Dubai Creek Harbour: questions and answers

A 6 sq km waterfront master community by Emaar on Dubai Creek, next to the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary. It is mostly apartments, with ready towers on Creek Island and Creek Beach and off-plan towers handing over from 2027 to 2030.

Emaar. It began as a joint venture between Emaar and Dubai Holding; Emaar bought full ownership in 2022 in an AED 7.5bn deal.

Yes. Homes have been handed over since March 2019, and most towers on Creek Island and the Creek Beach buildings are complete and occupied.

About 15 minutes to Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa, and about 10 minutes to Dubai International Airport (DXB), according to Emaar.

Not yet. A Creek Harbour station on the Dubai Metro Blue Line, designed by SOM and described by RTA as the world's tallest metro station at 74 m, is scheduled to open in 2029.

Only the foundations exist, completed in 2017–2018. Emaar has redesigned the tower, and in June 2026 the construction tender was postponed for re-pricing, so there is no confirmed height or completion date.

Emaar started construction in December 2025 and has said it expects completion in about three years, so around 2028.

No. It is an apartment community. The closest thing is a small number of 3-bedroom townhouses built into apartment projects: 12 at The Cove 2 (handed over April 2026), a few at Palace Residences North, and more planned at off-plan Creek Waters, Valo, Arlo, Address Residences, Silva and Lyvia.

Registered sales averaged about AED 2,550 per sq ft over the 12 months to October 2026, based on DLD data. Emaar's current off-plan launches start from about AED 1.79m.

Yes, per sq ft. Apartments in Dubai Creek Harbour sold for a median of about AED 2,560 per sq ft over the 12 months to October 2026, against about AED 3,090 in Downtown Dubai, roughly 17% less, based on DLD data.

Median annual rents registered in January–September 2026 were about AED 95,000 for a 1-bedroom, AED 145,000 for a 2-bedroom and AED 210,000 for a 3-bedroom, based on DLD rent contracts.

Yes. Creek Beach is a 700 m man-made urban beach on the Creek, surrounded by low- and mid-rise residential buildings.

Seventeen, scheduled between September 2027 and August 2030 (DLD): Creek Waters and Creek Waters 2 on Creek Island; Valo, Aeon, Oria, Arlo, Altus, Address Residences and Palace Residences Creek Blue around a planned Blue Line station; Altan, Albero, Silva, Lyvia and Montiva in Green Gate; Creek Haven and Creek Bay on the sanctuary shore; and Valia beside Dubai Square.
