Lunaya Townhouses and Villas

Lunaya is a gated, low-density villa and townhouse community in Jebel Ali, directly off Sheikh Zayed Road and opposite Palm Jebel Ali, developed by Zaya (the team behind Al Barari) in an equal 50/50 partnership with FIVE. It pairs Zaya's placemaking legacy with FIVE's hospitality expertise. The 4.2 million sq ft masterplan is permitted for 1,900 units but built to just 564 townhouses and villas, alongside five G+7 apartment buildings. 65% of the community is dedicated to landscaping, shaded walkways, gardens and water, with 900,000 sq ft of swimmable beach lagoons, eight lakes and waterways flowing across the entire development. Four home types: The Bloom (4-bedroom townhouse, 2,966 sq ft), The Rise (4-bedroom premium waterfront townhouse / maisonette, 3,814 sq ft), The Dune (5-bedroom semi-detached duet with private pool and courtyard, 6,635 sq ft) and The Sol (5-bedroom independent villa with rooftop infinity pool and gym, 8,231 sq ft). Every home includes a maid's room, a private elevator and minimum 3 m ceilings on each level, with double-height spaces in select areas. Gardens are up to 1.5x larger than previous Al Barari phases, and every villa opens toward public landscaped zones. Interiors feature large-format European ceramic and porcelain tiles, wooden flooring in bedrooms, Miele / Siemens-class appliances and smart-home systems. Facades combine textured white clay with wood-inspired louvres. Homes are handed over fully landscaped with irrigation. Each villa has a private two-car garage plus two street parking spaces, with visitor parking near the lagoons. The site sits within the Jebel Ali growth corridor, 19 km from Al Maktoum International Airport with no flight path overhead, and high-rise development in the area is restricted. Construction began in April 2026, with completion in phases from Q1 2029 depending on the cluster. 100% freehold for all nationalities, and purchases can be made as an individual or a company. A 4% DLD registration fee plus an Oqood admin fee of AED 3,150 apply at SPA signing. Off-plan mortgages are available through Commercial Bank of Dubai, typically financing up to 50% during construction. The community is pet-friendly and will have a resident app and digital portal.
