Alandalus is a sub-community within Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai. Its name and architectural language draw on the historic Andalucian tradition: water channels, colonnades, courtyards and planted gardens inform the masterplan and public realm. The development combines low- and mid-rise apartment blocks with a collection of townhouses set around pedestrian-friendly streets and landscaped plazas, framed by views across the golf courses and lakes.
Alandalus is positioned inside Jumeirah Golf Estates and forms part of a broader residential and leisure complex. The original concept comprised two distinct housing products: a cluster of townhouses and a series of apartment blocks. The scheme describes 95 two- and three-bedroom townhouses organised in a gated enclave with private terraces and optional plunge pools and patios. Apartment accommodation is presented across two low-rise and six mid-rise blocks, totalling 715 units ranging from one- to four-bedroom layouts. Many apartments and townhouses are designed with large covered terraces and orientation intended to take advantage of prevailing breezes and views over the golf course and the community’s five lakes.
Alandalus is located approximately 4,488 metres from the Dubai Metro Red Line station identified as R73; this distance is not described as pedestrian-friendly for daily commuting. Key road distances from Alandalus to principal Dubai destinations are:
Earlier materials published for the development gave typical drive-time examples from Alandalus to several city destinations: roughly 28 minutes to Dubai Mall, 22 minutes to Palm Jumeirah, 24 minutes to Burj Al Arab and 25 minutes to The Walk JBR. The same source referenced drive times to airports: about 33 minutes to DXB and about 36 minutes to Al Maktoum International Airport.
Architecture and landscaping are explicitly inspired by Andalucian models: the Great Mosque of Cordoba informed elements of colonnades and material choices, while the Alhambra and its Generalife gardens informed water features, reflecting pools and planted compositions. The public realm emphasises water, abundant foliage and specimen olive and citrus trees to cultivate a Mediterranean character.
Alandalus was planned with a range of community amenities linked to Jumeirah Golf Estates. Published amenity descriptions include two golf courses, approximately six hectares of landscaping, jogging and cycling tracks, a gym, a swimming pool, tennis courts and two clubhouses. Project documentation also set out a delivery sequence for towers in the original masterplan: Towers A and B were completed in May 2019; Tower C was scheduled for handover in Q4 2019; and Towers D, E, F and G were scheduled for handover in Q2 2020. These milestones were part of the original schedule and appear in the development materials.

Alandalus is shaped for residents seeking a landscaped, golf-oriented community with a strong design concept drawn from southern Spain. Practical resident profiles include:

The figures below come from registered Dubai Land Department transactions, not from listings. We show the median rather than the mean, so that one-off penthouses do not distort it.
The yearly figure compares the last 12 months with the 12 before them. Calendar years would not work here: the current one is unfinished, so the comparison would understate the change.
From 2022 to 2025 — +59% on the price per square metre across 2 buildings that traded in both years.
For comparison: the median across the whole district moved +72%. The gap between the two figures is not existing homes appreciating — it is newer, more expensive buildings entering the market. Returns on a purchase follow the first figure.
Top to bottom: purchase price per m², year, annual rent per m², gross yield. Showing the last 11 years, from 2016.
* 2026 is still in progress, so its bar covers part of the year and is not directly comparable with the ones before it. The growth figure below uses completed years only.
All figures are medians rather than means: in thin years the mean swings with the mix of units and shows movement the market never had. The yield is gross — service charges are not published in the register, so they cannot be deducted honestly.
| Building | Deals | Price per m² |
|---|---|---|
| Al Andalus Building B | 44 | 13 580 |
| Al Andalus Building A | 19 | 12 631 |
