The Alba Resort Residences by Dorchester Collection

Set on Palm Jumeirah and designed by Zaha Hadid Architects, The Alba is developed by OMNIYAT and managed by Dorchester Collection. The Resort Residences are the furnished, landscaped side of the estate, composed around water and light: fluid architecture, gardens threaded between the buildings, private pools, and interiors drawn to open onto the outdoors. The wider estate carries a 95-room hotel and a wellness centre, and the residences span simplex and duplex plans from two to six bedrooms, with completion scheduled for the third quarter of 2028.

This residence is for the buyer who wants a Palm Jumeirah beachfront address with the architecture and the hotel service already decided. It appeals to owners who will use the home in seasons, who want a fully appointed residence with a private pool, a concierge on call, and resort amenities at the door, and who value the pedigree of the architect and the operator over the noise of a larger tower.
