About The Acres

Villa Typologies & Design

The first release at The Acres comprises 3, 4 and 5-bedroom standalone villas across six typologies (Types A through F). Each home is designed around outdoor rooms and rear gardens that extend the living space beyond the walls of the house, with floor-to-ceiling windows and double-height living areas bringing natural light and greenery indoors.

The 3-bedroom villa (Type A) includes a side courtyard, a first-floor master bedroom overlooking the pool and park, plus a family area and shaded terrace on the second floor. The 4-bedroom villa (Type C) is defined by a stone-wall facade, an elevated-view master bedroom and a top-floor multi-purpose room opening to a terrace. The 5-bedroom villa (Type E/F) uses selective street-facing openings for privacy paired with full-length courtyard windows, centred on a double-height living area that blurs indoor and outdoor boundaries.

Community Master Plan

The Acres is organised into seven themed gardens, the Arrival Garden, Village Garden, Lagoon Garden, Nature Garden, Lost Garden, Perfume Garden and Edible Garden, each built around a central park and connected by the Halo Loop Park pathway network. Swimmable lagoons sit at the heart of the community, framed by a lagoon clubhouse, floating decks and jogging tracks.

The DLD project record lists a total of 642 villas across the phase, split between G+1 (233 units) and G+2 (409 units) configurations, with 12 frozen villas/plots noted separately. Community facilities include a primary school, kindergarten, mosque, retail promenade, clubhouse and healthcare provision, distributed across the garden clusters rather than centralised in a single podium.

Sustainability Credentials

The Acres has been designed to meet the LEED v4.1 Cities and Communities: Plan and Design certification, reflecting sustainable planning at the master-community level rather than a single-building rating. Green space is distributed throughout via the garden network rather than concentrated in isolated parks, with wetland areas and natural ponds forming part of the Nature Garden's ecological features.

Developer Track Record

The Acres is developed by Meraas, the Dubai-based master developer behind Port de La Mer, City Walk Residences, Bluewaters Residences, Nikki Beach Residences, BVLGARI Residences and Cherrywoods. Meraas's portfolio spans waterfront, urban and suburban locations across Dubai, with a focus on large-scale community masterplanning alongside individual residential launches.

Location

Dubailand Connectivity

The Acres sits within the wider Dubailand area, with direct access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street and Emirates Road. This positions the community within a well-established network of roads linking it to other parts of the city without relying on a single arterial route.

Global Village is a 10-minute drive away, while the Dubai Polo and Equestrian Club and the Hamdan Sports Complex are both roughly 5 minutes from the community, placing The Acres close to established leisure destinations in the surrounding Dubailand belt.
