The Alba Resort Residences sits on the Eastern Crescent of Palm Jumeirah, part of the same OMNIYAT development as The Alba Residences but built as a fully-furnished, hotel-serviced variant. This guide stays on what the official project page confirms: size, design, services and what is still listed as on request.

The project in brief

  • Developer: OMNIYAT.
  • Location: Palm Jumeirah, Eastern Crescent.
  • Type: branded residences.
  • Typologies: 2 to 3 bedroom fully-furnished simplex and duplex resort residences, with the project description also noting duplex configurations up to 4 bedrooms.
  • Interior sizes: 1,592 to just over 5,000 sq ft, according to the official page.
  • Status: off-plan.
  • Starting price: on request, confirmed by your adviser.
  • Payment plan: on request, confirmed by your adviser.
  • Handover: Q3 2028, as displayed on the official page.
  • Official developer film: available on the project page.

Information verified on 8 October 2026. Current availability and unit-specific terms are confirmed by your adviser. Project locations on our site are approximate; ask your adviser for the exact plot before you reserve.

Zaha Hadid's design, run under Dorchester Collection service

The official page presents the architecture itself as the main feature here. Zaha Hadid Architects designed the building envelope, while Vladimir Djurovic handled the landscape, a combination that produces private pools, sunset-facing terraces and sea-facing orientation across the simplex and duplex layouts. A double-height simplex configuration sits alongside the duplex homes within the same release. Because the development operates under Dorchester Collection service standards, owners can draw on hotel-style amenities including dining, housekeeping and concierge rather than running the unit as a self-managed home. The official developer film is available on the project page if you want to see the design in motion before booking a call with your adviser.

Price and payment plan still on request

The Alba Resort Residences does not yet carry a published starting price or a staged payment structure on its official page; both are listed as on request. Treat any figure you see elsewhere for this project as unverified until your adviser confirms it directly with OMNIYAT's sales office. Once a price is confirmed, the Dubai Land Department's 4% registration fee applies on top of the unit price, alongside the fixed Oqood fee for the off-plan registration itself.

Golden Visa: a question that waits on a confirmed price

A Dubai property investment of at least AED 2 million can open the door to a Golden Visa application, under conditions to be confirmed with the authorities. Because The Alba Resort Residences has no published starting price, that eligibility cannot be assessed from the official page today. If a Golden Visa application is part of your plan, ask your adviser to confirm the exact price for the simplex or duplex you are considering before you treat the threshold as met.

Who buys at The Alba Resort Residences

A fully-furnished, hotel-serviced simplex or duplex on the Eastern Crescent of Palm Jumeirah tends to suit three distinct buyer profiles. For a full-time residence, the double-height simplex and the private pool and sunset terrace on every unit appeal to an owner who wants resort-style living without sharing outdoor space with neighbours. As a second home, the Dorchester Collection service standard (housekeeping, concierge, dining on request) keeps the property simple to maintain for an owner based in the Gulf, the UK, India, Nigeria or elsewhere in Europe who visits only part of the year. For an investor focused on rental demand, a Zaha Hadid-designed, hotel-serviced address on Palm Jumeirah is the kind of positioning that typically draws interest, though current demand, achievable rent and occupancy are estimates your adviser provides at the time of purchase, not figures published on the official page.

What to confirm before you book

  • The exact starting price once OMNIYAT publishes it, since the page currently lists it as on request.
  • The detailed payment schedule, also on request at this stage.
  • Current availability by typology among the simplex and duplex configurations.
  • Golden Visa eligibility, only once a confirmed unit price is in hand.
  • Oqood registration details and the escrow account for your deposit.
  • Whether service charges tied to the Dorchester Collection standard are published yet.

The buying process step by step

  1. You confirm your target typology and budget for The Alba Resort Residences with your adviser, who returns current availability and the price once OMNIYAT confirms it.
  2. You reserve the chosen unit; your deposit is paid into the project's escrow account, controlled by the Dubai Land Department.
  3. Oqood registration is completed with the DLD, the official record of your off-plan purchase ahead of handover.
  4. At handover, targeted for the third quarter of 2028, the remaining balance is settled and the title deed is issued in your name.

You can track construction progress at any time through the Dubai Land Department's public Project Status Enquiry service. Orven supports every step remotely, in English, French and Arabic.
