Creek Island has a single address that encompasses the entire waterfront. Emaar Creek Waters is a 52-storey tower on Creek Island, Dubai Creek Harbour, offering 1 to 4-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom townhouses, and 5-bedroom duplex penthouses with panoramic views of the Creek, the wildlife sanctuary, and the Dubai skyline. Developed by Emaar Properties, with a 10/80/10 payment plan and Q3 2027 handover, this is island living at a scale Dubai has not seen before.
Emaar Creek Waters is a 52-storey residential landmark on Creek Island the centrepiece of Dubai Creek Harbour, Emaar Properties' 6-square-kilometre waterfront master community along the historic Dubai Creek. The project delivers 1 to 4-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom townhouses, and 5-bedroom duplex penthouses across an estimated 450 units, setting a new standard for island living inside one of Dubai's most ambitious mixed-use districts. Emaar Properties, founded in 1997 and the developer behind the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Downtown Dubai, brings its full weight of execution behind Creek Waters a project with a DLD-registered value of AED 423 million.
Creek Waters offers a range from efficient to expansive: 1-bedroom apartments from 753 sq. ft., 2-bedroom apartments from 1,120 sq. ft., 3-bedroom apartments from 1,552 sq. ft., and 4-bedroom apartments up to 2,441 sq. ft. Townhouses run from 2,936 to 3,014 sq ft. Duplex penthouses on the upper floors reach 8,196 sq. ft. with private studies and panoramic waterfront views. Every residence features floor-to-ceiling windows framing Dubai Creek, open-plan layouts, and private balconies. Interior finishes are specified to Emaar's premium-tier warm tones, high-quality stone surfaces, and the kind of attention to light and volume that make a 753 sq. ft. one-bedroom feel significantly larger than its footprint.
Creek Island sits within a master community designed at a scale that few other Dubai districts match. The Creek Harbour plan encompasses over 6 square kilometres of land and water frontage, with a 96,000 sq.m retail district, a marina for up to 83 yachts, and a promenade linear park that runs directly adjacent to the Creek Waters building. That park integrates playgrounds, fitness centres, sculpture areas, multi-use sports courts, open lawns, and an amphitheatre all within walking distance. The wider community is home to four metro stations and a pedestrian bridge connecting the island, plus water taxis to Downtown Dubai. Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, one of Dubai's rare protected natural habitats and home to thousands of flamingos, borders the district to the south.
Dubai Creek Harbour recorded 4,225 real estate transactions in 2024. The area currently averages AED 1,700 to 1,800 per sq.ft, with 2024 and 2025 launches pricing between AED 2,400 and 2,600 per sq.ft and projections pointing toward AED 5,000 per sq.ft by 2028 as the community matures. Rental yields across the district run high, with waterfront units commanding a premium. Units valued at AED 2 million and above qualify buyers for the UAE's 10-year Golden Visa. The 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom apartments and townhouses comfortably exceed that threshold. There is 0% capital gains tax and 0% income tax on rental income. Emaar's escrow-protected construction schedule 62% complete as of late 2025 removes the development risk that smaller developers carry.

Creek Waters delivers resident amenities across two scales. On the podium: an infinity pool, children's pool, yoga deck, sundeck, BBQ deck, fully equipped gym, children's playground, co-working spaces, and a multi-purpose community room all private to the tower's estimated 450 homes. Beyond the building, Dubai Creek Harbour adds a 96,000 sq.m retail district, a marina accommodating 83 yachts, the Creek Promenade linear park with sports courts and an amphitheatre, and water taxi connections to Downtown Dubai. The Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary provides natural open space on the district's southern edge a protected habitat that will never be developed.
Dubai Creek Harbour occupies a 6-square-kilometre site along the eastern bank of the historic Dubai Creek bordered by the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary to the south and connected to central Dubai via Al Khail Road (E44) and Ras Al Khor Road (D62). The community is 10 minutes from Downtown Dubai and 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport. Dubai's 2040 Urban Master Plan designates Creek Harbour as one of the city's five key urban centres a commitment that translates into sustained infrastructure investment and long-term property value support. Four metro stations within the community eliminate car dependency, and water taxis to Downtown add a commuting option unique to this district.
