Press Releases

Emirates Sunland Group (ESG) today announced that Stage 2b properties in White Bay have been released for sale. Set on the shores of Umm Al Quwain, White Bay Stage 2b consists of Waterfront and Attached Garden Villas. The total value of this stage is AED 154 million.

Since White Bay's launch at Cityscape in December last year, the resort style waterfront precinct of Stage 1 has completely sold out, with the majority of the Island Villas in Stage 5 also sold. This represents the sale of over 185 units in the US$3 billon White Bay project.

"The high demand from end users reflects the special nature of the White Bay project," said Luke Barnett, Spokesman for White Bay. "Umm Al Quwain is a beautiful part of the UAE and remains largely untouched while being only a short drive from central Dubai. White Bay offers its residents luxury resort style living with a community feel, and allows access to one of the most natural environments on the Arabian Gulf."

The White Bay community will be built around a central marina, with the town centre facing the waterfront. A boardwalk running along the waters edge will offer fashion boutiques, cafes and open air restaurants and will be a place for residents to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the town. This area will also be the focal point for the community's cultural and entertainment precinct.

Two hotels built on either side of the town centre will offer stunning views over the water and gardens, while a retirement residence will provide the latest medical facilities for those wanting to retire in a resort styled community.

ESG is a joint venture between Dubai based Emirates International Holdings and Australian based Sunland Group Limited. Sunland Group opened the world's first Palazzo Versace Hotel on Australia's Gold Coast in 2000, and last year completed Q1. This was recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the world's tallest residential tower. A mixed residential/commercial tower has also been announced for Business Bay.

As well as project managing White Bay on behalf of Al Murjan Real Estate, Emirates Sunland Group is currently developing several other projects in Dubai. The world's second Palazzo Versace Hotel is currently under construction on Dubai Creek alongside D1, an 80-storey residential/resort tower. D1 will be a sister tower to Q1 on Australia's Gold Coast.

In conjunction with the release of Stage 2b White Bay project Emirates Sunland Group will be displaying the White Bay model at Mall of the Emirates Galleria from 16 – 31 May. Enquires can also be made to 800 9002.
