The Alba Residences Dorchester Collection

The Alba Residences Dorchester Collection is an ultra-luxury residential development by Omniyat Group on the eastern crescent of Palm Jumeirah. Just 60 residences across the entire building — a deliberate constraint that defines the exclusivity of the address.

Three names shape everything about this project: Zaha Hadid Architects on the exterior, Gilles & Boissier on the interiors, and the Dorchester Collection managing the services. Each is the best in their category. The combination at this scale, on this location, is rare anywhere in the world.

Location

The eastern crescent of Palm Jumeirah is one of Dubai's most private and prestigious addresses, with direct views across to the city's most iconic landmarks.

• Direct views of Dubai Marina, Burj Al Arab, and Burj Khalifa
• Private beachfront on the Arabian Gulf
• Close to Palm Jumeirah's dining, hospitality, and leisure offerings
• Serene, private setting with convenient access to the city's main attractions

Architecture

Designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, the building's organic curves and undulating forms are drawn from the movement of Arabian Gulf waves and the light of dawn.

• Fluid, futuristic facade that evolves visually throughout the day
• Seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces
• Architecture that responds to its natural waterfront setting rather than imposing on it

The Residences

60 residences total across four configurations:

• 3-bedroom apartment: 5,368 sq. ft.
• 4-bedroom apartment: 6,744 sq. ft.
• 3-bedroom duplex: 5,586 sq. ft.
• 4-bedroom duplex: 6,912 sq. ft.

Every residence features a dual-aspect layout maximizing views of the beach, landscaped grounds, and the Dubai skyline simultaneously. Three distinct interior design packages are available, allowing residents to select a scheme that suits their personal aesthetic.

Interior Design

Interiors are designed by Gilles & Boissier — the acclaimed French duo known for blending classic European refinement with contemporary luxury.

• Opulent materials, rich textures, and refined finishes throughout
• Design philosophy balancing visual impact with genuine daily comfort
• Classic charm meeting modern luxury in every detail

Amenities & Services

Managed by the Dorchester Collection — one of the world's most respected luxury hotel and residence operators.

• Private pools and jacuzzis
• Private beach access with sun loungers
• Exclusive concierge services tailored to each resident
• Landmark landscape design by Vladimir Djurovic featuring waterfalls, lily ponds, and tranquil pathways
• Beautifully landscaped grounds with social gathering areas
• Full resort-style outdoor facilities in a completely private setting

Lifestyle

The Alba is for residents who have no interest in compromise — on privacy, on design, on service, or on location.

• 60 residences means genuine exclusivity, not a marketing claim
• Dorchester Collection service standards applied to residential living
• Private beach and resort amenities without leaving the building
• One of the few addresses in Dubai where the architecture itself is a globally significant work

Investment Overview

Starting from AED 44,000,000, with handover Q1 2028.

• Ultra-limited inventory of 60 units — supply constraint is permanent
• Eastern crescent Palm Jumeirah commands a consistent premium in Dubai's luxury market
• Three world-class names attached to one project supports long-term asset value and international buyer demand
• Dorchester Collection management adds a hospitality-grade service layer that protects and enhances resale appeal
• Omniyat's track record in ultra-luxury delivery is well established in Dubai
