Inaura Residences by Arada Developments

Inaura Residences by Arada is the residential part of a hotel and branded residences tower in Downtown Dubai, developed by Arada and designed by the architecture studio MVRDV. The tower holds 114 residences, from one-bedroom apartments to a six-bedroom Sky Penthouse, above the Inaura Hotel, with handover scheduled for Q2 2030.

The tower stands in the heart of Downtown Dubai, between Business Bay and the Burj District. Drive times given in the developer brochure are about 5 minutes to Dubai Opera, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall and the Dubai Mall Metro station, about 8 minutes to DIFC Gate, Dubai Design District and the Museum of the Future, and about 18 minutes to Dubai International Airport.

The residences comprise 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom apartments, 5 bedroom Sky Villa duplexes and a 6 bedroom Sky Penthouse. Sizes range from about 705 to 834 sq ft (65 to 77 sq m) for a one-bedroom apartment up to about 17,770 sq ft (1,651 sq m) for the Sky Penthouse. The Arada brochure groups the one- to three-bedroom homes as the Lumen Series and the four-bedroom homes as the Radiance Series.

Prices start from AED 3.59M ≈ USD 977K for a one-bedroom apartment. Two-bedroom apartments start from AED 6.43M ≈ USD 1.75M, three-bedroom from AED 14.50M ≈ USD 3.95M, four-bedroom from AED 20.73M ≈ USD 5.64M and Sky Villa duplexes from AED 41.05M ≈ USD 11.18M, while the Sky Penthouse is priced at AED 120.00M ≈ USD 32.68M. Arada controls inventory releases, so prices can be revised as units sell and construction advances.

The plan is 10% on booking, 40% during construction spread across seven payments, and 50% on handover, which is scheduled for Q2 2030. A 4% DLD registration fee is also paid at booking; it goes to the Dubai Land Department and is not part of the payments made into the project escrow account.

Handover is scheduled for Q2 2030. The project is in its early construction stage, and each official register reading and inspection note is tracked in the Inaura Residences construction updates guide.

Yes. The tower combines the Inaura Hotel, on levels 5 to 14, with private residences from the 15th floor to the 42nd floor plus the roof. The Arada brochure states that residents will have access to a curated array of facilities, and it presents the Formative gym and the Everwell health destination as members' spaces that residents can join, so access terms and any membership fees are set out separately from the purchase price.

Every residence type is priced above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, with the lowest tier, the one-bedroom apartment, starting at AED 3.59M. Approval still depends on the applicant and the final registered purchase value, and the Inaura Residences Golden Visa guide covers the steps in detail.

Yes, Inaura Residences by Arada is a freehold property, open to all nationalities.

Yes. Reservation, SPA signing, payments and registration can all be completed remotely, and I manage the process end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of a remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.

Off plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account held with Dubai Islamic Bank and released to the developer against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The account and its mechanics are explained in the Inaura Residences escrow account guide.

Inaura Residences is developed by Arada, which its brochure describes as launched in 2017 and headquartered in the UAE, with a scope covering property development, retail, education, healthcare, fitness, wellness and hospitality. The same brochure states that Arada has launched ten communities in the UAE and expanded into the UK and Australian markets, and it names Formative, Everwell and Akala among the brands behind its lifestyle offer.
