Emaar in Dubai: the developer's projects in the Orven selection, explained

Emaar, from the facts Orven can verify

Emaar is the developer of six projects in the Orven selection. All six are sold off-plan and all six are in Dubai. Two sit side by side at Rashid Yachts & Marina, one is on Creek Island in Dubai Creek Harbour, one is in Dubai Hills Estate, one in Expo Living at Dubai South, and one is a villa collection in The Valley along the Dubai-Al Ain Road.

Orven publishes no figures about the company itself: no founding year, no number of homes delivered, no financial data. Everything below comes from the developer's official project pages, checked on 12 and 13 September 2026, and from what our advisers confirm with its sales team. Anything beyond that is on request, and we say so.

The full list sits on the Emaar developer page, with a link to each project.

*Developer-advertised starting prices. Current units and prices require confirmation with your adviser.

Payment plans and handover dates are on request for all six. Each project page lists the amenities published by the developer.

Rashid Yachts & Marina: two projects, one waterfront

Two of the six projects share the same address, which makes them easy to compare for an investor who wants a marina setting.

Porto View places apartments and townhouses beside the marina. Two buildings share a landscaped podium with outdoor leisure spaces; interiors are bright and open-plan. Published facilities include an infinity pool, a fitness centre, children's play areas, landscaped gardens and multipurpose rooms.
Fior 1 brings one- to three-bedroom apartments to the same waterfront, with a promenade, landscaped outdoor spaces and a marina-view infinity pool. Retail is planned within the community.

The difference lies in the product mix. Porto View adds three-bedroom townhouses to the apartment range; Fior 1 stays with apartments. Both starting prices are the developer's advertised figures, so the unit available on the day you enquire may sit above them. Orven wrote a detailed guide on Fior 1 and its published starting price.

Creek, hills, Expo and valley: the other four

Beyond the marina, the Emaar projects in the selection cover four very different settings.

Creek Waters, on Creek Island in Dubai Creek Harbour, is the widest range of the six: apartments from one to four bedrooms, three-bedroom townhouses and a single five-bedroom duplex penthouse, in a contemporary tower with a landscaped amenities podium and views across Dubai Creek and the skyline.

Greencrest, in Dubai Hills Estate, is built around golf course views and open outdoor spaces, with generous balconies and terraces. The community itself offers the Dubai Hills championship golf course, Dubai Hills Park, Dubai Hills Mall and bicycle routes.

Terra Woods sits within Expo Living in Dubai South, close to Expo City. Mid-rise buildings are arranged around courtyards, parks and green pathways. The amenities list is unusual for Dubai: a barbecue courtyard, a meditation and yoga garden and a rooftop padel court alongside the main pool.

Avena is the only villa project of the group: four-bedroom homes in The Valley, offered in three façade styles, near the community's central park. Landscaped lawns, a pool deck, a playground and an outdoor cinema are published.

Which investor each project suits

The Orven advisers see three recurring profiles among buyers who ask about Emaar.

The investor from Lagos, Accra or Casablanca who wants a waterfront apartment with a published starting price to anchor the budget. Porto View and Fior 1 answer that, with the caveat that current prices are confirmed unit by unit.
The family buyer who wants space rather than a view of the skyline. Avena's four-bedroom villas and the townhouses at Porto View, Creek Waters or Terra Woods fit that brief.
The buyer who thinks first about the neighbourhood: golf and parks in Dubai Hills Estate with Greencrest, the creek with Creek Waters, or the newer Dubai South with Terra Woods.

None of this is a promise of rental income or resale value. Any figure shown to you is an illustration based on today's market.

Payment plans, prices and what Orven confirms

Emaar publishes its payment plans project by project, and they are on request for all six projects in the selection. This is different from the Prestige One portfolio, where a 20% reservation payment is published across the range and 20/80 is verified for Coastal Haven. For an Emaar unit, your adviser sends the schedule that applies to the specific unit, taken from the sales documents in force on the day.

Whatever the plan, the same rules apply. Instalments go to the project's escrow account under Dubai Land Department control. The DLD registration fee of 4% of the price, the Oqood registration for off-plan units and the developer's administrative fee come on top of the price. Bank financing for part of the price is possible for some non-residents, always subject to the lender's approval.

How to check a developer before you pay

Whichever project you consider, three checks take a few minutes and cost nothing:

The project appears in the DLD's Project Status Enquiry service with an escrow account. Your transfers go to that account and nowhere else.
The broker is licensed. Orven's brokerage is provided through ORVEN REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE L.L.C S.P.C (Economic License No. CN-6800129, ADRA).
The sale agreement states the completion date, the full payment schedule and the cancellation terms before you sign.

Send your budget and preferred district on WhatsApp at +971 52 776 1939, or write to sales@orvenproperties.com. An adviser replies with the two or three Emaar units that match, their price of the day and their payment schedule.

FAQ

Which Emaar projects are in the Orven selection? Six: Porto View and Fior 1 at Rashid Yachts & Marina, Creek Waters at Dubai Creek Harbour, Greencrest at Dubai Hills Estate, Terra Woods at Expo Living in Dubai South, and Avena villas in The Valley.

What are the starting prices of the Emaar projects? Two are published by the developer: from AED 1.93 million at Porto View and from AED 2.2 million at Fior 1, both subject to current availability. The other four are on request.

Does Emaar offer a 20% reservation plan? Payment plans for the six Emaar projects in the selection are on request. Your adviser confirms the schedule for the exact unit from the sales documents. The 20% reservation opening is published on the Prestige One projects, not on these.
