Talea by Beyond: Apartments and Penthouses in Dubai Maritime City
Beyond is developing Talea in Maritime City, a coastal district on Dubai's waterfront. The project spans one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom penthouses, with construction underway since March 2026 and completion targeted for June 2028. The entry requirement is 10% down, which sits at the low end of what Dubai off-plan projects typically ask for. That low threshold, combined with a coastal address and a realistic handover window, is where this project makes its case.
Getting In for 10%
| Stage | Amount |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 50% |
The payment structure is front-light and handover-heavy. You commit 10% to secure the unit, spread 40% across the construction period, and pay the remaining 50% at possession in mid-2028. A 10% entry is relatively accessible for Dubai off-plan. It means a buyer can hold a position in Maritime City with limited upfront exposure while the project is built. The significant commitment comes at handover, when half the purchase price falls due as a single tranche.
Maritime City: Coastal Access Without the Premium Price Tag
Maritime City sits on Dubai's coastline between Port Rashid and the industrial waterfront. It carries an explicit maritime identity and has been developed with waterfront access as a core feature. The district is still building out its retail and services layer, which means the living experience in 2026 is different from what residents will find by 2028 and beyond.
On connectivity, the location is accessible from Sheikh Zayed Road and within roughly 20 to 30 minutes of Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, and Dubai International Airport. Waterfront positioning at this price level distinguishes Maritime City from established premium addresses like Dubai Marina or Palm Jumeirah.
What AED 3.775M to AED 5.52M Covers
The price range tracks bedroom count with a clear logic. Two-bedroom apartments start at AED 3,775,000, with sizes from 1,317 to 1,461 square feet across three layout configurations, including a maid's room option. Three-bedroom apartments start at AED 5,520,000, in layouts of 1,795 to 1,883 square feet, both with maid's rooms included.
At the lower end, AED 3.775M is a two-bedroom apartment with over 1,300 square feet in a waterfront district at a 10% entry cost. At the upper end, AED 5.52M delivers a three-bedroom with maid's room at nearly 1,900 square feet. The spread reflects a practical step-up in bedroom count and floor area rather than two distinct product types sharing a building.
Unit Mix: From One Bedroom to Full Penthouse
Talea runs four configurations. One-bedroom apartments sit at 757 square feet. Two-bedroom units range from 1,317 to 1,461 square feet. Three-bedroom apartments span 1,795 to 1,883 square feet. At the top: a four-bedroom penthouse at 4,462 square feet.
The two and three-bedroom apartments anchor the published price range and are the core product. Maid's room variants appear in both the two and three-bedroom tiers, which matters for families who need a dedicated live-in staff room or want a separate home workspace. The penthouse at over 4,400 square feet occupies a different category of scale.
What the Amenity Set Says
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Recreation | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Services | Restaurants, CCTV Security |
Six amenities cover the practical bases. The indoor pool and gymnasium address fitness without needing to leave the building. The children's play area and landscaped gardens signal that this project is positioned for families. On-site dining carries specific relevance here: Maritime City's surrounding retail is still in development, so having restaurants within the building removes friction for day-to-day residents. The amenity count is modest by Dubai's larger development standards, but it is coherent and functional for its target resident.
June 2028 Handover: Where Off-Plan Buyers Stand Now
Construction at Talea started in March 2026. The expected handover is June 2028, approximately 22 months from today. For a buyer entering now, roughly four months of construction are already behind the project and the remaining build window is standard for this type of development.
The payment schedule aligns with that horizon. The 40% during construction distributes across the remaining build months, with the final 50% due at handover in mid-2028. Entry now means three payment stages spread over approximately two years, with the largest single payment falling on completion.
