Emaar listed 17 units on 13 November 2026, from AED 1,906,888, with handover targeted for late 2030. Facts last verified 13 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Developer | [Emaar Properties](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/emaar) | | Location | [Emaar South](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/emaar-south), Dubai | | Status | launched | | Developer's handover target | Q4 2030 | | Sales launched | 2026-09 | | Tenure | freehold | | Price | From AED 1,906,888 (published figure, 13 November 2026) | | Home types | 1-bedroom apartments, 2-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom townhouses | | Golden Visa value test | All published prices are below AED 2,000,000 | ## Overview Golf Trails is the newest building in [Emaar South](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/emaar-south), the golf community that [Emaar](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/emaar) is building inside Dubai South, beside Expo City Dubai and Al Maktoum International Airport. Emaar describes it as a mid-rise scheme facing the community's 18-hole course, close to the clubhouse and driving range. It mixes one- to three-bedroom apartments with three-bedroom townhouses. Emaar lists it under its new launches. On 13 November 2026 its website showed 17 units available, with prices from AED 1,906,888 and sizes from 1,096 to 2,610 sq ft. The same page gives a launch starting price of AED 1.25 million, and Property Finder lists launch prices from AED 1.1 million for a one-bedroom apartment, AED 1.5 million for a two-bedroom, AED 2.8 million for a three-bedroom and AED 2.9 million for a townhouse. The gap between those launch figures and Emaar's current lowest price suggests the smaller, cheaper units have largely gone, so treat the launch prices as history rather than an offer. Property Finder gives an expected booking date of September 2026 and a completion target of October 2030, which makes this one of the later handovers in Emaar South. The plan it lists is 10% on booking, 70% in seven instalments during construction and 20% on handover. That is the standard structure across Emaar's recent Emaar South phases; there is no post-handover element. Shared facilities sit on the podium: adult and children's pools, a gym, a children's play area and a multi-purpose room, with the golf course, community centre and driving range in the wider community. Emaar gives Emaar South a total of 22,700 homes, 25 neighbourhood parks and 53,000 sq m of shops and restaurants when complete. Who it suits: buyers who want a golf-course address in the south of the city at a lower entry price than Dubai Hills Estate, and investors who expect the Al Maktoum airport expansion to lift demand in this corridor. What to weigh: handover is four years away; Emaar keeps releasing similar buildings next door, including Golf Vale, Vista Ridge and Grove Ridge, so resale competition will be strong; and the area is car-dependent, with the nearest metro at Expo City. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | Not published | | | | available | | 2-bedroom apartments | Not published | | | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | Not published | | | | available | | 3-bedroom townhouses | Not published | | | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 10/70/20 - Down payment: 10% (At booking) - During construction: 70% (Seven instalments) - On handover: 20% (On completion) Paid before handover: 80%.
