The area
Dubai Islands is the newest coastline in the city and the least finished. Nakheel reclaimed the islands off Deira years ago under another name, let them wait, and then relaunched them as a set of beach and marina districts with a new bridge to the old city, a mall, a run of resort hotels and, from the first launches, a wave of residential towers and villas that has made the islands one of the busiest off-plan markets in Dubai. What exists today is a beach, a mall, several hotels, the first handed-over buildings and a great many cranes.
The islands sit off the coast of Deira, reached by a bridge from the old city and a second bridge across the creek's mouth, with the old airport a short drive inland. The first island holds the beach, the mall, the marina and the hotels that opened first, with the residential plots along the beachfront and the inner waterways; the further islands are planned as quieter residential and resort districts and are at an earlier stage. A promenade runs along the developed beachfront.
Apartments in beachfront and waterway towers, from studios to large layouts, and villas and townhouses in the islands' residential clusters, almost all of it sold off-plan by a wide range of developers, from the master developer to the city's luxury and volume names. The first buildings have handed over; most have not. Finish and management will vary building by building, as they do everywhere many developers build at once, and the recorded prices will show it as the resale market forms.
By car, over the bridges to Deira and the old city, with the old airport minutes away, Downtown and Business Bay a reasonable run and the Marina far. There is no Metro on the islands; the nearest stations are in Deira, a short drive. Inside the islands the roads are new and quiet. The bridges are the islands' only way off and will carry all of the traffic the plan brings; buyers should have that in mind.
The mall carries the supermarket, the cinema and the chains, the beach and the marina carry the weekends, and the hotels' restaurants carry the evenings for now. The islands' own neighbourhood retail is following the handovers. Schools sit in Deira and along the creek, a drive away, and nurseries will follow the residents. It is early, and a resident today lives among building sites with a beach at the end of them.
Investors, above all, who have made the islands one of the city's busiest off-plan markets on the strength of a new coastline near the old city. Buyers who want a beachfront home at prices below the Palm's and will wait for the district to finish around them. People who work in Deira, the old city or the old airport and want a new flat on the sea within minutes of the desk.
