July-2027A precisely priced and genuinely rare distress opportunity on one of Dubai’s most exclusive island addresses — a 2-bedroom sea view apartment on a middle floor in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 by Meraas, Bluewaters Island. The original purchase price was AED 5,195,000. The seller is exiting at AED 4,675,500 — a saving of exactly AED 519,500, representing an exact 10% below the original price. The seller’s total documented acquisition cost, including 4% DLD paid at purchase, was approximately AED 5,402,800 — placing the buyer’s entry approximately AED 727,300 below the seller’s verified all-in cost. 80% of the purchase price has already been paid, leaving 20% outstanding to July 2027 handover. At AED 3,489 per sq ft for a direct sea view 2-bedroom with a middle-floor position on Bluewaters Island — home to Ain Dubai and steps from The Beach at JBR — this represents a compelling distress entry into one of the most finite and internationally recognised residential addresses in the Gulf region. Bluewaters Island is a permanent scarcity story: the island is built, finite, and adjacent to the Gulf waterfront between JBR and the Palm Jumeirah, with no new comparable land available. Acquiring a sea view unit in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 at 10% below OP with only 20% remaining to a July 2027 handover is a combination of factors that rarely aligns in this market.
Bluewaters Island is one of Dubai’s most celebrated and permanently finite residential addresses — a man-made island conceived and developed by Meraas as a mixed-use lifestyle destination positioned between JBR and the Palm Jumeirah on the Arabian Gulf waterfront. The island is home to Ain Dubai — the world’s largest observation wheel at 210 metres — which has established Bluewaters as one of the most photographed and internationally recognised landmarks in the Gulf. The residential community on the island is deliberately limited in scale, ensuring that Bluewaters Island will always be one of Dubai’s scarcest and most exclusive addresses. Bluewaters Bay is Meraas’s dedicated residential tower offering on the island — Tower 1 and Tower 2 form the Bay cluster, delivering a specific product type within the Bluewaters ecosystem. A middle-floor 2-bedroom apartment with a sea view in Tower 1 is a straightforward premium product: the Arabian Gulf sea view from a middle floor provides an elevated, open water panorama that encompasses the Gulf, the surrounding JBR and Palm Jumeirah waterfront, and the Dubai Marina skyline — a panorama that is the residential hallmark of the Bluewaters Island address. At AED 4,675,500 for 1,340 sq ft with this view and location, the seller is offering the buyer 10% below their own original price — and approximately 13.5% below their verified total acquisition cost.
This 2-bedroom apartment in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 spans 1,340 sq ft (124 sqm) on a middle floor with a direct sea view facing the Arabian Gulf. Meraas’s design specification for Bluewaters Bay reflects the premium positioning of the address — the layout prioritises the sea view from the primary living spaces and master bedroom, with the living and dining area opening to a balcony or terrace that faces the water. The 1,340 sq ft (124 sqm) footprint delivers two bedroom suites — master with en-suite bathroom — a second bedroom with bathroom access, a living and dining area of generous proportions relative to the size, a fitted kitchen, and balcony access to the sea view. The middle floor position provides the elevated perspective that makes the Arabian Gulf panorama expansive and permanent — no adjacent structures can obstruct the view at this height in the Tower 1 orientation. Full floor plan with room-by-room dimensions, bathroom layout, kitchen configuration, balcony area, and exact floor and unit orientation are available on request from our team or directly from Meraas.
This is a near-to-handover off-plan distress assignment in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1, Bluewaters Island — with 80% of the purchase price already paid and July 2027 handover approximately 14 months away.
Meraas NOC and assignment processing fees apply in addition to the above. Full payment schedule, NOC requirements, and all due diligence documentation are available on request.
The distress price is AED 4,675,500. The original purchase price was AED 5,195,000 — a saving of exactly AED 519,500 (precisely 10% below the original price). Including the seller’s estimated DLD of approximately AED 207,800, the seller’s total acquisition cost was approximately AED 5,402,800. The buyer at AED 4,675,500 — after their own DLD, admin, and agency — has an all-in of approximately AED 4,961,286, still approximately AED 441,514 below what the seller originally paid in total.
80% of the original purchase price — approximately AED 4,156,000 of the OP AED 5,195,000 — has already been paid to Meraas by the current owner. The remaining 20% (approximately AED 1,039,000 of OP) is outstanding and will be structured into the assignment. The buyer essentially steps into a position where the majority of the financial commitment has been fulfilled, with only 20% outstanding to the July 2027 handover. This significantly reduces the buyer’s remaining installment exposure relative to a unit purchased at launch with a full payment plan ahead.
The sea view in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 faces the Arabian Gulf — the open water that Bluewaters Island sits on. A middle-floor position delivers an elevated panorama that is above obstructions while maintaining a human-scale connection to the waterfront environment. The view encompasses the Arabian Gulf, the JBR beach and Walk, elements of the Palm Jumeirah, and the Dubai Marina skyline — one of the most complete and visually powerful residential panoramas in Dubai’s waterfront hierarchy.
Bluewaters Island is a man-made island created by Meraas in the Arabian Gulf, positioned between JBR and the Palm Jumeirah. Its total land area is fixed — no expansion is planned or possible. The island accommodates Ain Dubai (the world’s largest observation wheel), Caesar’s Palace Dubai, a curated retail and dining promenade, and a limited number of residential buildings. The finite nature of the island means the total residential supply is permanently capped — a structural scarcity that underpins long-term capital value across all Bluewaters Island properties.
Handover for this unit in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 is confirmed for July 2027 — approximately 14 months from the current date. This places the property firmly in the near-to-handover window with limited remaining construction exposure. The buyer acquires an asset with clear and near-term delivery certainty.
Yes. Bluewaters Island is a designated freehold area in Dubai, permitting property ownership by all nationalities worldwide — both UAE residents and non-residents. There are no nationality restrictions on purchasing in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1.
Based on the assignment price of AED 4,675,500: DLD transfer fee 4% (AED 187,020), DLD admin (approximately AED 580), agency commission 2% plus VAT (approximately AED 98,186). Total estimated all-in approximately AED 4,961,286. Meraas NOC and assignment processing fees also apply. Full cost breakdown available on request.
Bluewaters Island’s scarcity, global recognition through Ain Dubai, and waterfront lifestyle credentials consistently attract the highest-quality tenant profiles in Dubai — ultra-HNW individuals, senior international executives, and global tourists seeking short-term rental of a premium address. A sea view 2-bedroom in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 at AED 3,489 per sq ft — 10% below OP — creates immediate capital equity alongside a strong rental income profile. Comparable rental rates and yield data for Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 are available on request.

This 2-bedroom sea view apartment in Bluewaters Bay Tower 1 spans 1,340 sq ft (124 sqm) on a middle floor. Meraas's design for Bluewaters Bay prioritises the sea view as the primary architectural asset — the primary living and dining space and the master bedroom are oriented to maximise the Arabian Gulf panorama, with the balcony or terrace positioned to deliver the open water view as a direct extension of the living areas. The 1,340 sq ft (124 sqm) footprint delivers: a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and balcony or sea view terrace access, a second bedroom with bathroom access, an open-plan living and dining area of generous scale, a fully fitted kitchen, and the sea-facing balcony or terrace. The middle floor position on Tower 1 provides an elevated perspective over the Arabian Gulf — above any obstructions from the island's own landscaping — while maintaining the scale connection to the waterfront environment that upper floors sometimes sacrifice in favour of altitude. The view encompasses the open Gulf waters, elements of the JBR waterfront, and potentially the Palm Jumeirah depending on the unit's specific orientation. Full floor plan with room-by-room dimensions, balcony area, bathroom layout, kitchen configuration, and exact floor and orientation details for this specific unit are available on request from our team or directly from Meraas.
