About Urbana III

Urbana III Townhouse Concept & Layout

Urbana III comprises 372 residential units spread across 55 low-rise buildings, built as combined plexes of stacked townhomes on ground and first floor levels. The project was delivered in two configurations, four-unit and eight-unit blocks, giving the community a consistent low-density character rather than the tower-dominated skyline typical of central Dubai.

Construction used a concrete structural frame with standard internal and external finishes, completed on schedule with the project reaching 100% completion by May 2020. The stacked-house format allows each unit a degree of separation and private access typical of townhouse living, while keeping density efficient across the 55-building layout.

Urbana III in Dubai Developer Track Record

Urbana III was developed by Emaar Properties, the group behind Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina and Dubai Hills Estate. Since 1997 the developer has built out master-planned communities across residential, hospitality, retail and leisure segments, with a land bank that at the time of this project's launch exceeded 190 million square metres and a delivery record of over 40,000 homes.

Emaar's role in Urbana III reflects its broader strategy for Dubai South, where it applied the same master-planning approach used in its flagship communities, layering schools, retail centres and healthcare facilities around residential blocks rather than treating housing as a standalone product.

Community Master Plan

Urbana III sits within Emaar South, a mixed-use district built around an 18-hole championship golf course spanning roughly 200 acres. The wider master plan combines tiered townhomes, standalone villas and apartments, with many units oriented toward golf course views and connected by shaded walkways linking pools, parks and community centres.

The district also includes business hotels, a resort hotel, nurseries and schools covering toddler to K-12 education, plus modern clinics and daycare facilities distributed across the community rather than centralised in one location.

Investment Case

As a completed, fully handed-over project within Dubai South, Urbana III offers a ready asset rather than an off-plan commitment, appealing to buyers seeking immediate occupancy or rental income without construction risk. Its position within one of Dubai's designated growth corridors, anchored by Al Maktoum International Airport and the Expo 2020 site, supports long-term community demand tied to logistics, aviation and business activity in the surrounding zone.

Location

Connectivity & Access

Emaar South sits at the crossroads of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, a short drive from Al Maktoum International Airport and near the Expo 2020 site. The E11 and E311 highways connect the district to Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina and Dubai Hills Estate, with a fully integrated transport system that includes planned Dubai Metro links.

Approximate drive times cited in the developer's own materials place Dubai Parks and Resorts around 15 minutes away, DIFC around 30 minutes, and Dubai International Airport around 35 minutes, positioning Urbana III within reach of both established business districts and the newer southern growth corridor.

Neighbourhood Amenities

The immediate community around Urbana III includes an 18-hole championship golf course, a health club, a clubhouse, community centres with retail and dining, mosques, nurseries and schools up to K-12, and clinics and daycare facilities distributed through the wider Dubai South development.
