1 bedroom apartment for sale in Dubai Maritime City
Two one-bedroom options in Dubai Maritime City: Hilton Residences (price on request, 20/40/40) and Chelsea Residences (AED 2.17 million published, 60/40, developer-estimated December 2029 handover).
A one-bedroom apartment in Dubai Maritime City comes from two projects in the Orven selection: Hilton Residences, where pricing is on request, and Chelsea Residences by DAMAC, which publishes a one-bedroom starting price of AED 2.17 million, subject to availability. Only Chelsea gives you a number to plan against today; Hilton's one-bedroom price is confirmed by your adviser on request.
Hilton Residences: branded waterfront living, price on request
Hilton Residences brings branded waterfront living to Dubai Maritime City, with one- to three-bedroom residences and penthouses, an infinity swimming pool, wellness deck, cinema lawn, casual sky lounge, city-view work area and fitness and recreation facilities. Its payment plan is published at 20% on reservation, 40% during construction and 40% on handover. No starting price has been published for any Hilton Residences unit type at the time of writing, one bedroom included; our Hilton Residences payment plan guide sets out how that 20/40/40 structure works in practice once pricing is confirmed.
Chelsea Residences: a published one-bedroom price
Chelsea Residences by DAMAC sits on the shoreline neighbouring J1 Beach and the Maritime Beach and Yacht Club, with one to three bedroom apartments and a Legends Collection of themed units. The developer brochure supplied to Orven on 17 September 2026 lists a one-bedroom starting price of AED 2.17 million, subject to availability. The published payment plan is 20% on reservation, then 40 monthly instalments of 1% each from month 3 to month 42, then 40% on handover, a 60/40 split overall, with the 4% Dubai Land Department fee due on top of the deposit. Handover is estimated for December 2029 per the brochure; the developer's own project page was not accessible to verify this independently at the time of research. See our full Chelsea Residences guide for the complete amenity list, including Chelsea Lion Beach, the Chelsea Athlete training centre and the Serenity spa.

Who a Dubai Maritime City one bedroom suits
Dubai Maritime City is a peninsula district positioned for waterfront living close to Downtown Dubai and the airport. A one bedroom here suits a single professional or couple wanting a compact, branded residence, or an investor targeting tenants who value a waterfront address without a family-size unit. Our Dubai Maritime City district guide covers both projects and the wider neighbourhood, and living in Dubai Maritime City describes day-to-day life on the peninsula. If your search for a one bedroom extends beyond this district, our citywide one bedroom apartment for sale in Dubai guide sets out other projects in the selection with published or on-request pricing.
What the numbers mean for a buyer
At AED 2.17 million, Chelsea's one bedroom sits above the AED 2 million Golden Visa investment threshold, subject to conditions to confirm with the authorities, which some buyers factor into the decision alongside the apartment itself. Converted at the fixed parity of 1 USD = 3.6725 AED, AED 2.17 million is approximately 591,000 USD; the euro conversion is not fixed day to day, so check the current rate with your bank rather than relying on a stated euro figure. On Chelsea's 60/40 plan, the reservation payment of 20% on AED 2.17 million is approximately AED 434,000, plus the 4% DLD fee, before the monthly 1% instalments begin.
