Seven hundred metres of white sandy beach, five minutes from Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, and 15 minutes from Downtown Dubai. Emaar Cedar Creek Beach is a 272-apartment development across four mid-rise towers at Creek Beach within Dubai Creek Harbour, offering 1, 2, and 3-bedroom homes from AED 1.65 million, with a milestone-linked 10/80/10 payment plan and Q3 2026 handover. For buyers who want an Emaar waterfront address at a price that makes investment sense, this is where the numbers stack up.
Emaar Cedar Creek Beach is a low-to-mid-rise residential development across four towers at Creek Beach the waterfront sub-community within Dubai Creek Harbour. The project adds 272 apartments to one of Dubai's most strategically positioned master communities: a 6 square kilometre mixed-use district developed entirely by Emaar Properties, adjacent to Ras Al Khor Road and 15 minutes from Downtown Dubai. Emaar Properties, founded in 1997, is the developer behind Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and the world's largest mall currently under development at Creek Island. Cedar is the latest cluster in the Creek Beach precinct, joining a completed promenade, beach, retail, and marina infrastructure that makes the lifestyle offer tangible from day one of move-in.
Cedar spans four 9-storey buildings arranged around a central plaza a configuration that keeps density low and gives every unit park or courtyard-facing aspects rather than building-to-building views. The 272 apartments cover 1, 2, and 3-bedroom configurations from 613 to 1,691 sq.ft, all with floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies facing community green space. Layouts are open-plan on the living level, with kitchens fully fitted and bedrooms designed for maximum cross-ventilation. All units include private parking. The four-building arrangement means amenities and the central plaza are within a 2-minute walk for every resident in the development.
Dubai Creek Harbour is a 6 square kilometre master community planned for 22,000+ residential units, with Creek Beach as its lifestyle centrepiece. The 700-metre white sand beach is already operational, as is the marina with its yacht club, the pedestrian promenade with cafes and restaurants, a large central park, and the Creek Island shopping plaza. Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary a protected flamingo habitat sits 5 minutes away and provides a natural green buffer that no development can remove. The future Dubai Creek Tower, planned as the world's tallest structure, will anchor the district's skyline. Cedar residents move into a community that is already functioning, not one waiting for infrastructure to catch up.
Dubai Creek Harbour 1-bedroom apartments yield an average of 6.4% gross, with minimum annual rental returns around AED 70,000 one of the stronger waterfront yield profiles in Dubai at this price point. Entry from AED 1.65 million sits below the AED 2 million Golden Visa threshold for 1-bedroom configurations, while 3-bedroom units at AED 3 million+ exceed the threshold and qualify buyers for the UAE's 10-year Golden Visa. There is 0% capital gains tax and 0% income tax on rental returns in the UAE. Emaar escrow-protects all off-plan payments. As the Creek Tower approaches completion and the wider DCH master plan fills in, the appreciation case for this district strengthens with each infrastructure milestone.
Emaar Cedar Creek Beach offers 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments (613-1,691 sq.ft) across four mid-rise towers arranged around a central landscaped plaza all with open-plan layouts, private balconies, and community or park views.



Cedar delivers 15 amenities across a four-building cluster centred on a communal plaza sized for 272 units, not a resort-scale tower. The pool deck, gym, and children's facilities are resident-exclusive. Beyond Cedar's private amenity layer, Dubai Creek Harbour's community infrastructure is already operational: a 700-metre sandy beach, a marina yacht club, a pedestrian promenade with cafes and dining, a large central park, and co-working spaces. Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary sits 5 minutes away, adding a unique natural corridor that most waterfront communities in Dubai cannot claim.
Dubai Creek Harbour occupies a 6 square kilometre plot along Ras Al Khor Road one of Dubai's primary east-west arteries positioned between Al Jaddaf and Ras Al Khor, 10 minutes from Dubai International Airport and 15 minutes from Downtown Dubai. The Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan designates the wider Creek waterfront as a primary urban growth corridor. Infrastructure already in place includes the Metro Blue Line extension, which will serve Creek Island, and the existing ferry terminal connecting Creek Harbour to other waterfront destinations. Investors here are buying into Dubai's designated 'new downtown' before prices reflect that status.
