The island of ​​more than 550 hectares is connected to the mainland by a 300m long bridge. The beaches near Palm Jumeirah are famous for their pure sand. Some of them belong to specific residential complexes or hotels. The villas have private beaches. Common areas are equipped for a comfortable stay. You can walk along the marina in any part of the community.

The area is known for its architecture and access to the coast. The entrance for tourists is free. Human hands created Palm Jumeirah. The area itself includes several private sub-communities:

  • The “trunk” unites a community from various continents. Several residential complexes with premium apartments have been built there. The developer has taken care of the comfort of the apartments and the general infrastructure. Every building has everything you need for a comfortable life, from swimming pools to gyms and beauty salons.

There is no definite answer to when the Palm Jumeirah was built. The project began in 2001 by the largest developer in the UAE, Nakheel. This Arab construction organization created the first artificial island while simultaneously extending the coastline of Dubai from less than 100 km to 1,500 km.

The island’s construction lasted for several years and thereafter 4,500 residential and commercial buildings were developed on the artificial part of the embankment. Among them are gated communities of villas, residential complexes, hotels, shopping centers, cafes and restaurants. The island is based not on metal structures but natural materials, making it as natural as possible.

Until 2020, the market felt the impact of the global pandemic sharply. The situation changed in the second half of 2020 as the demand for housing began to grow while prices began to simultaneously rise.
