Apartments, townhouses and villas, with its own mall, park, schools and hospital. Facts last verified 12 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Emirate | [Dubai](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai) | | Area type | master community | | Tenure | Freehold for all nationalities | | Master developer | [Emaar Properties](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/emaar) | | Also known as | Dubai Hills, DHE | | Coordinates | 25.11, 55.247 | | Developments covered | 14 | ## Overview Dubai Hills Estate is a 2,700-acre master community off Al Khail Road, roughly midway between Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina. It is a joint venture between [Emaar](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/emaar) and [Meraas](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/meraas), developed and sold by Emaar, and forms the first phase of Mohammed Bin Rashid City. It is one of the few places in Dubai that works as a self-contained suburb. Emaar's figures: an 18-hole championship golf course, 1.45 million square metres of parks and open space including the 180,000 square metre Dubai Hills Park, the 282,000 square metre Dubai Hills Mall, three schools and a 54-kilometre cycle route. King's College Hospital is close by. Housing is mixed. Mid-rise apartment buildings stand near the park and the mall; townhouse and villa neighbourhoods such as Maple, Sidra and the fairway villas sit around the golf course. Current Emaar launches are nearly all apartments. In November 2026 its site listed buildings such as Greencrest, Parkwood, Hillsedge and Rosehill with one-bedroom prices from about AED 1.7 million. The schools, the park and the villa districts make it more family-oriented than most apartment-led communities. Its weak point is public transport: there is no metro station, and the nearest Red Line stations are a drive away. ## Who it suits - Families wanting schools, a park and a mall close by - Owner-occupiers planning to stay several years - Golfers - Investors letting to families and professionals ## Highlights - Complete community: mall, park, golf course, schools and a hospital are open - Central position on Al Khail Road, about 20 minutes from Downtown Dubai and the airport - Mix of apartments, townhouses and villas, unusual for a single community - Emaar as the developer of the whole community - 1.45 million square metres of parks and open space and a 54 km cycle route ## Considerations - No metro station; Bayut's guide puts the nearest Red Line stations about 20 minutes away by car - Prices and rents are above the Dubai average for comparable homes - Emaar listed 12 releases with stock here in November 2026, plus third-party towers on the fringes, so apartment supply keeps arriving - Al Khail Road and Umm Suqeim Street border the community; check a flat's orientation and distance from them before paying for a view - Many towers marketed as Dubai Hills are by other developers, not Emaar; check who is building and who will manage the building ## Drive times - Downtown Dubai: about 20 minutes - Dubai International Airport: about 20 minutes - Palm Jumeirah: about 25 minutes ## Developments in Dubai Hills Estate - [Park Gate 2](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/park-gate-2): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q1 2027; from AED 14,120,000 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Greenside Residence](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/greenside-residence): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q3 2027; from AED 4,035,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Parkside Views](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/parkside-views): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q3 2027; from AED 2,756,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Eden Hills](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/eden-hills): H&H Development; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q2 2028; from AED 43,800,000 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Club Place](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/club-place): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q4 2028; from AED 2,852,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Golf Hillside](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/golf-hillside): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q4 2028; from AED 2,902,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Hillsedge](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/hillsedge): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q1 2029; from AED 1,847,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Parkwood](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/parkwood): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q1 2029; from AED 1,759,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Greencrest](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/greencrest): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q2 2029; from AED 1,743,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Palace Residences Hillside](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/palace-residences-hillside): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q2 2029; from AED 1,719,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Rosehill](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/rosehill): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q2 2029; from AED 1,756,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Vida Residences Hillside](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/vida-residences-hillside): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; under construction; handover Q2 2029; from AED 1,827,888 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Palace Residences Hillside B](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/palace-residences-hillside-b): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; launched; handover Q4 2029; from AED 1,960,000 (as of 2026-11-13) - [Park Horizon](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-hills-estate/park-horizon): Emaar Properties; Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai; ready; handover Q3 2026; from AED 5,296,888 (as of 2026-11-13) ## Nearby areas - [Meydan](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/meydan) - [Sobha Hartland II](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/sobha-hartland-2) - [Jumeirah Village Circle](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/jumeirah-village-circle) - [Dubai Sports City](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-sports-city) - [City Walk](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/city-walk) - [Business Bay](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/business-bay) ## Questions and answers ### Who developed Dubai Hills Estate?
