Eleve by Deyaar

38 storeys and 818 apartments from Deyaar in Downtown Jebel Ali. A three-bedroom unit spans 1,633 ft² with a maid's room; the V-shaped block gives neighbouring units on the same floor different views.

What kind of building this is

Éléve by Deyaar is a residential tower in Downtown Jebel Ali. The project passport lists 38 storeys and 818 apartments, developer Deyaar Development, stage planned.

The block is V-shaped, and the brochure works through this in detail: floor plans are grouped — ground floor, first floor, typical floors 3–17, typical floors 18–24, typical floors 25–31, and floors 32 and 33 shown separately. On the typical lower levels there are up to twenty-eight apartments per floor; higher up, fewer.

The same layout scheme reveals the views, and they differ by wing: one faces Palm Jebel Ali and Sheikh Zayed Road, another faces SZR and the Marina, a third faces the pool and the port, and some units look onto Jebel Ali Street and neighbouring development. That's normal for a V-shaped building, and it means "view" here is a property of the wing, not the floor.

What the layouts show

We have the developer's full set of layouts — forty-five pages, from the key floor plans down to individual apartment types. The top of the line-up: a three-bedroom, type 3B — 1,481 ft² internal, 152 ft² balcony, 1,633 ft² total (around 152 m²).

This layout has something not always found in Dubai's mid-market segment: a maid's room with its own bathroom, a separate laundry, a guest bathroom and a seven-metre balcony. Apartments like this are one-off in the building — per the plan they're unit 14 on floors 25, 27, 29 and 31, unit 5 on floors 26, 28 and 30, unit 5 on floor 32, and unit 11 on floor 33.

The practical takeaway: the three-bedroom units here aren't a standard type but one-off pieces, and their price can't be compared with the building's mass-market one-bedrooms — they're different products at the same address.

What to factor in about the location

Downtown Jebel Ali is a business district in the south of the city, along Sheikh Zayed Road, near the port and the free zone. Rental demand here comes from the free zone's company employees, not tourists, and it's steady year-round but with a cap on the achievable rate.

An 818-apartment building will dump a large volume onto that market all at once at handover. Manageable for a rental strategy; a factor to price into the exit for a quick resale.

Separately — the stage. The project is listed as planned, meaning the keys are far off. Check the escrow account, the quarterly payment schedule and the developer's liability for delay.
