Nakheel has launched Palm Central Private Residences, a new landmark in resort-style, residential living development on Palm Jebel Ali. Positioned along the island’s central spine between Frond M and Frond N, the development introduces a refined concept of community-oriented living to one of Dubai’s most iconic destinations, extending Palm Jebel Ali’s lifestyle offerings beyond beachfront villas into the heart of the island.
Designed around wellbeing, comfort and connection, Palm Central Private Residences features 212 residences across three mid-rise buildings with panoramic views of the sea and skyline. The mix includes one- to five-bedroom apartments and signature penthouses with private pools – each combining generous layouts, elegant interiors, and a seamless indoor-outdoor aesthetic.
The development’s landscaped courtyards, wellness zones, and social lounges create a balanced lifestyle that brings together privacy and shared connection, setting a new standard for resort-inspired family living in Dubai.
“Palm Jebel Ali advances Dubai’s vision for people-centred waterfront living. With Palm Central Private Residences, we bring resort living into the everyday, creating a central neighbourhood where homes, wellness, learning, retail and worship sit within a short walk. This residential model complements our beachfront villas, broadens the island’s residential mix and supports a more inclusive and connected community that is calm, contemporary and distinctly Dubai.”
Khalid Al Malik, Chief Executive Officer, Dubai Holding Real Estate
This launch follows the unveiling of Palm Jebel Ali’s Beach and Coral Collection villas, developed in collaboration with leading international architects. While the villas celebrate coastal exclusivity, Palm Central Private Residences introduces a more connected and accessible interpretation of island living, blending architecture, community and resort comfort within a single destination.
Adding to the island’s vibrant infrastructure, Palm Jebel Ali will also feature a 9,000 sqm retail centre and a Friday mosque designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM). Accommodating up to 1,000 worshippers, the mosque reimagines traditional Islamic architecture through sculptural forms that invite light and reflection, creating a serene and contemplative space at the island’s core.
Palm Jebel Ali includes 16 fronds and over 90 kilometres of beachfront. The masterplan aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan and Dubai Economic Agenda D33, integrating smart design principles, sustainable infrastructure, and walkable public spaces to shape a future-focused, mixed-use community that embodies Dubai’s continued growth and ambition.
