Projects in La Mer

A Waterfront Precinct at Jumeirah's Edge: New Projects in La Mer

La Mer is a dedicated waterfront sub-district within Jumeirah, shaped around beach access and a mix of residential and dining uses. Its sub-communities, including Port de La Mer, Le Ciel, and Solaya, share the same coastal setting but each carries its own development profile. The current listing inventory stands at 8 projects, a compact market that covers a wide range of price points and property types.

Where AED 6.99M Is the Midpoint

The median asking price is AED 6,985,000. Entry-level listings begin at AED 1,275,000; the ceiling reaches AED 111,300,000. The spread traces to the property type mix: apartments anchor the lower and mid-range, while penthouses and the single villa push the ceiling to eight figures. Buyers working with a budget below AED 3M will find limited options here. For most buyers considering La Mer, the median is the most useful anchor.

Apartments Lead, Penthouses Follow

Apartments account for 7 of the 8 listed projects, making this primarily a market for apartment buyers seeking a waterfront address in Jumeirah. The two penthouses target buyers looking for larger configurations at a La Mer address. The single duplex and villa both sit outside the typical property profile for this sub-district and price well above the median.

Two Developers, One Concentrated Market

Meraas Holding holds the larger share of the 8 listed projects; Almal Real Estate Development accounts for the remainder. With only two developers active across the sub-district, the market is concentrated rather than fragmented. For a buyer thinking about resale, that concentration simplifies pricing an exit: a precinct dominated by one well-known developer name is generally easier to benchmark than a zone where a dozen smaller names each control one or two buildings.

Handover Window and Entry Costs

The earliest completions in La Mer date to February 2024, meaning some projects have already reached handover. Buyers interested in those buildings should confirm whether available units are off-plan sales or resale before proceeding. The off-plan window extends to September 2029 for the most recently launched projects.

The minimum down payment is 5%, a low entry point by Dubai off-plan standards. None of the listed projects carry post-handover payment plans, so remaining instalments follow a completion-linked schedule through to handover.

The amenity set across La Mer projects combines beach access and on-site dining with family and wellness facilities: children's play areas, landscaped gardens, shared pools, gymnasiums, and yoga rooms appear across multiple listings. The combination points to a resident who expects walkable daily use, with both leisure and fitness options available within the development rather than offsite. Security and CCTV coverage are consistent across listings at this price tier.
