Marea Residences is an exclusive boutique beachfront development on Dubai Islands, crafted by Sharafi Development, a heritage Emirati real estate group established in 1924. Designed as a sanctuary of refined coastal living, the building features only 68 homes, offering residents a high-quality and low-density lifestyle surrounded by ocean views, landscaped spaces, wellness amenities and uninterrupted serenity. With prices starting from AED 2.6M and a long post-handover payment plan, Marea presents a rare opportunity to secure luxury waterfront real estate in one of Dubai’s most promising island districts.
The architecture of Marea Residences draws inspiration from the movement of the waves, featuring sculpted façades, panoramic curved balconies, and tiered outdoor green terraces that visually merge the building with its natural shoreline setting. Each apartment and penthouse has been thoughtfully planned with premium European finishes, natural materials, elevated ceiling heights, and wide windows that maximize sunlight and bring the calming energy of the sea indoors. Select layouts feature private outdoor jacuzzis, while the penthouses offer rooftop pools with unobstructed skyline and ocean views — making them among the most desirable residences on Dubai Islands.
Inside, residents experience a wellness-forward lifestyle supported by hospitality-inspired facilities that include an infinity pool overlooking the water, panoramic gym, spa suites, sauna, steam rooms, sensory shower, residents’ lounge, and rooftop relaxation areas. Marea owners also benefit from access to amenities within the adjacent Sharafi hotel, adding a resort-style convenience and strengthening the development’s long-term rental and resale appeal. Concierge service, secure parking, landscaped podium gardens, and private cabanas complete the sense of boutique exclusivity.
Marea Residences stands in a prime coastal position within Dubai Islands — a master community developed under the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan. The district is growing into a modern leisure destination with new retail promenades, recreational beaches, cultural venues, hospitality zones and a major new shopping mall. Residents enjoy effortless connectivity to Deira, Dubai International Airport, Downtown Dubai and the wider city through a network of upgraded roads and bridges. As tourism, retail and entertainment components continue to open, waterfront properties in Dubai Islands are expected to attract strong long-term demand.
From an investment perspective, Marea Residences benefits from limited supply, a luxury beachfront placement, and early pricing within a rapidly growing district. The project’s 40/30/30 payment schedule — with two years post-handover — makes acquisition financially smooth for both end-users and global investors. Buyers investing AED 2M or more may also qualify for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, enhancing lifestyle and residency value. With Sharafi Development’s integrated construction model and long-standing reputation, Marea offers confidence in build quality, delivery, and durability.
