Overview

Fully furnished one- and two-bedroom apartments in Tower C of Pierside, a Marina Residences cluster facing the open sea on Sobha's Siniya Island, Umm Al Quwain. From AED 1.52 million, due March 2029.

Pierside Marina Residences is a Marina Residences cluster that Sobha Realty is building on 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.

Buying costs

Government fees are paid on top of the purchase price. This is the position for the entry-level home; costs scale with price. In Umm Al Quwain the registration authority is the UAQ Urban Planning.

Developers may add their own administration charge on off-plan sales. It is set by the developer, not the land department, so it is not included in this estimate: ask for it in writing before you reserve. Registration fees in Umm Al Quwain are quoted inconsistently by official and market sources, so treat this as indicative. Adjust the assumptions in the buying cost calculator.

Adviser's view

What works

Instalments are fixed at 12, 18, 24 and 30 months, with 40% held until completion.

What to weigh

The one-bedroom price works out at roughly AED 2,450 to 2,950 per sq ft, high for apartments of about 500 to 600 sq ft.
Prices for two-bedroom units are not published by either source.
Layouts are almost identical to those in Yachtside and Bayside, which are on sale at the same time; expect direct competition at resale and for tenants.
The yacht club, golf course and mall are island master-plan facilities still to be built.
Umm Al Quwain's off-plan, escrow and registration rules could not be verified from an official source. Ask Sobha for the escrow account and registration details in writing.
