About the area

Hayat Dubai South is a master-planned residential subcommunity within Dubai South (Dubai World Central). Positioned in the Golf District, the development is conceived as a wellness-oriented town of townhouses, green spaces and community facilities, and is being delivered in multiple phases by Dubai South Properties.

What this place is and where it sits

Hayat occupies roughly 10 million square feet inside Dubai South’s Golf District. The concept emphasises walkable neighbourhoods, landscaped parks and shared amenities clustered around low-rise residential buildings. The site coordinates are 24.858288 N, 55.112568 E, locating Hayat towards the western side of the greater Dubai South zone, with direct road access to Emirates Road and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road.

Transport and key distances

Hayat is oriented primarily for car access. The nearest Dubai Metro reference point is on the Red Line (station code R76), located about 12,166 metres from the community; this distance is not pedestrian-friendly. Road links are a primary advantage — the masterplan provides direct access to Emirates Road and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, which serve longer commutes across the city.

  • Burj Khalifa / Downtown Dubai — 41.1 km
  • The Dubai Mall — 41.3 km

Masterplan and development status

Hayat is described in developer material as a fully integrated, wellness-oriented master-planned community of nearly 2,500 residential units, delivered across multiple phases. The programme includes community parks with walking trails, family play zones and outdoor recreation areas, along with designated relaxation and communal gathering zones. Each cluster of townhouses is planned to include shared pools and landscaped gardens.

Key construction and programme details published by the developer and related sources include:

  • The development footprint is approximately 10 million square feet.
  • Townhouse configurations are planned in three-, four- and five-bedroom layouts with open-plan interiors and private gardens.
  • A construction contract worth AED 2 billion was awarded to Mohammed Abdulmohsin Al Kharafi & Sons LLC covering several phases of the development.
  • Construction work was scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2026, with initial phases expected to reach completion by 2028; the first phase completion was specifically noted as Q2 2028.
  • Reports indicate the first two phases were sold out shortly after launch, generating over AED 1 billion in sales.

Images originally published for Hayat show initial concept designs and the developer notes that schemes can evolve during delivery; the community will therefore be implemented in stages and design details may be adjusted as construction progresses.

Actual transaction prices in Hayat Dubai South, since 2025

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 yield is calculated across the whole district rather than the buildings on this page: there are still too few rental contracts for them, as the buildings are under construction or only recently handed over. Both rent and price in this ratio are district figures for the same 12 months.
