Meraas Dubai — projects, payment plans & properties for sale

Destination developer behind Bluewaters and City Walk

Meraas, part of Dubai Holding, creates destinations rather than housing estates: Bluewaters Island, City Walk, La Mer, and Port de La Mer. Its residential stock sits inside places people already visit, which supports both short-term rental performance and resale demand.

Meraas — frequently asked questions

Is Meraas a government developer?

Meraas sits under Dubai Holding, the investment vehicle of Dubai's ruler, which gives it the same institutional backing profile investors associate with Nakheel and Dubai Properties.

Does a Meraas purchase qualify for the UAE Golden Visa?

A property purchase of AED 2 million or more (about USD 545,000) qualifies the owner for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, including off-plan purchases with an approved developer. Many Meraas units sit at or above that threshold — ask Ilona which current releases clear it on your budget.

Can US citizens buy Meraas property in Dubai?

Yes. Dubai freehold ownership is open to all nationalities, including US citizens, with no residency requirement. You can reserve a Meraas unit remotely — passport copy, signed reservation form, and an international transfer are usually all that is needed. KOROL GROUP handles the paperwork and Dubai Land Department registration on your behalf.
