What works
- Construction past 50% at the end of 2025, with handover expected in Q2 2028.
- Bought from the developer, so no resale premium to a previous owner.
- Park and canal setting near the Beach Boulevard, as Emaar describes it.
What to weigh
- Only two units were on Emaar's inventory on 13 November 2026.
- Most of the price may be payable on signing because construction is well advanced.
- Current entry price of AED 3,197,888 compares with AED 1.71 million at launch, a different unit size.
Lyvia by Palace
A 50-storey Palace-branded tower of 478 homes in the Green Gate quarter of Dubai Creek Harbour, launched in November 2025 for Q3 2029. Emaar listed 15 units from AED 2,684,888 on 13 November 2026.
What works

- Wide mix, from one-bedroom apartments to three-bedroom townhouses.
- Emaar's inventory showed 15 units available on 13 November 2026.
What to weigh
- Branded homes usually carry higher service charges; ask for the estimate before reserving.

- Property Finder lists the project as sold out, which conflicts with Emaar's inventory; confirm availability directly.
