1. Most Expensive Homes in Dubai 2026: The Record Sales
The most expensive homes in Dubai are now branded apartments and off-plan villas on the Jumeirah coast, with the top sales ranging from AED 210 million to AED 550 million. Apartments, not villas, hold 4 of the 5 highest prices on this list, which shows how far buyer taste has moved toward serviced sky homes with hotel brands attached.
Bugatti Residences Penthouse, Business Bay
The citywide record for a single home belongs to a penthouse at Bugatti Residences by Binghatti, which sold for AED 550 million in late 2025. At AED 11,650 per sq ft it set the highest price per square foot ever recorded in Business Bay, and the building has car lifts that bring vehicles up to the homes. In 2026, a 5 bedroom unit in the same project sold for a further AED 200 million.

7 Bedroom Villa at La Mer, Jumeirah 1
The priciest villa sold in the first 8 months of 2026 is a 7 bedroom off-plan home at La Mer, bought for AED 350 million.
