Dominant Type
Launched in early 2018 Emaar Beachfront has quickly grown to be Dubai’s hottest and most in-demand new community. A 10 million sq. ft. development located within Dubai Harbour it holds one of, if not the very best locations found anywhere in Dubai.
Once complete this grand development will feature a total of 27 high-end, luxury waterfront residential apartment projects as well as a hotel to be developed by Emaar and operated by Address Hotels + Resorts. Offering a unique blend of island living and an urban lifestyle, Emaar Beachfront will offer residents and visitors a new level of leisure and lifestyle experiences unique to Emaar Beachfront and Dubai Harbor.
All projects within Emaar Beachfront will feature unprecedented Sea or Dubai Marina skyline views. Residents will enjoy access to the private 1.5-kilometer white sand beach along with a host of first-class facilities and amenities.
Access to the island will include direct links to SZR ensuring uninterrupted, congestion-free entry and exit.
Location and Connectivity
Emaar Beachfront sits on the Dubai Harbour waterfront, a short drive from Dubai Marina, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Media City and Dubai Internet City, with Sheikh Zayed Road reachable for onward travel to Downtown Dubai and DIFC. Public bus services run in the area, and the nearest Metro stations are in the Marina and Media City area, so most residents drive or use taxis and ride-hailing. A planned access bridge to Dubai Harbour was reported by the RTA as about 90% complete in June 2026, though that does not confirm an opening date.
Rental Yields
Gross yields are generally around 5% to 7%, and different sources land at different points in that range:
- Broker and aggregator estimates: roughly 5% to 6%.
- Transaction-based estimates: about 7%.
- 1-bedroom asking-price benchmark: about 4.6%.
Annual rents are typically about AED 137,000 to 168,000 for a 1-bedroom and AED 270,000 or more for a 2-bedroom. Short-term rentals benefit from the beach and views but carry higher costs and seasonality. Net yields are usually 1.5 to 2.5 percentage points lower after service charges and other costs.
Schools and Nurseries
- Inside the community: there are no schools or nurseries on the island itself.
- Nurseries nearby: Jumeirah International Nurseries, Redwood Montessori Nursery and Blossom Palm Jumeirah Nursery are within roughly a 15-minute drive.
- Schools nearby: iCademy Middle East, Gyanberry Dubai and The International School of Choueifat are around 12 to 15 minutes away by car, and Dubai College is in the surrounding area.
- Before buying: check curriculum, availability, bus routes and KHDA ratings, as places and catchments change.
Healthcare
- Inside the community: there are no hospitals on the island, and healthcare facilities are limited within Dubai Harbour for now.
- Clinics nearby: Marina Medical Center, Emirates Hospital Clinic (Marina) and other Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah clinics are about 5 to 10 minutes away.
- Hospitals nearby: Al Zahra Hospital, Saudi German Hospital and Mediclinic Meadows are reported at around 13 to 20 minutes by car.
- Emergency care: confirm the nearest A&E and your insurer's network before moving in.
Lifestyle and Amenities
- Beach and marina: private beach access, a promenade and marina frontage on the doorstep.
- In-building facilities: most towers include infinity or rooftop pools, gyms, children's play areas, BBQ areas, concierge, covered parking and 24-hour security.
- Dining and retail: the wider Dubai Harbour and nearby Dubai Marina, JBR and Palm Jumeirah offer a large choice of restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and malls, and local walkable amenities are still limited compared with Dubai Marina.
- Attractions nearby: Dubai Marina, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Skydive Dubai and the Dubai Harbour marina and cruise terminal.
- Community feel: quiet, gated and resort-style, with fewer shops and services on the island itself than in the Marina.
