Emaar groups it with its Downtown Dubai releases, while its project address and Property Finder place it in [Business Bay](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/business-bay), a few minutes' drive from [Downtown Dubai](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/downtown-dubai). Property Finder gives expected completion in June 2031, the latest handover among Emaar's current central releases. The mix runs from one- to four-bedroom apartments and includes one six-bedroom penthouse of about 14,861 sq ft. Property Finder's FAQ lists one-bedroom units of 788 to 828 sq ft from AED 2.7 million, two-bedroom units of 1,199 to 1,449 sq ft from AED 4 million, three-bedroom units of 1,640 to 1,848 sq ft from AED 5.7 million and four-bedroom units of 4,225 to 4,795 sq ft from AED 13 million. On 13 November 2026 Emaar's inventory showed 17 units available from AED 3,232,888, with sizes of 828 to 1,818 sq ft. Facilities include a pool, gym, yoga deck, cabanas, steam and sauna rooms and a jogging track. The plan on Property Finder is 10% on booking, 80% during construction and 10% on handover. A five-year build with only 10% at the end spreads most of the cost over the construction period. Who it suits: buyers who want a Palace-branded home in central Dubai and are comfortable with a 2031 handover. What to weigh: the long timeline means more market cycles before completion, and branded buildings usually carry higher service charges. Property Finder recorded resale transactions from March 2026, so early buyers are already reselling. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | AED 2,700,000 | | 788 to 828 sq ft | | limited | | 2-bedroom apartments | AED 4,000,000 | | 1,199 to 1,449 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | AED 5,700,000 | | 1,640 to 1,848 sq ft | | available | | 4-bedroom apartments | AED 13,000,000 | | 4,225 to 4,795 sq ft | | available | | 6-bedroom penthouses | Not published | | 14,861 sq ft | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 10/80/10 - Down payment: 10% (At booking) - During construction: 80% (Instalments to completion) - On handover: 10% (Q2 2031) Paid before handover: 90%.
