Photos and renders of the building and grounds — not of this particular unit.
Layouts and the handover date come from the sales-launch announcement; the date of that announcement is shown next to the prices. It is what the developer claimed at launch, not a registry record — off-plan, phasing and dates get revised. I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
A residential building in Palm Jumeirah, currently under construction. Developer — Omniyat.
Specifications for The Alba Resort Residences as published by the developer — the project is under construction, so there is no Land Department record yet. They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.
The Alba Resort Residences is a residential building in Palm Jumeirah, handover is due Q3 2028.
The developer is Omniyat.
The building holds 63 apartments in total. Layouts, according to the sales-launch announcement — 2 and 3 bedrooms.
There is not a single lot in this project in the database right now — it is refreshed every night, and listings here appear and go.
Sixty-three fully furnished Omniyat residences on Palm Jumeirah, managed by Dorchester Collection, interiors by YODEZEEN: handover stated for Q3 2028.
The Alba Resort Residences is the first fully furnished apartment offering in a Dorchester Collection beachfront retreat on Palm Jumeirah. Sixty-three residences in total, two and three bedrooms, sizes 170–256 m² (1,800–2,850 sq ft).
Interiors are by YODEZEEN. Furnishing is included in the delivery — for a branded residence that matters: you're buying a finished product, not a shell in need of fit-out.
Launch prices from April 2025: two-bedroom units from AED 20 million, three-bedroom from AED 32 million. Payment plan 50/50, completion Q3 2028.
AED 20 million for 170 square metres works out to about AED 117,000/m² — a level where price is set not by floor area but by brand, view and the managing operator.
The one question that matters for a purchase like this: exactly what Dorchester Collection delivers under the contract. Service, access to the hotel's amenities, the terms of letting through the operator — these are all separate contract items, and they determine how the residence differs from an expensive apartment next door.
Number of residences, unit mix, sizes, prices, payment plan and timeline — developer Omniyat's materials, April 2025.
The pin is placed by district — I send the exact address on request.
Lots for this project come and go, and the stock is topped up nightly. Message me — I will look through the closed bases and find the closest alternatives in Palm Jumeirah.
Ask about this projectThe final payment on this building falls in 2028 — 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.

The sales-launch announcement says Q3 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
2-bedroom and 3-bedroom, according to the sales-launch announcement. Which sizes are actually free right now depends on what is on the market; I will send the current list.
Palm Jumeirah. The palm-shaped island: villas on the fronds, apartments along the trunk, resorts around the crescent.
There are no open listings for this building in the database right now. I will check the price for a particular layout against the closed databases and send it with the deal costs worked out.
What has been written about the building, its developer and Palm Jumeirah
ELA Residences is Omniyat’s ultra-prime scheme on the Palm Jumeirah crescent: Zaha Hadid Architects design, Dorchester Collection service, three- and four-bedroom homes and duplexes. Launched June 2024, under construction since May 2024, entry around AED 43m, handover still Q1 2028.
Business Bay recorded 14 prime transactions in August 2026 against Palm Jumeirah's 10 — while Dubai-wide transaction volume fell 37% year-on-year and value fell 44%. Rental search demand rose 44% over the same period. What these seemingly contradictory numbers actually mean.
Knight Frank counted 219 Dubai home sales above $10m in 2022, 434 in 2023 and a record 435 in 2024 (about $7bn). In the first half of 2023 Dubai overtook New York, Hong Kong and London. How a shortage of supply made Palm Jumeirah the core of the market — the background to 2025–2026.
PASSO on Palm Jumeirah, Arancia Yards in City of Arabia and Soulever in Dubai Maritime City are all built by the same developer, BEYOND, yet each draws a different kind of investor. Why one brand does not mean one buyer profile.
On sales registered with the Dubai Land Department in the year to July 2026, Jumeirah 2 leads at about AED 7 560 per sq ft, followed by Trade Center 2, DIFC, Dubai Harbour and La Mer. The city median is about AED 1 716. How prices compare with rents, and when a costly square foot pays off.
Knight Frank counted 500 Dubai home sales above US$10m in 2025, worth US$9.05bn, against 30 in 2020. The first half of 2026 added 296 more worth US$5.1bn, a half-year record. Where the money went and why the top of the market held up.
Altrata's Billionaire Census 2026 counts 43 billionaires living in Dubai, joint eighth among world cities with Shenzhen. The UAE has 59 with a combined $201bn. How that shows up in Dubai's AED 100m-plus villa market, and what it does not change for everyone else.
Dubai in 2024: 226 000 transactions worth AED 761bn (+36% and +20%) and 110 000 first-time investors, per the DLD. ValuStrat had prices up 27.5% — villas +31.6%, apartments +23.6%, Jumeirah Islands and Palm Jumeirah villas above 42%. Figures, leading districts and the September 2026 status.
By mid-2026, new-build homes above 1 million rubles per square metre are selling in 14 Moscow districts — four more than a year earlier. In Dubai that same price level remains the preserve of just four addresses: Jumeirah Bay Island, Palm Jumeirah, Emirates Hills and Downtown Dubai.
I will tell you which layouts are available now, what entry really costs and what the people who live in or let the building think of it — no marketing language.
