The plan is built around beaches, marinas, parks and more than 80 hotels and resorts. Several hotels are already open. Proximity to Dubai International Airport, Dubai Creek and Deira is one of its biggest strengths.

Investors who want early off-plan entry into a new area
Anyone who wants to be close to the airport and old Dubai

What to watch out for

Heavy supply. 4 launches in one week, with handovers stacked between 2026 and 2028. Think about how many units will hit the rental market at once.
Mostly off-plan. Check the escrow account and the handover payment before signing.
Infrastructure is not finished. Some retail and community facilities are not finished yet, and getting around requires a car for now.
