Overview

About Solaya

Solaya is a joint venture between Meraas and BGRE on the Jumeirah 1 beachfront near La Mer: nine low-rise buildings holding 234 residences, with architecture by Foster + Partners and a private beach of around 46 acres.

Ground was broken in August 2026, which moves it from a rendering to a project with a construction programme — a meaningful distinction at this price level.

Why it's on our radar

  1. 01Beachfront low-rise on Jumeirah 1 — a footprint that cannot be replicated.
  2. 02Construction under way rather than pending.
  3. 03Institutional joint-venture capital behind the scheme.

We confirm live pricing, remaining residence types and the current payment structure in writing.

Investment

The investment perspective

Considerations we would weigh, not forecasts. We do not publish yield, capital growth or resale projections.

Location: Old Jumeirah beachfront, minutes from the city rather than on an island.

Product: Low-rise, low-density: closer to a beach house than a tower.

Design: Foster + Partners authorship supports long-term positioning.

Compare With: Nikki Beach Residences, Port de la Mer and Bulgari Residences resale.

Long-term residency

Properties meeting the applicable UAE investment threshold may support eligibility for long-term residency, subject to current government rules and individual circumstances.
