Dubai Holding Investments, in partnership with Brookfield Properties, has announced the launch of Solaya, a new luxury residential project located in Dubai’s Jumeirah 1 district.

The development, unveiled under Dubai Holding Real Estate’s Meraas brand, will feature 234 high-end beachfront homes across nine buildings, set within a 40-acre site. It represents the latest joint project between Dubai Holding and Brookfield, who have previously collaborated on several retail and lifestyle destinations in the emirate.

The homes will include two- to five-bedroom apartments, penthouses with private pools and terraces, 18 garden houses with courtyards, and duplexes designed to enhance outdoor living. Designed by Foster + Partners with interiors by London-based design studio 1508, the properties are being marketed with open layouts, high ceilings and uninterrupted views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai’s skyline.

Facilities within the development will include a spa, fitness centre, residents’ lounge, private cinema, and dining and meeting spaces.

Omar Karim, CEO of Dubai Holding Investments, said the project reflects the company’s broader strategy. “Solaya reflects the company’s strategy of building global partnerships that deliver long-term value and strengthen Dubai’s position as a world-class hub,” he said.

Khalid Al Malik, CEO of Dubai Holding Real Estate, described the launch as a response to shifting residential demand. “The development responds to growing demand for wellness-focused, nature-connected living spaces,” he noted.

Brookfield Properties CEO Rob Devereux added: “Solaya is a rare opportunity for beachfront living in the heart of Dubai.”

Located in Jumeirah 1, the project offers residents both privacy and connectivity. The community will be situated near J1 Beach while also allowing easy access to Downtown Dubai and the wider city, combining seclusion with proximity to cultural and lifestyle hubs.

The launch of Solaya comes at a time when Dubai’s property sector continues to report strong sales momentum, particularly in the luxury segment, as international buyers seek high-end homes in prime city locations.
