Project general facts
The Bay Residences is on the prestigious Hayat Island of the Mina Al Arab, with the best-in-class amenities the region has to offer, superb beach views, and the breathtaking expanse of the Arabian Gulf. The highlight of the Bay Residences, its position on Hayat Island and the Arabian Gulf, are the terraces, which provide the possibility to fully take in the stunning beauty of the ocean, the beaches and to enjoy a life where contemplating the vast and immense horizon is an amazing daily experience.
As all development on Hayat Island, the Bay Residences is both ultra- modern and in sync with its natural surroundings. Its organic design exemplifies both the latest architectural trends and the island’s form, expressing the fluidity of the ocean, the sway of the winds, mimicking the color of Ras Al Khaimah’s pearly beaches.
Finishing and materials
The Bay Residence apartments have been created to accommodate all the necessities needed for ultra-comfortable and plush living, and to render them truly exceptional, through nature-inspired materials, smooth surfaces, clear spaces, open arrangements, details inspired by culture and tradition, all further enhanced with stunning views of the ocean and the lagoon.

Why Dubai off-plan
The macro case for buying off-plan in Dubai
These six pillars apply to every project on this site — not just this one. If you're new to the UAE market, they're the context you need before evaluating the specific unit above.
0% interest, ever
Off-plan payment plans are interest-free, end to end. Every instalment is at face value — no APR, no compounding, no balloon hidden in the back. Buyers from interest-bearing markets routinely underestimate how much this saves over a 3–5 year hold.
No income or capital-gains tax on property
Dubai charges no annual property tax, no income tax on rental yield, and no capital-gains tax on resale. The DLD 4% transfer fee is a one-time cost at registration — after that, your returns are yours.
20% usually opens the unit
Most off-plan plans book with a ~20% reservation deposit. You're under contract with the developer immediately, with the rest spread across construction milestones. The deposit is what unlocks the buy-side, not the full unit price.
Post-handover plans extend the runway
Many projects offer 2–4 years of post-handover instalments — meaning a chunk of the price gets paid AFTER you take keys. Once the unit is rented, that income can help cover the post-handover payments — rarely the full instalment, but enough to make the cash-flow comfortable rather than tight.
Golden Visa from AED 2M
A property purchase of AED 2M+ qualifies the buyer (and family) for the UAE Golden Visa — a 10-year renewable residency. The visa is the headline benefit; for many international buyers it's the actual reason to buy in Dubai.
Freehold ownership for foreigners
Across the 80+ freehold zones (Dubai Marina, Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, JVC, Dubai Hills, and the rest), foreigners own 100% of the asset and the land. There's no Emirati partner requirement, no lease structure — title deed in your name.
