From AED 1.52 million, due March 2029. Facts last verified 13 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Developer | [Sobha Realty](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/sobha-realty) | | Location | [Siniya Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/umm-al-quwain/siniya-island) (Marina Residences), Umm Al Quwain | | Status | under construction | | Developer's handover target | Q1 2029 | | Tenure | freehold | | Price | From AED 1,520,000 (published figure, 12 November 2026) | | Average price per sq ft | AED 2,963 | | Home types | 1-bedroom apartments, 2-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom apartments | | Golden Visa value test | All published prices are below AED 2,000,000 | ## Overview Pierside Marina Residences is a Marina Residences cluster that [Sobha Realty](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/sobha-realty) is building on [Siniya Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/umm-al-quwain/siniya-island) in Umm Al Quwain. Sobha describes open sea views, a footbridge connecting the two sides of the island, and access to a motorised seawater waterway. The building currently on sale is Tower C, and its apartments are sold fully furnished. Sobha's floor plans show four one-bedroom layouts of 513 to 616 sq ft, all with a powder room, the largest with a ground-level yard instead of a balcony. Four two-bedroom layouts run from 685 to 809 sq ft. Sobha also publishes a three-bedroom plan of about 2,155 sq ft with a maid's room, but its current listing describes Pierside as one- and two-bedroom apartments of 614 to 1,214 sq ft, so the larger unit may not be on offer. Ask before planning around it. On 12 November 2026 Sobha's website listed Pierside from AED 1.52 million up to AED 3.63 million, subject to availability. Property Finder lists the same AED 1.52 million entry price for a one-bedroom and shows stock as available, but gives no price for the larger types. That puts the one-bedroom at roughly AED 2,450 to 2,950 per sq ft, among the higher rates for a small apartment on the island. The plan listed on Property Finder is 20% on booking, four instalments of 10% at 12, 18, 24 and 30 months from booking, and 40% on handover. Property Finder records construction from February 2025 and completion in March 2029. Sobha's page does not give a date. Pierside suits a buyer who wants a compact, furnished apartment with sea views that can be let from completion. It is one of several similar towers in the Marina Residences, many with near-identical layouts and similar dates, and much of what makes the location attractive, including the yacht club, golf course and mall, is still to be built. Sobha gives 10 minutes to Al Marjan Island, 30 to Sharjah and 50 to Dubai. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | AED 1,520,000 | | 513 to 616 sq ft | | available | | 2-bedroom apartments | Not published | | 685 to 809 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | Not published | | 2,153 to 2,157 sq ft | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 12 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 20/40/40 - Down payment: 20% (On booking) - Construction instalment: 10% (12 months from booking) - Construction instalment: 10% (18 months from booking) - Construction instalment: 10% (24 months from booking) - Construction instalment: 10% (30 months from booking) - On handover: 40% (Q1 2029 (Property Finder)) Paid before handover: 60%.
