Mama Residences, Business Bay: Apartments From AED 1.4 Million
Mama Residences is a residential apartment project in Business Bay, Dubai, developed by Khamas Group Investment. The project offers studios and one- and two-bedroom apartments in one of Dubai's most central mixed-use districts.
Business Bay: Central to Almost Everything
Business Bay sits between Downtown Dubai and the Dubai Water Canal. Residents have direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, putting most of Dubai within 20 to 30 minutes by car. Downtown Dubai, the Burj Khalifa, and Dubai Mall are minutes away. Dubai International Airport is roughly 20 minutes from the district. Business Bay sits adjacent to the DIFC, making it a natural base for professionals working in either employment hub.
The canal waterfront adds outdoor amenity to a district dense with offices and towers. For buyers weighing investment potential, the location places residents within walking or short-drive distance of Dubai's two largest office concentrations.
From Studios to Two-Bedrooms: AED 1.4M to AED 2.5M
The pricing range reflects three distinct buyer tiers.
Studios start at AED 1,400,000, ranging from 473 to 492 square feet. These compact units sit at the entry level of Business Bay and suit investors targeting rental income or professionals who prioritize location over space.
One-bedroom units start at AED 1,700,000, with floor areas between 642 and 654 square feet. This tier suits owner-occupiers who want a step up from a studio without reaching the full outlay of a two-bedroom.
Two-bedroom apartments start at AED 2,500,000, spanning 839 to 907 square feet. At the larger end, that works out to roughly AED 2,756 per square foot. These suit small families, couples, or investors targeting corporate tenants who need the extra room.
Apartments Across Three Configurations
All units are apartments. The spread across studios, one-bedrooms, and two-bedrooms gives buyers options at different capital levels and holding strategies. Studio and one-bedroom buyers tend to be investors or working professionals. Two-bedroom buyers skew toward longer-term owner-users or investors targeting corporate leases.
What the Amenity Set Tells You
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Fitness & Wellness | Health Club, Gymnasium |
| Dining & Retail | Restaurants, Retail Facilities |
| Outdoor & Recreation | Landscaped Parks, Children's Play Area |
| Shared Facilities | Shared Pool |
Seven amenities cover the standard bases, with one notable detail: a health club and a separate gymnasium. Most projects at this scale offer one or the other. Having both signals a genuine wellness focus. On-site restaurants and retail reduce daily friction for residents, and the children's play area indicates the developer expects a mix of families and professionals, not purely short-stay tenants.
Getting In for 20%
| Milestone | Amount |
|---|---|
| Down Payment | 20% |
| During Construction | 20% |
| Post Handover | 60% |
The headline here is the 60% post-handover portion. Buyers commit only 40% before keys are handed over. That substantially reduces upfront capital exposure during the off-plan period.
For investors, deferring 60% to post-handover creates space to establish rental income before the largest payment falls due. For end-users, it limits financial commitment until the physical product can be seen. A 20% down payment is in line with standard Dubai off-plan market terms, so the real advantage of this structure is the back-loaded balance rather than a low entry point.
