Emaar South

Spanning about 7 square kilometers, Emaar South is designed as a balanced, family-friendly area that mixes quiet home life with easy access to jobs. When finished, the community will be home to over 150,000 people, with a big focus on green parks, walking paths, and having everything you need close by. Compared to high-density central Dubai districts, Emaar South offers a calmer, more spacious living environment with competitive price points and long-term upside.

Architecturally, the community follows Emaar’s contemporary, functional design language, with low- and mid-rise buildings, wide internal roads, landscaped parks, and golf-course-facing homes forming the backbone of its urban layout.

Master Plan, Scale & Residential Mix

Emaar South is structured into multiple residential clusters arranged around its central golf course and green corridors. The master plan includes over 25,000 residential units, offering a broad mix of housing types:

• Apartments: Studios, 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units in low- to mid-rise buildings, ideal for young professionals and small families

• Townhouses: 2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom layouts with private gardens, targeted at end-users

• Villas: Select premium villa enclaves, many with golf course views

Residential clusters are supported by community retail, mosques, schools, healthcare facilities, parks, and neighbourhood centres, ensuring residents can meet daily needs within a short walking or driving distance. The presence of the 18-hole golf course adds both lifestyle appeal and long-term capital value.

Location & Connectivity Advantages

Emaar South enjoys a highly strategic position within Dubai’s long-term growth zone:

• Approx. 7–10 minutes to Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC)

• Around 15 minutes to Expo City Dubai

• Approx. 30–35 minutes to Dubai Marina and JBR

• Around 40–45 minutes to Downtown Dubai and Dubai Mall

• Direct access via Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and Emirates Road (E611)

As Dubai South continues to evolve into a global aviation, logistics, and trade hub, Emaar South is expected to benefit directly from infrastructure upgrades, employment growth, and improved public transport connectivity over the next decade.

Parks, Open Spaces & Outdoor Living

Unlike high-rise urban districts, Emaar South places strong emphasis on outdoor living:

• Central 18-hole championship golf course

• Multiple neighbourhood parks and landscaped green belts

• Dedicated jogging and cycling tracks

• Children’s play areas and community plazas

• Tree-lined streets and pedestrian-friendly internal roads

This focus on open space makes the community particularly attractive to families and long-term residents.

• GEMS and other international school operators planned within Dubai South

• Existing schools in nearby communities accessible within 15–25 minutes

• Clinics and medical centres planned within community retail zones

• Larger hospitals located within 25–30 minutes driving distance
