Anantara Residences

Anantara Residences sits on the outer crescent of Palm Jumeirah, developed by Seven Tides as part of the five-star Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort. The project comprises a single building, now fully complete, offering two supersized furnished residences available for freehold purchase.

# The building and its position on the crescent

The outer crescent of Palm Jumeirah occupies a different register from the frond districts closer to the trunk. It faces the open Arabian Gulf, with the Dubai skyline visible across the water to the south, and carries a lower residential density than the more commercial stretches of the island. Anantara Residences sits within the resort itself, meaning the building benefits from hotel-grade landscaping, managed gardens and a lagoon setting that a standalone residential block could not replicate.

The architecture draws on Asian design references, in keeping with the broader Anantara resort aesthetic. The surrounding grounds include palm-lined pathways and temperature-controlled lagoon pools, which shape the character of the address as much as the building's form does.

# Residences: scale, layout and finish

The two available residences are among the largest on the crescent. The four-bedroom unit runs to approximately 9,081 sq ft, priced at AED 23,600,888. The five-bedroom extends to around 10,611 sq ft, priced at AED 28,600,888. Both figures position these as substantial whole-floor or penthouse-scale homes rather than conventional apartments.

Furnishing is included. Specification across both residences incorporates wooden flooring, walk-in wardrobes, en-suite bathrooms and an Opus smart home system. Kitchens are fitted and equipped. Each residence has terrace space looking across the Arabian Gulf on one aspect and over the resort lagoons on the other, an orientation that gives genuinely differentiated views from the same home.

Service charges run at AED 25 per sq ft annually, a figure worth factoring into total cost of ownership at this scale.

# Amenities within the resort setting

Access to the resort's private beach is the most commercially significant amenity here. For buyers accustomed to hotel-managed beach clubs, the distinction of a resident-only private beach at this address is meaningful.

The amenity provision beyond that covers the fundamentals competently: temperature-controlled lagoon pools, a gym, tennis courts and children's play areas. These are resort-standard rather than added as a residential afterthought.

# Connections to the rest of Dubai

Downtown Dubai sits approximately 30 km away, around 34 minutes by car. Dubai International Airport is roughly 40 km distant, with a typical drive of 42 minutes. Both distances reflect the crescent's position at the far reach of the island rather than the frond network closer to the mainland.

More immediately, Atlantis Mall on the apex of the palm is around 4.4 km away, approximately seven minutes by car, which covers day-to-day retail and dining requirements without leaving the island. Al Ittihad Park and Redwood Montessori Nursery are each within a 14-minute drive, relevant for buyers with families.

# Who this suits and where it sits in the market

With only two residences available, this is not a development in the conventional sense. It functions closer to an ultra-prime off-market acquisition: a fully completed, branded, furnished home within an operating five-star resort, at sizes that have almost no equivalent on the crescent.

The buyer profile is specific. These residences suit someone who wants permanent or semi-permanent use of a large Palm Jumeirah home without the operational overhead of a standalone villa, and who values the Anantara brand's service infrastructure as part of daily life. For Gulf-based buyers seeking a primary residence, or European buyers looking for a second home with reliable rental income potential during absence, the combination of scale, completion and resort integration makes the proposition self-contained. The market for homes of 9,000 sq ft and above on the outer crescent is thin by definition, which is precisely what justifies the price point.
