What Jumeirah Islands is like

A gated Nakheel villa community of 46 man-made islets set in lakes beside Jumeirah Lake Towers, completed in 2006, where new apartment towers are now being added at the edge.

Jumeirah Islands is a freehold villa community built by Nakheel on the inland side of Sheikh Zayed Road, next to Jumeirah Lake Towers and a short drive from Dubai Marina. Bayut's area guide records that it was launched in 2003 and completed in 2006, and describes 46 man-made islets set among lakes, with about 851 homes: mostly four- and five-bedroom villas of roughly 5,100 to 7,200 sq ft, plus 84 townhouses finished in 2017 and a small group of larger mansions.

For most of its life the community has been a settled, low-rise address for families. The villas are grouped into themed clusters, the lakes and planting are mature, and there is a clubhouse and the Jumeirah Islands Pavilion with a supermarket and clinic. Access is from Sheikh Zayed Road between interchanges 5 and 6, and Bayut puts the DMCC metro station in JLT as the nearest stop.

What is new is apartment supply. Ellington Properties describes Eltiera Heights as its first residential development in Jumeirah Islands, and has followed it with Eltiera Views, a group of towers it says overlooks the lake. These are high-rise apartment buildings on the community's edge near JLT, so they offer a Jumeirah Islands address at apartment prices rather than villa living.

For a buyer the area divides in two. The villas are a scarce, finished product priced as such. The new towers are off-plan apartments whose appeal rests on the lake setting, the JLT and Marina amenities next door and the developer's design; they will compete for tenants with the large stock of apartments in JLT and Dubai Marina.

Suits

  • Families wanting a gated villa community near Dubai Marina
  • Apartment buyers who want a lakeside address next to JLT
  • Buyers who drive and use Sheikh Zayed Road daily
  • Long-term holders of scarce villa stock

In its favour

  • Mature lakes, planting and clusters: Bayut records completion in 2006
  • Gated villa community of about 851 homes on 46 islets (Bayut area guide)
  • Next to Jumeirah Lake Towers, with the DMCC metro station nearby
  • About 10 minutes by car to Dubai Marina Mall and Ibn Battuta Mall (Bayut)
  • On-site clubhouse and the Jumeirah Islands Pavilion with a supermarket and clinic

Worth knowing

  • The new Ellington towers add high-rise apartments to a low-rise villa setting; check which views each unit actually has
  • Apartments here will compete for tenants with the large existing stock in JLT and Dubai Marina
  • Bayut notes the community is less convenient for residents who rely on public transport
  • Sheikh Zayed Road access is tolled and congested at peak times
  • Villa prices reflect scarcity; there is little new villa supply to compare against
