Binghatti Aquarise, Business Bay
Binghatti Developers is building Aquarise in Business Bay, one of Dubai's most central and commercially active districts. The project is an apartment development in a neighborhood shaped equally by its proximity to DIFC and Downtown Dubai, and by the Dubai Canal waterfront that runs through it.
Business Bay: What the Address Means in Practice
Business Bay is not a quiet residential enclave. It is a high-density district where office towers, hotels, and residential buildings share the skyline. The Dubai Canal cuts through the southern part of the neighborhood, and the waterfront has developed into a walkable strip of paths, cafes, and views that soften the urban density. Sheikh Zayed Road borders the area to the west, and DIFC sits just to the north. Downtown Dubai, with its retail, dining, and landmarks, is reachable on foot or by a very short drive.
The Red Line metro station at Business Bay gives residents citywide access without a car. Dubai International Airport is roughly 20 minutes away by road. For a working professional or for an investor placing a tenant, this is one of the more connected addresses in Dubai.
A Single Entry Price
Aquarise lists at AED 2,000,000. The minimum and maximum prices are identical, which points to uniform pricing across the available units rather than a tiered range. At AED 2 million in Business Bay, this sits above the district's entry-level apartment segment. One price removes the complexity of choosing between unit grades, making the purchase decision relatively straightforward.
Apartments for the Urban Buyer
The project delivers apartments. Business Bay draws two broad buyer profiles: professionals seeking a primary home within easy reach of work and DIFC, and investors targeting the district's rental market. Both fit what an apartment at this price and location offers. The format suits someone comfortable with high-rise urban density in exchange for a central, well-connected address.
What the Building Offers
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Wellness & Fitness | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium, Cycle Track |
| Entertainment | Cinema, Barbecue Area |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Retail & Convenience | Retail Facilities, Covered Parking |
| Safety | Security |
Nine amenities total. The indoor pool and gym are expected at this price level. The cinema and cycle track push the offering past the standard. A cycle track inside a Business Bay residential building is uncommon, and it signals a developer targeting residents who want active lifestyle options without leaving the building. Ground-floor retail adds practical convenience for full-time residents. Taken together, the amenity set suits someone who wants a self-contained urban base rather than a bare-bones investment unit.
Completing in October 2027
Construction began in March 2025. Handover is expected in October 2027, roughly 13 months from now. A buyer entering today is purchasing a project that is underway but still about a year from delivery. The October 2027 completion gives a clear horizon for anyone coordinating around that date.
Getting In for 20%, With 60% at the End
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down Payment | 20% |
| During Construction | 20% |
| At Handover | 60% |
The 20% down payment sits in line with the Dubai off-plan market standard. A further 20% is spread across the construction period, keeping early outflows modest. The defining feature of this plan is the 60% lump sum due at handover in October 2027. There is no post-handover installment option, so the full remaining balance comes due at completion. That structure means buyers carry relatively little financial exposure during the build, but face a large payment event at the end.
