About Meraas

Meraas is a Dubai developer founded in 2007 and part of Dubai Holding. It is best known for lifestyle destinations that mix homes, retail and leisure, including City Walk, Bluewaters Island, La Mer and The Beach at JBR.

Its residential projects tend to be smaller, design-led enclaves near those destinations, such as Port de La Mer, Bluewaters Residences and Central Park at City Walk. Meraas is also Emaar's partner in Dubai Hills Estate. Homes are generally priced at the upper end of the market.

Questions

About Meraas

What has Meraas built in Dubai?

Meraas has built City Walk, Bluewaters Island, La Mer and The Beach at JBR, alongside residential projects such as Port de La Mer and Bluewaters Residences. It is also Emaar's partner in Dubai Hills Estate. Most of its homes sit close to these destinations.

Is Meraas part of Dubai Holding?

Yes. Meraas is part of Dubai Holding, the investment group that also owns Nakheel and Dubai Properties. Its residential projects are sold on a freehold basis to buyers of any nationality. Buyers pay the standard 4% DLD transfer fee plus registration and agency costs.

Are Meraas homes a good investment?

Meraas homes sit close to its leisure destinations, which supports rental demand, but prices are at the upper end. Compare price per square foot, service charges and rents with nearby alternatives before deciding. Resale stock is limited, which can support prices but slow a sale.
