The Dubai Beach EDITION: Shamal Holding's Apartment Project in Dubai Harbour
Shamal Holding is developing The Dubai Beach EDITION in Dubai Harbour, a master-planned waterfront district on the western coastline of Dubai. The project offers residential apartments, with construction underway since March 2026 and handover targeted for late 2029.
Dubai Harbour: What the Address Means
Dubai Harbour sits between the Palm Jumeirah and Bluewaters Island. Its anchor infrastructure includes a full-service marina and a cruise terminal, giving the district a distinctive scale among Dubai's waterfront developments. It was built as a destination address, and the leisure and dining infrastructure concentrated around it reflects that.
For practical daily life: JBR beach is immediately adjacent, Dubai Marina's restaurant and retail strip is a few minutes by car, and Sheikh Zayed Road puts Business Bay roughly 20 minutes away and Downtown Dubai around 25. Dubai International Airport is accessible in approximately 30 minutes. Buyers who want waterfront access without the land commitment of a villa, and a commute that doesn't require crossing the city, will find the geography works.
AED 8.5 Million: One Price, One Apartment Type
The listed price is AED 8,524,895, and that figure is identical at both the minimum and maximum. A flat price means no variation across unit configurations, floor levels, or views. One price point, one apartment product.
At just over AED 8.5 million, this is clearly premium. The buyer is likely a high-net-worth individual looking for a waterfront home in Dubai, whether as a primary residence, a seasonal base, or a trophy rental asset. The single-price structure confirms this is a tightly defined product, not a mixed development with entry points at multiple levels.
What Six Amenities Reveal About the Building
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Wellness & Fitness | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor & Leisure | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Food & Beverage | Restaurants |
| Security | CCTV Security |
Six facilities, tightly curated. The indoor swimming pool earns its place in a waterfront project by covering the months when outdoor swimming in Dubai is impractical due to heat. The on-site restaurant brings a hospitality element to the building, nudging it toward a serviced residential model rather than a conventional apartment tower. The children's play area confirms the project caters to families alongside investors and couples.
Construction Underway: Handover November 2029
Ground broke in March 2026. Construction is now active, which means buyers entering today are committing to a live build rather than a project still in planning. Handover is targeted for November 2029, roughly three years from now.
That three-year window is the off-plan period buyers are underwriting. The payment structure distributes the financial commitment across it.
Getting In for 10% Down
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 50% |
| At handover | 40% |
A 10% down payment means AED 852,490 secures the apartment at entry. For a project priced above AED 8.5 million, that is a low initial threshold to hold the unit. The 50% construction-linked tranche distributes the main payment across the build period, spread across three and a half years from groundbreaking to handover.
The final 40% falls at handover in late 2029. There is no post-handover payment component, so the full purchase price is settled at key collection. The low entry point and construction-period instalments make the front end of this investment accessible; the 40% at handover is the defining cash flow event.
