Zephyra at Dubai Islands — Premium Boutique Residences with Full-Service Lifestyle

Zephyra is a new premium residential project by Arsenal East, located in the central district of Dubai Islands. The development offers 102 units across two low-rise buildings, featuring a curated mix of apartments, duplexes, and penthouses. It is designed for those who value direct beach access, large private outdoor areas, and full hotel-style services within a limited private community.

Architecture Inspired by the Coastline

Zephyra is a low-rise residential concept defined by flowing lines, stepped terraces, and soft contours, echoing the rhythm of the surrounding seascape. The two sculptural buildings are positioned at the heart of the island, blending into the natural topography while opening panoramic views in multiple directions.

Limited Collection of Residences

The project includes a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, duplexes, and penthouses. All layouts are built around generous internal space, extended outdoor areas, and carefully controlled visual privacy. Select units feature rooftop pools, private saunas, and garden terraces.

Interior Aesthetic and Curated Details

All residences at Zephyra are delivered with premium interior design, built-in furnishings, and high-end appliances. One- and two-bedroom apartments come fully furnished — including textiles, tableware, lighting, and décor — ready for immediate occupancy or rental. Duplexes and penthouses feature bespoke layouts with designer interiors, private pools, and expansive terraces.

Lifestyle Amenities and Shared Spaces

Residents have access to a full rooftop leisure deck with an infinity pool, a 300+ sqm gym, yoga and meditation zones, a children’s play area, and landscaped gardens throughout the development. The central courtyard is designed as a calm social space, combining greenery, seating areas, and ambient lighting to create a cohesive living environment.

Full-Service Residential Concept

Zephyra offers a hotel-style living experience with optional turn-key packages and in-house services. These include airport transfers, housekeeping, Michelin-level dining access, and a dedicated holiday home rental program with professional management — allowing residents to live or invest with complete convenience.

Location and Connectivity

Located in the centre of Dubai Islands, Zephyra combines a coastal setting with fast access to the city’s main hubs. The project is surrounded by parks, marinas, waterfront promenades, and public beaches, while international schools and hospitals are reachable within 6 to 20 minutes. The upcoming Blue Flag-certified coastline and extensive leisure infrastructure make this one of the city’s most promising new residential districts.

Investment Appeal of Zephyra at Dubai Islands

Zephyra appeals to investors through a combination of high projected rental yields, anticipated capital appreciation during the construction phase, and eligibility for long-term UAE residency. Its beachfront location, full-service management model, and limited supply on Dubai Islands make it a strong asset for both income and value growth.

High Rental Income Potential

Managed holiday home services allow owners to achieve projected rental yields of up to 8% per annum, supported by full furnishing, beach access, and year-round tourist demand.

Value Growth During Construction

Estimated property appreciation of up to 22% is expected by handover, based on Dubai Islands' strategic masterplan, early entry pricing, and growing infrastructure value.

UAE Residency Visa Eligibility

Buyers benefit from simplified access to 2- and 10-year UAE residency visas, depending on property value — including family sponsorship and renewal options.

Island A – Central Location Within Dubai Islands

Zephyra Residences is located on Island A, also known as Central Island — the main entry point and most developed hub within the Dubai Islands master plan. As the primary access point from the mainland, Island A connects all other islands (B, C, D) and serves as the core of the new coastal city.

Island A is planned as a mixed-use urban centre, combining luxury beachfront residences, branded hotels, a full-scale mall, marina districts, and cultural destinations. Residents of Zephyra benefit from direct access to public beaches, green parks, retail promenades, marinas, and entertainment venues — all within walkable distance.

Districts on Island A include:

The Mall – a large mixed-use core for shopping and leisure
Beachfront Hotel & Residential Zone – with branded developments
Marina Hotel District – featuring luxury marina-facing homes
Destination Art & Culture District – planned for specialty retail and cultural venues

This positioning gives Zephyra a unique long-term advantage in terms of infrastructure, accessibility, and lifestyle — while offering direct beach access within Dubai’s most connected island zone.
