Marriott Residences by Saba in Jumeirah Lake Towers
Saba Properties is developing this residential tower under the Marriott brand in Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT), Dubai. The project delivers apartments across one, two, and three bedrooms. Construction started in September 2024, with handover targeted for June 2027.
A JLT Address and What It Means
JLT runs along Sheikh Zayed Road, with two metro stations (DMCC and Sobha Realty) giving residents direct rail access across Dubai. Dubai Marina is roughly 10 minutes away by metro. Downtown Dubai is approximately 25 minutes. Dubai International Airport takes around 30 to 35 minutes by road.
Three artificial lakes anchor the district's layout, with restaurants, cafes, and retail lining the lakeside at ground level. The DMCC free zone is headquartered in JLT. For residents who work within the cluster, a JLT address removes the daily commute. For those working elsewhere, the metro provides a direct connection.
The Marriott name brings a recognized hospitality brand to a residential address.
What AED 2.1M to AED 4.8M Buys You
The price range maps directly onto bedroom count:
| Bedroom Type | Starting Price | Size Range |
|---|---|---|
| 1-bedroom | AED 2,103,000 | 887 to 1,035 sq ft |
| 2-bedroom | AED 3,168,000 | 1,403 to 1,496 sq ft |
| 3-bedroom | AED 4,801,000 | ~2,194 sq ft |
The spread from AED 2.1M to AED 4.8M is close to 2.3 times from bottom to top. Most of that gap is explained by bedroom count rather than variation within a tier.
A buyer at AED 2.1M gets a compact one-bedroom suited to a single occupant or couple. AED 3.2M opens up a two-bedroom with 1,400 to 1,500 sq ft, which works for a couple needing a spare room or a small family. The three-bedroom at AED 4.8M gives a full family layout at more than double the entry price.
One-bedrooms cover the most size variety, from 887 to 1,035 sq ft at the same starting price. That reflects different layout configurations rather than price variation within the tier.
Getting In for 10%
The entry requirement is a 10% down payment.
| Stage | % of Purchase Price |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 50% |
| At handover | 40% |
On a one-bedroom at AED 2,103,000, the down payment is AED 210,300. The 50% during construction runs across the build period from late 2024 to mid-2027. The remaining 40% falls due at handover in June 2027 as a single payment. There is no post-handover installment option.
On a two-bedroom at AED 3,168,000, the handover payment comes to AED 1,267,200. The 40% at handover creates a concentrated capital requirement at a fixed date, with no installment buffer after that point.
Eight Amenities, From Tennis Courts to Cinema
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Sports | Gymnasium, Tennis Courts, Running Track |
| Pools | Infinity Pool, Children's Pool |
| Entertainment | Cinema, Barbecue Area |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
Eight amenities across four categories. The cinema is a dedicated on-site screening facility. Tennis courts, a running track, and a gymnasium form a multi-format sports cluster within the building. The children's pool and play area serve residents with young children. The barbecue area adds a communal outdoor cooking and dining option.
The combination of active sports, family amenities, and social outdoor space points toward a building aimed at resident-occupiers who use the facilities regularly. The indoor-outdoor balance, with an infinity pool and tennis courts outside and a cinema and gymnasium inside, gives residents meaningful variety across seasons.
Twelve Months to Handover
Construction started in September 2024. Handover is scheduled for June 2027, a build window of approximately 33 months. For buyers entering now, completion is roughly 12 months away. The remaining construction-phase payments and the 40% handover tranche both fall within that near-term window.
