5-Bedroom Indigo Ocean Waterfront Villa on Frond A, Palm Jebel Ali – At Original Price

Property Overview

This 5-bedroom Indigo Ocean villa on Frond A, Palm Jebel Ali, Dubai, is offered at AED 20,500,000, the same as the seller's original purchase price. It has 7,940 sq ft of built-up area on a 7,641 sq ft plot, and the agent describes it as waterfront. Palm Jebel Ali is an off-plan Nakheel project, so this is an off-plan resale at cost.

Why This Is Classed as Off-Plan Distress

The seller is offering this off-plan villa at exactly its original purchase price of AED 20,500,000, without adding a resale premium. Because Palm Jebel Ali is still under construction and the seller is exiting before completion at cost, DPF classifies it as an Off-Plan Distress resale. Dividing the price by 7,940 sq ft gives an asking rate of about AED 2,582 per sq ft of built-up area.

This is not a below-original-price sale; the asking price equals the original price. The buyer would also pay a new DLD transfer fee of about AED 820,000 at 4% of the price, plus agency and trustee fees. The benchmark is the seller's original price as supplied in the agent brief received on 15 October 2026, not a DLD transaction record or independent valuation.

About the Project, Developer and Community

Palm Jebel Ali is Nakheel's palm-shaped island off the Jebel Ali coast, relaunched with a first phase of villas on its fronds. Frond A villas went on sale in January 2025 in 5-, 6- and 7-bedroom designs, each with a named layout; published information lists Indigo Ocean as one of the 5-bedroom designs, with 5-bedroom villas ranging from roughly 7,882 to 8,434 sq ft.

Listed amenities across the project include a crystal lagoon, private beachfront, waterfalls, a landscaped boulevard, poolside leisure decks, a gym, a cinema lounge, a children's play area, retail and beachfront dining. Final amenity delivery should be confirmed against Nakheel's handover documentation.

Layout, Plot and Position

The agent confirms a 5-bedroom Indigo Ocean villa with 7,940 sq ft of built-up area on a 7,641 sq ft plot in a waterfront position on Frond A. The plot number, exact orientation, bathroom count and parking for this unit were not supplied in the brief. Request the unit's floor plans, plot plan and specification sheet to confirm the layout and water frontage.

Payment Plan and Handover

The brief does not give the amount paid or this villa's handover date. Published project information for Frond A shows a 20/60/20 payment plan, with 20% due on handover, and an expected completion around Q1 2028. Buyers should obtain the SPA, Oqood and Nakheel statement of account to confirm the amount paid, the outstanding balance and the current handover date, and check Nakheel's NOC and resale conditions.

Location and Connectivity

Palm Jebel Ali lies off the coast near Jebel Ali, south-west of Dubai Marina, with access from Sheikh Zayed Road. DPF has not stated travel times because they were not verified for this listing.
