ISLA Private Residences — Chaimaa Holding's First Dubai Islands Project
ISLA Private Residences is a 76-apartment, 15-storey development by Chaimaa Holding on Dubai Islands, offering one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. Ground-floor units are available as Private Pool & Terrace residences, each with a private plunge pool and open terraces. The building's 32 resident amenities are organised into four named collections: Verde for outdoor recreation, Azzurro for water and wellness, Fuoco for the rooftop, and Sole for indoor leisure, spa, and coworking facilities.
32 Amenities Across Four Named Collections
Verde covers outdoor recreation: a main pool, kids' pool, padel court, outdoor gym, jogging track, children's playground, and zen garden. Azzurro focuses on water and wellness: a lap pool, hot tub lounge, yoga deck, outdoor cinema, meditation room, and garden. Fuoco occupies the rooftop with five facilities. Sole provides 12 indoor amenities across leisure, spa, and work categories. Access to all 32 is reserved for ISLA's 76 residents.
Rooftop Infinity Pool, Bar, and Restaurant
The Fuoco Collection includes a rooftop infinity pool, a bar and lounge, a restaurant, a gym, and a mini-golf course. A rooftop restaurant and bar within a 76-apartment residential building is uncommon at this price point on Dubai Islands. For investors targeting short-term rental, an on-site rooftop restaurant and bar strengthens the listing against competing inventory that relies on external dining options.
Private Plunge Pools on Ground-Floor Terrace Units
Ground-floor units at ISLA are designated Private Pool & Terrace residences, available in one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. Each includes a private plunge pool and multiple open terraces. The outdoor area substantially exceeds a standard balcony, reaching its largest footprint in the three-bedroom configuration. Every apartment with a private pool at ISLA is a ground-floor terrace unit.
White Oak Floors, Blue Quartzite, and Brass Hardware
Living areas and bedrooms use engineered White Oak flooring. Kitchen countertops are Blue Quartzite stone. Bathrooms and wet areas use White Dolomia porcelain tile. Feature walls carry White Oak vertical slats. Doors are Bleached Oak. Hardware and fittings throughout are Brass Satin Polished. Walls are finished in Venetian Plaster. Frosted Fluted Glass is used for internal partitions.
Smart Home, ANPR Parking, and EV Charging
Smart home technology is installed across all 76 apartments as standard. The building has 102 parking spaces, accessed via ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition), providing keyless vehicle entry for residents. EV charging infrastructure is included in the building specification. With 102 spaces allocated across 76 apartments, the parking ratio exceeds one space per apartment, an above-average provision for Dubai Islands residential buildings at this scale.

50/50 Payment Plan for ISLA Private Residences, Dubai Islands
Investment Appeal of ISLA Private Residences at Dubai Islands
ISLA enters the Dubai Islands market at AED 2,200,000 on a 50/50 plan: a 76-apartment building 2 minutes from the beach, with a rooftop restaurant and bar as a concrete rental differentiator from day one.
Dubai Islands waterfront projects are generating gross rental yields of 6–8% per annum for one- and two-bedroom apartments. ISLA's 2-minute beach access, 76-apartment scale, and on-site rooftop restaurant and bar position it at the higher end of Dubai Islands rental inventory for buyers seeking yield from Q1 2028.
Off-plan properties on Dubai Islands have recorded consistent price appreciation from launch to handover as Nakheel's infrastructure investment advances; ISLA delivers in Q1 2028. Chaimaa Holding has completed four Dubai projects on schedule: Chaimaa Avenue 1 and 2 in JVC, Elegance by Chaimaa in JVC, and Symphony by Chaimaa in Majan Dubai.
All unit types at ISLA qualify for the UAE Golden Visa, with one-bedroom apartments starting from AED 2,200,000, above the AED 2,000,000 minimum threshold. The Golden Visa provides 10-year UAE residency with no sponsor required, extends to a buyer's spouse and dependants, and renews indefinitely upon retaining the property.
Location Advantages of ISLA Private Residences at Dubai Islands
Dubai Islands is a five-island archipelago developed by Nakheel off the Deira coastline in northern Dubai. The development forms part of the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, designating Dubai Islands as a priority tourism and residential destination. The master plan spans 20 km of coastline and encompasses hotels, residences, retail, marinas, and beach clubs across all five islands.
The island on which ISLA is positioned has direct road and bridge connections to the Dubai mainland. Dubai Islands Mall, 1 minute from the building, is among the first large-scale retail anchors operational on the islands, providing residents with daily convenience from day one of occupation. The beach is a 2-minute walk.
Dubai International Airport is 15 minutes from ISLA by car, a faster connection than from most established Dubai neighbourhoods. The Al Ittihad Road provides a direct route to Deira and the Gold Souk, with onward access to Downtown Dubai in 20 minutes and Dubai Marina in approximately 30–35 minutes.
The long-term value case for Dubai Islands rests on two factors: the scale of Nakheel's infrastructure pipeline and the limited availability of waterfront land. As hotels, marinas, beach clubs, and further retail open over the coming years, established residential buildings will benefit from a rising amenity environment and growing tourist demand. Buyers entering now position ahead of full operational capacity.
