The Vida brand in a suburb
Dubai Hills Estate in our database: 108 lots, median AED 3.62 million, average AED 2,617 per square foot.
Vida is the lightest of Emaar's hospitality brands, positioned below Address and Palace. In central districts, its premium is noticeable; here, Club Point trades at AED 2,552/ft² — cheaper than the non-branded Lime Gardens at AED 2,874/ft².
In other words, the Vida brand carries no premium at all in this district. The scale we've compiled across the city confirms the pattern: buyers pay for a brand where they're buying status and service, and don't pay for it where they're buying a park and schools.
So the question worth asking isn't about the brand — it's about the service charge: hotel-style management costs money regardless of whether the market pays a price premium for it.
Launch
Vida Residences in Dubai Hills Estate went on sale in March 2024, with prices starting at about AED 1.6 million (around $436,000) and handover scheduled for Q3 2028.
Propsearch factsheet: 24 storeys, 216 residences, developer Emaar Properties, status under construction. Our own stock as of 28 August 2026: one project lot (price), data on Vida Residence and Vida Residences Club Point, district median and average for Dubai Hills Estate. Launch date, entry price and handover date — launch announcement, March 2024.
The final payment on this building falls in 2029 — 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.
Up to 80% of the appraised value, no extra down payment
3.99% fixed for three years, up to 25 years in term
6–12 months before the keys — the bank wants six months of income history
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.
Emaar Properties. The architecture is by Archcorp Architectural Engineering.
How many floors does Vida Residences have?
24. The building has 216 apartments.
When is Vida Residences handed over?
Vida Residences is still being built. The handover date of a given unit I verify against its contract before the deal.
Where is Vida Residences?
Dubai Hills Estate. Emaar’s flagship family masterplan: a golf course, a park, a mall and schools, eleven minutes from Downtown.
How much does an apartment in Vida Residences cost?
The database currently holds 6 lots in this project, from 1 480 000 AED; 6 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 14%. Prices move every day, so it is worth asking for the current list for this building.
Emirates Golf Club, Montgomerie, Dubai Creek, The Els Club, Dubai Hills, Arabian Ranches and Jumeirah Golf Estates: when each opened, who designed it and which communities surround it. A buyer's guide for people choosing the home, not the membership.
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.
Where this project stands today
I will send the available layouts, the real entry price and what owners and tenants actually say about the building — without the brochure language.
