About Club Place and the Palace Hotels Brand

Club Place is Emaar Properties’ Palace Hotels & Resorts branded residential offering at Dubai Hills Estate — a multi-building development of 473 apartments across two towers (Tower A and Tower B), offering 1, 2, and 3-bedroom residences designed to the specifications and aesthetic standards of Emaar’s Palace Hotels hospitality brand. The Palace Hotels brand — which operates The Palace Downtown, Palace Creek Harbour, and multiple flagship hotels across the UAE — brings its signature design language, material quality, and service sensibility into the residential product at Club Place. For buyers, this translates into a building finish and specification that is meaningfully above standard Emaar residential product, reflecting the brand’s prestige positioning.

Club Place overlooks Dubai Hills’ 18-hole championship golf course — the central green infrastructure that anchors the entire Dubai Hills Estate master plan — from its position within the estate’s most connected precinct. The development sold out at launch, with 1BR units priced from AED 1,449,000 in initial tranches and rising to AED 1,638,000 in subsequent allocations. The DLD has recorded transactions at AED 2,099–2,297/sqft for Club Place — confirming the market has already moved beyond original developer pricing. The distress asking price of AED 1,939/sqft is structurally below all three benchmarks: the seller’s OP, the DLD transaction average, and the current secondary market rate.

Why This Club Palace (Club Place) 1BR at AED 1,450,000 Is a Compelling Buy

• AED 188,000 (11.5%) below Emaar’s original developer price: The seller paid AED 1,638,000; the buyer acquires the same unit for AED 1,450,000 — a genuine below-OP transaction on a sold-out Emaar project.
• AED 1,939/sqft vs DLD transaction range of AED 2,099–2,297/sqft: This unit is priced AED ~261/sqft below the Club Place DLD-recorded market average — a structural discount that is directly attributable to seller urgency.
• Palace Hotels brand premium: Club Place is Emaar’s Palace Hotels residential product — a specification tier above standard Emaar developments in the same community. The brand drives rental premium, tenant quality, and resale liquidity.
• Golf course view — Dubai Hills’ most premium outlook: Units facing Dubai Hills’ 18-hole golf course achieve the highest rents and occupancy within the community. At AED 1,450,000 — below any current comparable on the secondary market — this is premium-view product at distress pricing.
• Dubai Hills Estate — Emaar’s flagship community: Dubai Hills Estate consistently ranks among Dubai’s top 5 communities for transaction volume, price growth, and rental demand. King’s College Hospital, GEMS Wellington, Dubai Hills Mall, and the golf course create a self-sufficient premium family lifestyle that generates structurally strong rental demand.
• Sold-out project — secondary market is the only entry: Emaar’s Club Place sold out at launch. This listing represents one of the very few below-OP secondary market units available in the project — a window that closes as the community matures toward Q4 2028 handover.
• Emaar delivery certainty: Emaar is Dubai’s largest and most reliably delivering developer. Q4 2028 is a confirmed Emaar schedule for a project with active construction underway.
