioned between Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina on the Sheikh Zayed Road side of the coastline. It is roughly 5 minutes from Dubai Marina, 15 minutes from Burj Al Arab, and about 25–30 minutes from both Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC).

Who is the developer of Emaar Beachfront?

Emaar Beachfront is master-developed by Emaar Properties PJSC, the developer behind Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Dubai Hills Estate. This website is operated by Obaco Homes Real Estate LLC (RERA ORN: 39478), a registered Dubai agency marketing the community — it is not the developer's official site.

What new projects are launching at Emaar Beachfront in 2026?

The headline 2026 launch is Palace by the Beach, a branded-residence project beside the private beach with 1–4 bedroom apartments and penthouses. Address Residences The Bay and Bayview by Address Resorts are also actively selling, while Beachgate by Address approaches handover in late 2026.

How much does an apartment at Emaar Beachfront cost?

As of mid-2026, 1-bedroom apartments in active launches start from around AED 2.1M–2.6M, with premium branded launches such as Palace by the Beach expected from approximately AED 3.8M. Penthouses command significantly more. Prices are set by Emaar and change with each release, so request the latest price list for current availability.

What payment plan does Emaar offer at Emaar Beachfront?

Emaar's typical structure is 10% on booking, 80% in construction-linked instalments (usually 10% each), and 10% on handover. Selected releases have offered 80/20 variants. Off-plan payments are made into RERA-regulated escrow accounts, and no agency fees apply on direct off-plan purchases.

Do all residences at Emaar Beachfront have beach access?

Yes. Every resident of the 27-tower island community has access to the 1.5 km private beach, which is exclusive to Emaar Beachfront residents and their guests — a rarity in Dubai, where most beachfront addresses share public beaches.
