Dubai Islands

Dubai Islands, formerly known as Deira Islands, is a large-scale mixed-use development comprising five interconnected man-made islands developed by Nakheel, spanning 17 square kilometers with over 20 kilometers of pristine beachfront. Aligned with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, the development will host over 80 resorts and hotels, including luxury and wellness resorts, boutique, family-friendly, and eco-conscious hotels, along with premium golf courses overlooking the Arabian Gulf.

The five distinct islands — Central Island, Marina Island, Shore Island, Golf Island, and Elite Island — each offer unique lifestyle experiences, ranging from vibrant city energy to serene beachfront escapes. The development is accessible from the mainland via the iconic Infinity Bridge and is located within 25 minutes of Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport.

The project recorded AED 6.1 billion in sales during the first half of 2025, with waterfront communities experiencing 12–15% annual price growth by June 2025. Properties start from AED 1.25 million, with freehold ownership allowing international buyers 100% ownership, and properties over AED 750,000 qualifying for 2- or 10-year investor visas.

The islands feature luxury villas, beachfront apartments, branded residences, and duplexes with sea views, offering high rental yields and strong capital appreciation potential. Central Island alone is designed to add 20,000 new hotel rooms to Dubai’s coastline, featuring waterfront marinas accommodating 13 superyachts and 248 wet berths for vessels up to 47 meters, alongside world-class amenities including the massive Deira Mall. Together, these elements establish Dubai Islands as a premier waterfront investment destination that seamlessly combines resort-style living with urban sophistication.
