Avarra by Palace
A Palace-branded Emaar tower on the Business Bay side of Downtown Dubai, launched May 2026 for Q2 2031. One- to four-bedroom apartments and a six-bedroom penthouse; Emaar listed 17 units from AED 3,232,888 on 13 November 2026.
What works
- Palace branding from Emaar's hospitality group in a central location.
- 10/80/10 plan spreads most payments over a five-year build.
- 17 units on Emaar's inventory on 13 November 2026, across one- to three-bedroom sizes.
What to weigh
- Handover is not due until Q2 2031, a long exposure to market and construction risk.
- Emaar labels it Downtown Dubai while the project address and portals say Business Bay; check the plot location on the site plan.
- Early buyers are already reselling, so new purchases compete with assignment sales.
