Bluewaters Bay at Bluewaters Island by Meraas

Bluewaters Bay is a residential development by Meraas made up of two residential towers in the bay between Bluewaters Island and The Beach at JBR in Dubai. It comprises 678 residential units across 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom apartments and 5 bedroom penthouses, with handover scheduled for Q1 2027.

Bluewaters Bay is located in the bay between Bluewaters Island and The Beach at JBR, and a promenade gives residents direct access to both destinations. The main road access comes from Bluewaters Bridge, which links to Sheikh Zayed Road, and a second street-level access point provides a route to Dubai Marina without using Sheikh Zayed Road.

Bluewaters Bay offers 1 bedroom apartments of approximately 798 to 1,264 sq ft (74 to 117 sq m), 2 bedroom apartments of 984 to 1,952 sq ft (91 to 181 sq m), 3 bedroom apartments of 2,015 to 2,891 sq ft (187 to 269 sq m), 4 bedroom apartments of 2,891 to 2,994 sq ft (269 to 278 sq m) and 5 bedroom penthouses of 6,878 to 6,929 sq ft (639 to 644 sq m). The floor plan set includes several one-bedroom layout types, and some two-bedroom layouts open onto garden or promenade terraces.

Prices start from AED 2.85M ≈ USD 776K for a 1 bedroom apartment. 2 bedroom apartments start from AED 4.15M ≈ USD 1.13M, 3 bedroom apartments from AED 6.98M ≈ USD 1.90M, 4 bedroom apartments from AED 17.00M ≈ USD 4.63M, and the 5 bedroom penthouse from AED 65.00M ≈ USD 17.70M. The final price of a unit depends on its size, floor and view, and the developer can revise pricing between releases.

Bluewaters Bay follows an 80/20 payment plan: 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 60% during construction according to the schedule set in the SPA, and the final 20% on completion, with handover scheduled for Q1 2027. The 4% DLD registration fee is paid to the Dubai Land Department and is separate from the purchase price.

Handover of Bluewaters Bay is scheduled for Q1 2027. The project is under construction, and each DLD register reading and RERA inspection note is tracked in the Bluewaters Bay construction updates guide.

Bluewaters Bay offers an infinity pool with views towards Bluewaters Island and Ain Dubai, a tennis court, a fitness centre, community gardens and a kids play area, a double-height entrance lobby, and a ground-level promenade that connects to a linear park and gives direct access to Bluewaters Island and The Beach at JBR.

Every unit tier at Bluewaters Bay is priced above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold for the 10 year UAE Golden Visa, starting from AED 2.85M ≈ USD 776K. Eligibility is assessed on the registered property value, so the price on the Oqood or title deed itself must be at least AED 2M, and approval rests with the UAE authorities. The Bluewaters Bay Golden Visa guide covers the steps in detail.

Yes. The full process, from reservation and SPA signing to payment and DLD registration, can be completed remotely, and I manage it end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of the remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.

Off plan payments for Bluewaters Bay are made to the project's DLD-registered escrow account held with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB) and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The full mechanism is explained in the Bluewaters Bay escrow account guide.

The 5 bedroom penthouse is the top tier at Bluewaters Bay, priced from AED 65.00M ≈ USD 17.70M with sizes of approximately 6,878 to 6,929 sq ft (639 to 644 sq m). It is the largest residence type in the project, and its layout is included in the official floor plan set.
