Emaar Properties · The Oasis By Emaar
Palace Villas – Ostra is an exclusive collection of 4- to 6-bedroom waterfront villas within The Oasis, Emaar's master-planned residential community in Dubai. The project comprises 526 villas, each built to a basement-plus-ground-plus-two-floor configuration, positioned along quiet water channels framed by landscaped greenery. The Palace Hotels and Resorts brand underpins the residential concept, translating the hospitality group's service standards and design philosophy into a private villa ownership format.
Each residence is oriented to maximise natural light and water views, with sleek glass facades that mirror the surrounding waterways and natural stone finishes that reference the landscape. Interiors follow a calm, material-led aesthetic — rare stone surfaces, soft tonal palettes, and considered textures — positioning these homes as long-term primary or trophy residences rather than typical investment units.
The architectural approach at Palace Villas – Ostra draws directly from the surrounding water landscape. Glass curtain walls reflect the movement of light across the lagoon throughout the day, while natural stone cladding grounds the structures visually within their greenery-rich setting. The design avoids ornamental excess in favour of proportion and materiality — a restrained vocabulary that signals quality without relying on decorative gestures.
Interior spaces are configured around the principle of flow between indoor and outdoor zones, with expansive glazing and open-plan ground floors connecting living areas to private gardens and waterfront terraces. Finish selections combine rare materials with practical luxury — surfaces chosen for tactility and longevity as much as visual impact.
Palace Villas – Ostra sits within The Oasis master community, which includes a resort-styled clubhouse, an oasis lagoon, a retail centre, a water stream park, a spring garden, playgrounds, multi-sports courts, and a series of pocket parks distributed across the community. The clubhouse functions as the social anchor, designed at resort scale with facilities that support both active and leisure use.
The water stream park and spring garden components reflect a deliberate landscaping strategy that integrates natural water features and planting into the pedestrian experience throughout the community. Residents have direct waterfront access from their properties, reducing the functional distance between private living and shared recreational infrastructure.
Emaar Properties recorded AED 35.5 billion in revenue and AED 17.5 billion in net profit for FY 2024, with a market capitalisation of AED 114 billion. The developer has delivered over 118,400 residential units globally and currently has 50,500 units under development across more than 10 markets. This scale provides meaningful assurance on construction delivery timelines and post-handover asset liquidity.
The Oasis positions itself in the ultra-luxury villa segment, a sub-market that has recorded sustained price appreciation in Dubai over the 2022–2025 cycle driven by constrained supply of waterfront villa plots within established master communities. Palace-branded residences add a hospitality operator association that has historically supported premium pricing in comparable projects across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
The Oasis is accessible via Al Khail Road and Emirates Road, placing it approximately 15 minutes from Dubai Hills Mall, 15 minutes from Dubai Marina, 20 minutes from Al Maktoum International Airport, and 25 minutes from Downtown Dubai. The location sits within the broader southwestern Dubai corridor, adjacent to Arabian Ranches and near Dubai Investment Park.
The immediate area is characterised by low-density villa communities including Arabian Ranches I, II, and III, Emirates Living, and Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. The Dubai Hills Estate mall and medical infrastructure are within a short drive. The future Blue Line metro expansion, as shown in the community master plan, is slated to improve public transit connectivity to this corridor over the medium term.
