From The Lagoons to Emaar's Waterfront City
The community traces its story to the original heart of the city: Dubai Creek, the trading waterway around which old Dubai grew. The site was first announced in 2006 under the name The Lagoons before being re-envisioned as the mixed-use waterfront destination you see today.
The turning point came in 2022, when Emaar acquired full ownership of the land. Since then the masterplan has accelerated with new residential clusters, Creek Beach, Creek Marina, hotels, and cultural districts, positioning Dubai Creek Harbour alongside Downtown Dubai and Dubai Hills Estate as one of Emaar's flagship master communities.

FAQ
Dubai Creek Harbour Frequently Asked Questions
It combines waterfront living, modern urban design, extensive parks, a 700-meter beach, luxury hotels, and fast access to Downtown Dubai in a single masterplan. Few Dubai communities balance natural elements and premium amenities at this scale, which is why it appeals to both families and investors.
Emaar is the master developer and acquired full ownership of the land in 2022. Dubai Creek Harbour now stands alongside Downtown Dubai and Dubai Hills Estate as one of Emaar's flagship master communities.
The community offers 1 to 3 bedroom apartments, penthouses, branded residences under the Address, Vida, and Palace names, and a limited number of townhouse-style beachfront units within Creek Beach. Most homes are modern, high-specification, and designed for both end use and investment.
The community sits about 10 minutes from Downtown Dubai and 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport, with direct road links to Business Bay, DIFC, Sheikh Zayed Road, and Dubai Healthcare City.
The masterplan is built from eight districts: Creek Island, Creek Beach, Creek Marina, the Creekside District (East and West), the Central Park District, Harbour Gate and Harbour Views, The Sanctuary along the wildlife edge, and the upcoming Urban Core commercial hub.
Community-wide averages currently run around AED 2,400 to 2,600 per square foot, approximately USD 653 to 708 per square foot. Pricing varies by district, view, floor, and launch phase.
The masterplan covers 5.5 square kilometers, about 550 hectares, with approximately 48,500 residences planned and capacity for more than 200,000 residents at full build-out. Over 6,000 to 7,000 homes have already been delivered across more than 20 completed towers.
The fundamentals are strong: sustained demand, rental returns around 6 percent on well-selected units, growing infrastructure, and a continuous pipeline of new Emaar launches. Emaar waterfront communities have historically shown strong long-term capital appreciation, though unit selection within the community remains the key driver of results.
