Palace Villas Ostra by Emaar Properties

Palace Villas Ostra is a branded villa community by Emaar within The Oasis in Dubai, comprising 526 stand-alone villas in 4, 5 and 6 bedroom configurations. The collection carries Emaar's Palace hospitality brand and is arranged around a swimmable lagoon, urban canals and landscaped parkland.

The community sits inside The Oasis by Emaar, off Yalayis Street in Dubai. Al Maktoum International Airport is around 18 minutes away by car, Dubai Hills Estate around 20 minutes, and Downtown Dubai around 35 minutes. There is no metro line serving the community, so access is by road.

Three villa types are released: 4 bedroom villas of approximately 7,287 sq ft (677 sq m), 5 bedroom villas of approximately 9,523 sq ft (885 sq m), and 6 bedroom villas of approximately 12,859 sq ft (1,195 sq m). Villas are offered in Classic, Contemporary and Chamfer architectural styles, with basement and drop-type layouts available on selected plots.

Handover is scheduled for Q3 2029, and the final payment instalment falls due in September 2029. The project is currently under construction, and progress against RERA inspection data is tracked in the Palace Villas Ostra construction updates guide.

Prices start from AED 13.13M ≈ USD 3.58M for a 4 bedroom villa. The 5 bedroom villas start from AED 14.56M ≈ USD 3.96M and the 6 bedroom villas from AED 24.05M ≈ USD 6.55M, with the final figure depending on plot position, orientation and architectural style.

Emaar offers a construction-linked 80/20 payment plan: 10 percent plus the 4 percent DLD registration fee on booking, 70 percent in instalments across the construction period, and the remaining 20 percent on completion in September 2029. Instalments are tied to development milestones, so the exact schedule applied to a villa depends on the build stage at the time of booking.

Yes. Every villa type is priced well above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold for the 10 year UAE Golden Visa. The Palace Villas Ostra Golden Visa guide sets out the eligibility criteria and the application sequence in detail.

Yes. Palace Villas Ostra is a freehold development, open to buyers of all nationalities, with full ownership of both the villa and its plot registered in the buyer's name at the Dubai Land Department.

Yes. Reservation, sales and purchase agreement signing, payment and Oqood registration can all be completed remotely without travelling to Dubai, and I manage the process end to end with the developer on the buyer's behalf. Each stage of a remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.

All off plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account rather than directly to the developer, and funds are released against verified construction progress. The framework is regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The mechanics for this specific project are explained in the Palace Villas Ostra escrow account guide.

It suits investors with a long horizon rather than a short one. Handover is scheduled for 2029, so returns depend on capital appreciation through the build years and on the infrastructure being delivered around Al Maktoum International Airport. The supporting factors are capped villa supply inside The Oasis masterplan, branded positioning that only two enclaves in the community carry, and a payment structure that keeps 80 percent of the price spread across construction. The main variables to weigh are the length of the hold, exposure to a corridor still under development, and how a Palace-branded villa prices against the unbranded clusters nearby at resale.
