2-Bedroom, Full Arabian Gulf View, Floors 25–30 — ANWA Aria, Dubai Maritime City

This is a distress sub-sale on a 2-bedroom apartment with full Arabian Gulf sea views on floors 25 to 30 in ANWA Aria by Omniyat — the second phase of Omniyat’s landmark ANWA development in Dubai Maritime City. The seller purchased at the original developer price of AED 4,442,311. The distress asking price is AED 3,750,000: a real discount of AED 692,311 (15.6%) below the original developer price, and AED 750,000 below the current market asking price for comparable 2BR sea-view units in ANWA Aria of AED 4,500,000. At AED 2,266/sqft on a 1,655 sq ft apartment at this elevation and sea-view orientation, the buyer captures a structurally below-market entry into one of Dubai Maritime City’s most prestigious waterfront addresses. Q4 2027 handover. The 60/40 Omniyat plan is inherited by the buyer.

About ANWA Aria and Omniyat

ANWA Aria is the second phase of Omniyat’s ANWA development in Dubai Maritime City — a 37-storey high-rise offering studios, 1 and 2-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom duplexes, penthouses, and 3–4-bedroom podium townhouses. Omniyat, founded in 2005, is one of the UAE’s most prestigious luxury developers, responsible for ORLA Dorchester Collection at Palm Jumeirah, One at Palm Jumeirah (branded by Dorchester), and AVA at Palm Jumeirah. The brand is synonymous with architectural distinction, premium material specification, and ultra-luxury positioning — translating directly into a premium over comparable non-Omniyat buildings in the same location for both rental income and resale value.

ANWA Aria is positioned on the Dubai Maritime City peninsula — a strategic, still-developing waterfront zone between Port Rashid (a global cruise destination) and Dubai Dry Docks (the largest dry dock infrastructure in the Middle East). The peninsula’s restricted residential parcel allocation means that supply of apartments in DMC is deliberately constrained by master plan design — creating the structural scarcity that supports above-average capital appreciation and rental yield in the district. As of 2025, Dubai Maritime City is cited as delivering rental yields of 6–8.5%, making it among the top-performing new communities in Dubai for income-generating assets.

Community and Lifestyle — Dubai Maritime City

• Dubai Maritime City — Dubai’s last undeveloped coastal investment zone, now in active transformation to a premium residential and mixed-use district
• Mina Rashid (Emaar Beachfront marina precinct) — 5-minute walk from ANWA Aria
• Direct access to the DMC waterfront promenade and boardwalk
• Green Loop pathways connecting the peninsula’s parks and waterfront areas
• Floating yacht club access
• La Mer Beach — 10-minute drive
• Sheikh Rashid Road (D75) — direct peninsula access to Sheikh Zayed Road (E11)
• Port Rashid cruise terminal — walkable, the region’s premier cruise destination
• Dubai Gold Souk, Deira, and Al Seef Heritage waterfront — 15 minutes
• Medcare Hospital Al Safa — 10 minutes
• GEMS Wellington International School — 15 minutes
• Dubai Opera, Museum of the Future — 15 minutes

The View — Full Arabian Gulf Sea from Floors 25–30

The “full sea view” designation at floors 25–30 in ANWA Aria’s 37-storey tower means the apartment looks directly out over the open Arabian Gulf — not a partial sea view blocked by adjacent buildings, and not a “city and sea” mix. At this elevation, the entire Gulf horizon is the primary visual field: the water line, the blue expanse, and the Port Rashid maritime activity in the foreground. On clear days, the outline of the Abu Dhabi coastline is visible to the south. This full, unobstructed Gulf panorama from floors 25–30 is the most premium residential view orientation available within ANWA Aria and Dubai Maritime City broadly. It defines the unit’s rental positioning and its resale liquidity against lower-floor and city-facing equivalents. At AED 2,266/sqft — AED 453/sqft below the current market asking for equivalent units — this full-sea-view unit is priced as a below-market entry despite delivering a top-of-tower view experience.

Amenities at ANWA Aria

• Sea-facing infinity swimming pool — the defining visual and lifestyle amenity of the building
• Fully equipped gymnasium and fitness centre
• Yoga and meditation studio
• Podium roof deck with panoramic Arabian Gulf views
• Outdoor terraces and BBQ areas
• Children’s play area
• Retail outlets on the ground floor
• Direct access to the Dubai Maritime City waterfront promenade and park
• Covered parking per unit
• High-speed elevators with smart access
• 24-hour security and maintenance

Layout and Floor Plan

The 2-bedroom unit at 1,655 sq ft sits at the larger end of the ANWA Aria 2BR range (which extends from 1,353 to 2,435 sq ft). At 1,655 sq ft, this is a generously proportioned 2-bedroom layout — consistent with Omniyat’s specification for open-plan living areas, full-height panoramic windows, and a balcony that functions as a true outdoor living space rather than a gesture. The layout includes an open-plan living and dining area with direct balcony access to the full sea view, a kitchen, a laundry room, two bedrooms each with en-suite bathrooms, a powder room, and covered parking. The exact unit number and specific floor within 25–30 are available on request from DistressPropertyFinder.com, along with the detailed floor plan.

Payment Plan — The Dual Discount Explained

• Omniyat 60/40 Payment Plan: 15% booking, 45% during construction, 40% at Q4 2027 handover
• Original Developer Price: AED 4,442,311
• Distress Asking Price: AED 3,750,000
• Discount vs Developer OP: AED 692,311 (15.6%)
• Current Market Asking (comparable units): AED 4,500,000
• Discount vs Market: AED 750,000
• New Buyer DLD (4%): AED 150,000
• Trustee / Conveyancing: ~AED 4,200
• Buyer Agency (2%, if applicable): AED 75,000
• Transfer-Stage All-In: ~AED 3,979,200
• Remaining Omniyat Instalments: Confirmed from seller’s SPA within 24 hours

The distress discount operates on two levels. First, the buyer acquires the unit for AED 692,311 less than the seller paid Omniyat — a real below-OP transaction. Second, comparable 2BR sea-view units in ANWA Aria are currently listed on the secondary market at AED 4,500,000, meaning this asking price of AED 3,750,000 is also AED 750,000 below what a buyer would pay for an equivalent unit from a non-motivated seller. Both benchmarks independently confirm this is a genuine distress-priced opportunity. The buyer assumes the seller’s SPA with Omniyat — exact amounts paid and remaining schedule confirmed within 24 hours of enquiry.

Why This ANWA Aria 2BR at AED 3,750,000 Is the Best Entry Point Available

• AED 692,311 (15.6%) below the original Omniyat developer price: The seller paid AED 4,442,311 and is exiting at AED 3,750,000 — a documented, real below-OP transaction on a sold-out building.
• AED 750,000 below the current secondary market: Comparable 2BR sea-view units at ANWA Aria are listed at AED 4,500,000. At AED 3,750,000, this is the best price available for this specific unit type and view combination in the building today.
• AED 2,266/sqft vs market AED 2,719/sqft — a gap of AED 453/sqft: On 1,655 sqft, this gap represents approximately AED 749,715 of unrealised market value captured at transfer.
• Full sea view from floors 25–30 — the building’s premium view orientation: Full Gulf panorama from this elevation is the defining visual differentiator within ANWA Aria — it drives the highest rents and fastest occupancy in the building.
• Omniyat brand — Dubai’s most premium residential developer by specification: ORLA, One at Palm, AVA — Omniyat’s track record sets a standard that supports a measurable brand premium over non-Omniyat towers in the same location for rent and resale.
• Dubai Maritime City — Dubai’s last undeveloped coastal zone, restricted supply by masterplan: DMC deliberately limits residential parcels. With rental yields of 6–8.5% (2025 data) and a citywide apartment price rise of 20%+ in 12 months, early entry in a supply-constrained waterfront district is the structural opportunity the market supports.
• 15 minutes to Downtown, 20 minutes to DXB Airport: DMC is one of the most centrally located waterfront communities in Dubai — closer to the city’s main employment and entertainment hubs than Emaar Beachfront, Palm Jumeirah, or Dubai Creek Harbour.
