About Dubai Marina
Living and investing in Dubai Marina
Dubai Marina holds the distinction of being the world’s second largest man-made marina and is a prime location for both foreign and local buyers looking to purchase property. It’s easy to see why it’s so popular, as residents have access to all essential amenities and facilities, all set against the stunning backdrop of the marina.
Dubbed “Arabian Venice” due to its expansive gulf, Dubai Marina is a prestigious residential area in Dubai, renowned for its array of skyscrapers, hotels, and restaurants. Despite its compact size of just four square kilometers—making it one of the smallest districts in Dubai, second only to the two square kilometer Downtown Dubai—Dubai Marina stands as the most densely developed and populated area.
Situated on the western side of Dubai between Jebel Ali and Al Sufouh, Dubai Marina encompasses ten smaller districts, with Jumeirah Beach Residence being the most notable among them. This area was designed and developed by Emaar Properties, a major developer operating under the auspices of the government, known also for iconic projects like Downtown Dubai, The Dubai Mall, Dubai Opera, and the Dubai Fountain.
Encircling a man-made harbor that stretches up to three kilometers, Dubai Marina justifies its name as a “harbor for yachts.” Construction began in 2003 and is now nearing completion, with plans for it to become the largest artificial yacht harbor in the world, surpassing Marina del Rey in California, USA.

Is Dubai Marina a freehold area?
Yes. Dubai Marina is one of Dubai's designated freehold areas, so buyers of any nationality can own property there outright, with a title deed issued by the Dubai Land Department.
What does it cost to buy a property in Dubai on top of the price?
Budget for about 6% to 7% on top of the purchase price. The Dubai Land Department transfer fee is 4% of the price. The registration trustee fee is about AED 4,200 for a property above AED 500,000, the title deed fee is about AED 580, and agency commission is typically 2% plus VAT. Buyers with a mortgage also pay a mortgage registration fee of 0.25% of the loan amount.
Does buying property in Dubai give me a residence visa?
Property worth AED 2 million or more can qualify the owner for a 10-year Golden Visa, and property worth AED 750,000 or more for a 2-year investor visa. The rules are set by the UAE authorities and change from time to time, so we confirm your eligibility before you commit to a purchase.
