About

Project general facts

Portside Square is Ellington’s architectural masterpiece, redefining the art of waterfront living in Dubai. Rising within the historic Mina Rashid district, the development reflects the city’s maritime spirit through fluid lines and soft contours inspired by the motion of wind and water. Comprising three sculptural towers — Portside Residences I, II, and III — the project captures the essence of design in motion, with façades that shimmer in natural light and create a harmonious dialogue between sea, sky, and structure. It stands as a contemporary landmark where elegance meets timeless coastal charm.

Each residence at Portside Square is crafted for life in perfect flow. The interiors draw inspiration from the meeting of sea and shore, balancing texture and tone to create spaces of calm sophistication. Natural materials, layered finishes, and gentle color palettes form an atmosphere of modern refinement. Expansive windows frame panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf, the marina, and Downtown Dubai, while open layouts enhance light and connection, allowing every home to feel both tranquil and alive.

Portside Square offers an exceptional collection of curated amenities designed for leisure, wellness, and community. Residents can enjoy leisure and lap pools, landscaped decks, a fitness pavilion, spa and sauna zones, yoga areas, co-working pods, cinema and games lounges, a kids’ club, and even a clubhouse with dining and entertainment spaces. Outdoor jogging paths, garden courtyards, and marina-view lounges complete this waterfront lifestyle experience — where every day flows with beauty, balance, and belonging.

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.
