Palm Jumeirah Apartments
Beach-access apartments on the island
Community guide
Palm Jumeirah apartments are the Shoreline and trunk residences plus branded apartments along the crescent, offering beach access and a lock-up-and-leave lifestyle for buyers who prefer apartment living to a villa.
Not everyone on Palm Jumeirah wants a villa, and the island's apartments answer that demand. The Shoreline and other residences along the trunk sit close to the island's retail and dining, while the crescent is home to a growing collection of branded residences attached to five-star hotels and resorts. These homes suit buyers who want beach access and a Palm address without the upkeep of a villa and garden, whether as a lock-up-and-leave second home, a full-time residence or an income-producing asset. Apartments generally rent more actively than the larger villas, which is part of their appeal to investors.

Palm Jumeirah Apartments questions, answered
What apartments are available on Palm Jumeirah?+
Palm Jumeirah offers apartments in the Shoreline and other residences along the trunk, plus branded residences along the crescent that are attached to five-star hotels and resorts. Options range from more attainable apartments to ultra-prime branded and penthouse homes.
Do Palm Jumeirah apartments have beach access?+
Many do. Apartment communities on the island typically provide residents with beach access alongside pools and resort-style amenities, which is a key reason buyers choose a Palm apartment over other Dubai waterfront locations.
Are apartments a good alternative to a Palm villa?+
For many buyers, yes. Apartments offer a Palm Jumeirah address and beach access with far less maintenance than a villa and garden, making them well suited to lock-up-and-leave second homes. They also tend to rent more actively than the larger villas, which appeals to investors.
Can foreigners buy an apartment on Palm Jumeirah?+
Yes. Palm Jumeirah is a designated freehold area, so non-UAE nationals can buy, own and sell apartments with full title registered at the Dubai Land Department. Purchases carry the standard one-off DLD transfer fee, and there is no annual property tax on the home.
