Savanna

Savanna is a residential development by Emaar Properties in Dubai Creek Harbour, comprising three mid-rise buildings and offering one- and three-bedroom apartments with semi-furnished interiors. Completion is scheduled for July 2026, with construction now fully progressed.

# Three Buildings Around a Central Plaza

Dubai Creek Harbour occupies eight square kilometres along the historic Creek waterfront, positioned as one of Emaar's most ambitious district-scale projects. Savanna sits within this master plan as a low-key residential cluster rather than a statement tower, which gives it a different character from the broader development's more monumental ambitions.

Each of the three buildings carries a distinct exterior treatment, arranged around a shared inner plaza that anchors the community's social space. The scale is deliberate: this is neighbourhood living within a large-format waterfront district, not an isolated high-rise competing for skyline attention.

Dubai Creek Harbour Park lies 3.2 kilometres away, roughly five minutes by car, and the configuration of the buildings is oriented to draw in natural light and frame views toward the surrounding greenery.

# Apartments, Sizes and Specification

The available units run from one-bedroom apartments at 690 sq ft, priced from AED 1,958,888, to three-bedroom residences at 1,701 sq ft with prices at AED 4,375,888. Both configurations are currently on sale.

Every apartment includes at least one private balcony. Three-bedroom units come with a maid's room, a walk-in closet in the master bedroom, and built-in wardrobes in the remaining bedrooms. In the one-bedroom layouts, the kitchen and dining area flows into the living room as a single open-plan space. Interiors are delivered semi-furnished.

Service charges are estimated at AED 22–23 per sq ft annually, which buyers should factor into yield calculations at the outset.

# What the Amenity Provision Covers

Savanna's shared facilities are practical rather than extensive. Residents have access to a community pool and a dedicated children's pool, a fully equipped gym, and an outdoor play area. A multi-purpose room serves the community for events or private use.

The development also connects to Creek Harbour's Town Centre, which extends the on-site retail and dining options beyond what any single residential cluster could accommodate independently.

# Driving Distance to the Rest of the City

Dubai Festival City Mall sits 5.6 kilometres away, around eleven minutes by car. Downtown Dubai is 12.1 kilometres out, a fifteen-minute drive under normal traffic conditions. Deira International School is reachable in thirteen minutes, at 6.7 kilometres, which matters for buyers placing children.

Jumeira Public Beach is further at 16.9 kilometres and roughly twenty-four minutes. Creek Harbour is east of the city centre, so westward journeys carry the longer distances, though the road network from the area is direct.

# Who This Development Suits and Where It Sits in the Market

Savanna occupies a considered middle ground in the Creek Harbour offering. At AED 1,958,888 for a one-bedroom, the entry price sits above what many peripheral Dubai districts offer but reflects the Emaar premium and the district's long-term infrastructure investment.

The profile fits a buyer who prioritises a master-planned waterfront address over a city-centre postcode, and who values Emaar's delivery track record over speculation on a newer or less established developer. For international buyers from the UK, Europe or Asia holding property as a medium-term asset rather than a primary residence, the combination of a credible developer, a July 2026 handover, and a district with continuing public investment makes the calculus relatively straightforward.
