Vida Residences +117%: what the Dubai Marina project statistics actually show
The largest developer’s return to Dubai Marina prompted a look at its earlier projects there. The valuable number in that statistic is not the growth percentage.

About the project
Marina Pinnacle is a 73-storey residential building in Dubai Marina, completed in 2011.
The developer is Tiger Properties. The architecture is by National Engineering Bureau.
The building holds 748 apartments in total.
The database currently holds 2 lots in this project, from 1 100 000 AED.
73 storeys and 748 residences in Dubai Marina, handed over in 2011. One of the taller and denser towers on the strip, at a price well below the district average.
What it is
Marina Pinnacle is a residential skyscraper in Dubai Marina by Tiger Properties, engineered by National Engineering Bureau. 73 storeys, 748 residences — roughly ten units per floor, a dense, investment-grade format.
Tiger Properties has built repeatedly across Dubai's mid-market — towers in JVC and JVT carry the same name — and its Marina Pinnacle sits at the more affordable end of what the district offers, rather than among its landmark addresses.
Our own stock: average AED 2,209/ft² (~$600/ft²) across 2,117 sq ft units — below the district average, at odds with the tower's considerable height.
Price per square foot across the Marina
Marina Pinnacle sits below several shorter, older buildings on this list, which is the point worth noticing: height on the Marina skyline does not by itself predict price, and this table is the fastest way to see that across the whole district at once.

Our own stock as of 28 August 2026, towers with three or more lots and a known area. District average — AED 2,588/ft², median lot AED 3.7 million out of 266 lots.
Height without the premium
Seventy-three storeys puts Marina Pinnacle taller than Cayan Tower, taller than most of the district's well-known names — and yet it prices below several of them. The building demonstrates cleanly that a Marina tower's price is set by developer positioning, unit mix and marketing history far more than by how many floors it has.
For a buyer comparing Dubai to skyline-driven markets like Hong Kong or Kuala Lumpur, where height itself often carries a measurable premium, this is a useful correction: in the Marina, it largely does not.
What the discount buys is genuine: a tall, well-located tower at a below-average rate. What it does not buy is the name recognition of the addresses at the top of this table — that difference is priced in, and it is priced in accurately.
