286 Nakheel residences under the Rixos hotel brand on Dubai Islands, with its own beach. A two-bedroom unit runs 157.83 m² including terraces.
Rixos Dubai Islands Hotel & Residences is a hotel-and-residences complex on Dubai Islands. The building record lists 286 units, developer Nakheel; confirmed amenities are a pool and a beach.
Rixos is a Turkish hotel brand that works in the all-inclusive and resort segments. For a residence that carries a specific economics: a working hotel operates right alongside the apartments, giving the owner access to its service and, if they want, to its rental programme too.
The floor plans show how the complex is laid out: low-rise blocks along the shore, separate beach villas nearby, and levels running from the first floor up to the tenth plus a rooftop. This is resort-style development, not a city tower.
One example from the set: a two-bedroom type A4 unit on level P2 — residence area 1,437 ft² (133.46 m²), balconies and terraces 262 ft² (24.37 m²), for a total of 1,699 ft² (157.83 m²).
The layout has two terraces — one off the bedroom, one off the living room — a walk-in closet off the master bedroom, a separate laundry room and a guest bathroom. The ratio of open to enclosed area is telling for a resort format: almost a fifth of the total footage is outdoor space.
158 square metres for a two-bedroom is toward the top of the market. This lot shouldn't be compared with a city two-bedroom: what's being paid for here is a resort lifestyle, not housing.
First, the contract with the operator. Hotel residences almost always come with a rental programme, and three points in it matter: the operator's share, the number of nights of personal stay allowed per year, and the exit procedure from the programme.
Second, the service charge. A complex with a beach, pools and hotel infrastructure is expensive to run — ask for the per-square-foot annual figure before signing.
Third, the stage the district is at. Dubai Islands is still taking shape: transport, shops and services are being completed alongside the housing. That matters less for a resort property than for a city one, but it still affects the rental rate in the early years.

The pin is placed by district — I send the exact address on request.
The final payment on this building falls in 2026 — under off-plan plans that is 40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security, and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.
Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and we will look at what the developer will accept.

Dubai Islands. The reclaimed islands off Deira, formerly Deira Islands: beaches, hotels and new residential on the northern coast.
The database currently holds 2 lots in this project, from 8 150 000 AED; 1 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 17%. Prices move every day, so it is worth asking for the current list for this building.
What has been written about the building, its developer and Dubai Islands
A 1 425 m bridge across Dubai Creek will link Dubai Islands directly to Bur Dubai: four lanes each way, 16 000 vehicles an hour, 18.5 m above the water. The AED 786m contract targets completion by the end of 2026. What the bridge changes for the islands and the old city.
CG Developers is building Dubai's first JW Marriott residence, priced from AED 1.72 million with a Q1 2028 handover. In parallel, Nakheel has awarded a AED 527 million contract for Island B's core infrastructure — roads, water and sewage for a future 49 000 homes.
The state developer behind Palm Jumeirah and the Dubai Islands. The difference between a master developer and a building developer, and why it matters for what you own.
A chain of reclaimed islands under a single government master plan. Almost no coastal land with direct beach access is left inside the emirate — and one or two new projects launch here every month. The opportunity and the risk are the same fact.
A developer building on the Dubai Islands. Between handover and the first tenant there is a list of connections and registrations, and every one of them needs someone on the ground.
A developer building on the Dubai Islands. The dirham’s peg to the dollar shapes the currency risk for every foreign buyer — and the transfer mechanics have costs of their own.
A developer building villas on the Dubai Islands. A house bought off-plan on new land combines two kinds of waiting, and they resolve on different timetables.
A developer with two projects on the Dubai Islands. Beach access is sold as a feature and defined as a legal arrangement — and the two are not always the same thing.
A mid-market company that went from a handful of projects to a large pipeline in a few years. What rapid growth does to risk, and the specific evidence that separates a good scaler from a stretched one.
I will send the available layouts, the real entry price and what owners and tenants actually say about the building — without the brochure language.
