Salva at The Heights by Emaar Properties

Salva at The Heights is a collection of 483 three, four and five bedroom villas by Emaar Properties inside The Heights Country Club & Wellness, a wellness-led master community in Dubai. It is an off-plan project at the early construction stage, with handover scheduled for July 2030.

Salva occupies the western half of The Heights, entered through its own gated boulevard, with the community's central lake and wellness zone just to the north-east. The Heights sits at the junction of E611 (Emirates Road) and E77, about 10 minutes' drive from Expo City Dubai and Al Maktoum International Airport, 20 minutes from Dubai Hills Estate and 30 minutes from Downtown Dubai according to Emaar's project brochure. Community facilities include a Wellness Centre and Clubhouse, a wellness lake and promenade, a private beach, a linear park, sport courts and community pools, all covered in the The Heights community guide.

Salva villas start from AED 6.70M ≈ USD 1.82M for a 3 bedroom villa of approx. 3,340 sq ft (310 sq m). 4 bedroom villas start from AED 8.20M ≈ USD 2.23M (approx. 4,302 sq ft, 400 sq m) and 5 bedroom villas from AED 11.00M ≈ USD 2.99M (approx. 5,884 sq ft, 547 sq m). The final price depends on the specific villa and the release it belongs to.

Every Salva layout includes a carport and terraces or balconies. The 3 bedroom villa is arranged over ground and first floors and is the lowest-cost way into The Heights. The 4 and 5 bedroom villas add a roof floor, which gives larger households a third level for family space or entertaining, and the 5 bedroom layout carries the most terrace and balcony area of the three. Investors usually weigh the smaller capital outlay of the 3 bedroom against the space premium of the larger villas.

Emaar's published plan is 80/20: 80% is paid during construction and 20% on completion. It starts with a 10% down payment on booking, followed by 10% instalments dated March 2026, September 2026, March 2027, September 2027, June 2028, November 2028 and May 2029, and a final 20% in July 2030 on construction completion. Because the schedule runs on fixed dates, a buyer reserving now confirms in the SPA how any instalments dated before the booking are settled.

Handover is scheduled for July 2030. Salva is at an early construction stage, with enabling works under way at the June 2026 inspection, so most of the build is still ahead. Each dated inspection reading is tracked in the Salva at The Heights construction updates guide.

Yes. Salva at The Heights is a freehold project, open to buyers of all nationalities.

On price, yes. Every Salva villa type is above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold for the 10 year UAE Golden Visa, with the entry 3 bedroom villa at AED 6.70M, subject to the eligibility rules in force when you apply. The Salva at The Heights Golden Visa guide covers eligibility and the application steps in detail.

The main cost on top of the villa price is the 4% DLD registration fee, paid to the Dubai Land Department at booking alongside the 10% down payment; it is a government fee and does not count toward the purchase price. There is no advisory fee when buying through me, because the developer pays the commission and you pay the same official price as buying directly.

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

Off-plan instalments are paid into the project's DLD-registered escrow account held with Emirates Islamic Bank and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The mechanics are explained in the Salva at The Heights escrow account guide.

Salva has 483 villas in total, and 18 units were available in September 2026. Availability at an Emaar project moves with developer releases: units come to market in batches, and pricing can be revised from one release to the next, so the available count and the price list should always be read together and on the same date.
