About the area

Madinat Jumeirah Living is a freehold residential subcommunity in Umm Suqeim 3, arranged as a low-rise, pedestrian-centric neighbourhood that mirrors the look and feel of the adjacent Madinat Jumeirah Resort. The master development combines residential clusters, landscaped waterways and shaded walkways with a range of community facilities and a direct connection to the resort environment.

What this place is and where it is located

Madinat Jumeirah Living occupies a seafront position opposite the Burj Al Arab and is set within Umm Suqeim 3. The development was conceived as a 54-building masterplan forming an environmentally considerate district with wind towers, wadis and kilometres of landscaped gardens and waterways. The scheme is pedestrian-centric, with a central promenade and interconnected paths creating quiet open spaces between residential clusters.

Key elements of the neighbourhood include a private beach, communal parks and play areas, kilometres of shaded walkways, jogging and cycling paths, and a direct air-conditioned footbridge to Madinat Jumeirah Resort. Resident amenities include a community centre, retail, concierge services, fitness centres and swimming pools, ample basement parking, designated visitor parking and day-care facilities.

The project launched in 2018, with construction beginning in 2019 and development progressing in phases. In October 2018, Lamtara was added to the initial two residential clusters. It comprises freehold apartments with one to four bedrooms and was scheduled for handover in June 2021.

Actual transaction prices in Madinat Jumeirah Living, 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 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. The median across the whole district moved +4% over the same year — that gap reflects which buildings came to market, not existing homes changing in price.

How the price per square metre changed by year

From 2022 to 2025 — +24% on the price per square metre across 17 buildings that traded in both years.

* 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.
