Bayfront Marina Residences
Fully furnished one- to three-bedroom apartments in Tower A of Bayfront, a lagoon-facing Marina Residences cluster on Sobha's Siniya Island in Umm Al Quwain, from AED 1.36 million, due September 2029.
What works
- Sold fully furnished, ready to let on completion.
- A 10% deposit, with 40% held until completion on the published plan.
- Lagoon and promenade setting on the marina side of the island, as described by Sobha.
What to weigh
- Two-bedroom layouts vary from about 672 to 988 sq ft; the starting price will relate to the smallest.
- The three-bedroom costs about AED 6.1 million, roughly AED 2,800 per sq ft including its terrace.
- Several near-identical Marina Residences clusters complete between 2029 and 2030, so resale and rental competition will be strong.
Tranquil Beach Residences
One- to three-bedroom beach apartments on Sobha's Siniya Island in Umm Al Quwain, launched in March 2026 and listed by Sobha from AED 1.40 million. Sobha gives 2030 for handover; no payment plan is published.
What works
- Entry price of AED 1.40 million is among the lower figures for a beach apartment on Siniya Island
- Several layouts include private yards, and the three-bedroom home has a terrace of about 875 sq ft
- Detailed floor plans with internal and outdoor areas are published by Sobha
What to weigh
- Sobha gives only a handover year, 2030, and publishes no payment plan or construction status; no portal project page was found to verify them
- Prices are given only as a project range of AED 1.40 million to AED 6.24 million, not by unit type
- The three-bedroom area includes a large terrace, so the price per square foot of internal space is higher than the headline suggests
