Al Zorah Seaside Hills

Al Zorah Seaside Hills is a completed residential building by Solidere International, positioned within Al Zorah City on the Arabian Gulf coastline, approximately 30 kilometres north of central Dubai. The project comprises nine semi-furnished apartments across a single building, with prices running from AED 2.19 million for a one-bedroom to AED 3.93 million for a two-bedroom.

# The building and its position within Al Zorah City

Al Zorah City is one of the more quietly ambitious mixed-use developments on the northern Emirates coastline, built across a site of over five million square metres that incorporates beaches, mangrove forest, a marina, and a championship golf course. Seaside Hills sits within this wider community rather than beside a generic ring road. The building is complete, with construction progress confirmed at 100 per cent, which removes the execution risk that attaches to so many off-plan purchases in the region.

Solidere International, the developer behind the project, is the international arm of Solidere, the company best known for rebuilding central Beirut. That lineage tends toward considered urban planning rather than speculative volume building, and it shows in how Al Zorah City has been assembled around its natural landscape rather than despite it.

# Residences: layouts, scale and specification

The nine apartments span one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. One-bedroom units measure 1,053 sq ft. Two-bedroom apartments run between 2,332 and 2,352 sq ft, priced from AED 3.9 million. Three-bedroom residences extend from 2,513 to 3,136 sq ft, with pricing from AED 4.21 million to AED 6.17 million.

Finishes follow a neutral, contemporary palette: ceramic full-body tiles to floors and skirting, emulsion-painted walls, gypsum board ceilings with recessed lighting. Bathrooms carry vanity units with solid tops and under-counter basins. Kitchens arrive with appliances installed, solid-frame cabinetry with melamine interiors, granite countertops, and stainless steel sinks. The building is delivered semi-furnished.

Terraces are a defining feature of the upper-floor apartments. Their elevation above the villa rooftops to the south gives unobstructed sightlines across the coastline, a spatial advantage that photographs rarely do justice to.

# Amenities across the Al Zorah community

# On the doorstep

The Zoya Wellness Center and a private beach sit within the development. A swimming pool, gym, and landscaped garden are part of the residential offering. A 10-kilometre cycling and running track runs through the community.

# The wider Al Zorah infrastructure

The 18-hole Nicklaus Championship Golf Course anchors the broader community and carries the kind of brand recognition that holds value in resale markets. The five-star Oberoi Beach Resort operates within Al Zorah City, providing hotel-grade food and beverage and hospitality services to residents without the need to leave the district. Water sports facilities complete the outdoor leisure picture. The natural mangrove forest, which runs through parts of Al Zorah, is protected habitat rather than decorative landscaping.

# Getting around: distances and connections

Al Zorah Marina 1 is 1.4 kilometres from the building. Al Zorah Public Beach sits 2.2 kilometres away. Ajman Global Village Mall is 5.4 kilometres by road. Sharjah International Airport is 27.5 kilometres distant, with Dubai International Airport further south along the Emirates Road corridor.

The location places residents outside Dubai's core traffic pressure while keeping both emirate centres accessible. For buyers who work remotely, travel frequently by air, or prioritise space and natural surroundings over proximity to the DIFC, that calculus often favours this part of the coast.

# Who this building suits and where it sits in the market

Service charges are set at AED 23 per sq ft annually, a figure worth factoring against comparable waterfront projects where charges frequently run higher. With only nine units in the building, the community is small by any measure, which shapes both the ownership profile and the long-term resale dynamic.

The buyer most suited to Seaside Hills is not chasing yield in a high-volume tower. This is a building for those prioritising physical environment: access to the Gulf, proximity to managed green space and a golf course, and a lower-density setting than Dubai Marina or Palm Jumeirah deliver. GCC buyers seeking a secondary home, European buyers drawn by the combination of climate and nature, and long-stay residents who want separation from urban density are all profiles that fit. The completed status means occupation or rental can begin immediately, without the typical 12-to-24-month wait that shapes so much purchasing behaviour in this market.
