New beachfront residences in Dubai have just launched and they’re next-level
What’s next for beachfront residences in Dubai
Dubai’s next big addition to the world of beachfront residences in Dubai isn’t in the clouds, it’s low-key, low-rise, and landing right in the middle of Jumeirah 1. Solaya is the latest residential launch from Dubai Holding Investments under the renowned Meraas brand, in partnership with Brookfield Properties, marking the next chapter in a longstanding collaboration. And it’s set to bring a new kind of energy to the city’s coastline.
It’s all clean architecture, wide terraces, private pools and a location that’s somehow both central and secluded. If you’ve been on the lookout for new beachfront residences in Dubai, this one already stands out.

There’s a new name in the world of beachfront residences in Dubai, and it’s landing in one of the city’s most iconic neighbourhoods. Solaya, a new development from Dubai Holding and Brookfield Properties, brings 234 contemporary homes to the shores of Jumeirah 1. Minimal, modern and very now.
Think palm-framed sea views, big open layouts, and a design team that includes global architecture heavyweight Foster + Partners and interiors studio 1508 London.
Not your typical residences

Solaya isn’t playing by the rules. Spread across nine low-rise buildings, the collection includes two- to five-bedroom apartments, plus penthouses, duplexes and 18 garden houses with private infinity pools and secluded courtyards. Every penthouse comes with a private lift, lobby, and terrace pool, so it’s quiet luxury all the way.

Each space has been built to make the most of its location, tall ceilings, open-plan layouts, and panoramic views across the Arabian Gulf and the Dubai skyline. It’s not overly styled. Just good architecture doing its thing.
Location

Set in Jumeirah 1, the address puts you right between the beach and the buzz. You’re minutes from J1 Beach, with Downtown not far behind. It’s rare to get this kind of access and privacy in one place, but that’s part of Solaya’s pull.
Amenities

There’s a spa with saunas and treatment rooms, a private cinema, an exclusive residents’ lounge, a state-of-the-art gym with dedicated studios, plus spaces for private dining and meetings. Everything you need – no reason to step outside.
