Crafted by world-leading architects and situated on prime beachfront locations along the fronds of Palm Jebel Ali, these five- and six-bedroom villas, ranging from 7,300 sq ft to 8,500 sq ft, offer privacy and exclusivity.

The Beach Collection showcases 10 distinct villa styles, including eight brand new designs, each offering a distinct expression of beachfront living. Each villa boasts a unique and contemporary façade designed to complement the coastal setting. The first residences are anticipated for completion by the end of 2027.
