The Meriva Collection by Ellington, Dubai Islands: the beachfront guide for investors

What The Meriva Collection is

The Meriva Collection is a beachfront development on Dubai Islands, developed by Ellington and sold off-plan. It combines residential buildings, signature homes and a hotel within one coastal plan that brings homes close to the shoreline, alongside open landscaped areas for everyday leisure. The apartment and penthouse range covers one to four bedrooms, with a smaller set of three- and five-bedroom beachfront residences positioned as the more exclusive end of the collection.

Because the project spans standard apartments, penthouses and a distinct beachfront residence tier, tell your adviser which category you are interested in, apartment, penthouse or beachfront residence, along with your bedroom count, since these can differ meaningfully in price, position and release timing.

The renderings on the project page and in this guide are Ellington's own visualisations of the buildings and the beachfront setting. They are not photographs of construction on site, and your adviser confirms the exact floor plan for any unit before you commit to a reservation.

The published amenities

Ellington lists the following facilities for The Meriva Collection:

• Adult and children's pools
• Outdoor fitness stations
• Children's play areas
• Outdoor dining and barbecue areas
• Mini golf
• Pet park

This is a broad, family-oriented list that separates adult and children's pool space and adds a mini golf course and a dedicated pet park, both less common in our selection. It fits a large coastal masterplan aimed at year-round residents rather than a single boutique tower. Your adviser confirms which facilities sit within the specific building you are considering and which are shared across the wider development.

Dubai Islands: a growing beachfront district

Dubai Islands is one of the newer coastal masterplans in our selection, hosting several Prestige One projects as well as The Meriva Collection from Ellington. It combines beachfront residential buildings with hospitality and leisure development across a series of islands, still building out in phases.

For more on the district, our Dubai Islands district guide sets out how the area compares with other coastal locations, and the Ellington developer profile lists the developer's other projects with us, including Ocean House on Palm Jumeirah. The current unit selection for The Meriva Collection itself is on the project page.

Price and payment plan

Ellington has not published a fixed starting price or payment schedule for The Meriva Collection that Orven can print here. Send your budget, category and bedroom count; your adviser replies with the current price list and the exact instalment schedule for matching units, from the sales documents in force on the day you ask. Never pay a booking amount against a schedule you have not seen in writing.

Every off-plan payment goes to an escrow account opened for the project with a UAE bank, controlled by the Dubai Land Department, and the developer draws on it as construction milestones are certified. You can check the project's registration through the DLD's Project Status Enquiry service.

On top of the price, budget the Dubai Land Department registration fee of 4%, the fixed Oqood registration fee for an off-plan sale, and the developer's administrative charges. Bank financing for part of the price is possible for some non-residents, always subject to the lender's approval.

Which investor The Meriva Collection suits

Two profiles come up most often with this project.

An investor in Lagos or London who wants a one- or two-bedroom apartment on a growing beachfront island, in a district still building out its full hospitality and leisure programme rather than an already-finished neighbourhood.

A family in Toronto considering one of the selected three- or five-bedroom beachfront residences as a larger holding, where direct shoreline position and privacy matter more than proximity to the development's shared pools.

Rental income and capital gains are not taxed for individuals in the UAE, though your country of residence may tax them. Check with your own adviser before treating any projection as a certainty. If you want to compare beachfront options more broadly, your adviser can set The Meriva Collection against Ocean House on Palm Jumeirah.
