Nakheel launches Palm Central Private Residences on Palm Jebel Ali
Nakheel, part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has unveiled Palm Central Private Residences, a landmark project redefining resort-style living on Palm Jebel Ali. Positioned along the island’s central spine between Frond M and Frond N, the project brings a refined, community-focused lifestyle concept to one of Dubai’s most ambitious waterfront destinations. It extends Palm Jebel Ali’s residential offering beyond beachfront villas into a dynamic, connected urban heart.
Design and lifestyle concept
The development comprises 212 residences across three mid-rise buildings, featuring panoramic views of the sea and skyline. Options range from one- to five-bedroom apartments and signature penthouses with private pools. Each home combines open layouts, elegant interiors, and a seamless indoor-outdoor design to emphasize wellness, comfort, and connection. Landscaped courtyards, wellness zones, and social lounges foster both privacy and a sense of community.
Developer vision and leadership
Khalid Al Malik, CEO of Dubai Holding Real Estate, stated: “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 neighbourhood where homes, wellness, learning, retail, and worship sit within a short walk.” He emphasized that this project complements the existing beachfront villas while promoting inclusivity and connectedness within a calm, contemporary environment.
Complementing previous villa launches
This launch follows the earlier unveiling of Palm Jebel Ali’s Beach and Coral Collection villas, developed with leading international architects. While those emphasize coastal exclusivity, Palm Central Private Residences introduces an accessible form of island living, blending modern architecture with resort-inspired community spaces.
Key infrastructure and amenities
Adding to Palm Jebel Ali’s evolving landscape, the development includes a 9,000 sqm retail hub and a landmark Friday mosque designed by world-renowned architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM). Accommodating up to 1,000 worshippers, the mosque’s sculptural design reinterprets traditional Islamic forms with light-filled interiors, creating a contemplative and serene space at the heart of the island.
Palm Jebel Ali: shaping Dubai’s next waterfront era
Stretching 13.4 kilometres and encompassing seven interconnected islands, Palm Jebel Ali features 16 fronds and over 90 kilometres of beachfront. The master plan aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan and the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, integrating smart city design, sustainable infrastructure, and walkable public spaces. It represents Dubai’s ongoing ambition to build future-ready communities where innovation and livability converge.
Setting new standards for island living
Palm Central Private Residences cements Nakheel’s role as a leader in redefining waterfront urbanism. Beyond luxury, the project emphasizes balance—combining relaxation, community interaction, and architectural distinction. By merging Dubai’s legacy of iconic design with a human-centered approach, it offers a blueprint for resort-inspired living that is both sustainable and aspirational.
