Rabdan Developments
One hundred and sixty-eight apartments in Arjan with terraces, private pools in some units and desert-toned interiors — completing Q4 2026.
Unit count, sizes, handover and amenities are published by the developer. Its price is inconsistent across its own pages — see the price panel.
Gharbi I is the quieter half of the developer’s Arjan pair: 168 apartments in studios, one and two-bedrooms, some with a study, a maid’s room, a terrace or a private pool. Interiors are described as desert-dune inspired — muted palettes and natural textures — and the building is close to Dubai Miracle Garden.
Arjan is the practical end of Dubailand: freehold, mid-rise, close to Al Barsha South, with Miracle Garden, the Butterfly Garden and a growing retail base nearby. It is popular with families and with tenants who work in Al Barsha, Media City or Dubai Investments Park, and it is consistently one of the better-performing rental districts in the city per square foot.
The amenities are the portfolio standard: rooftop cinema, yoga space, business hub, sauna and steam room, coffee shop and kids playground. The differentiator here is the private pools and terraces on selected units.
The awkward part is the price. The Gharbi I project page says price on request. The developer’s own properties index lists it from AED 1,240,000. Those are not the same statement, and at this stage of a project — four years after launch and weeks from handover — it usually means the remaining inventory is being sold unit by unit. Ask for the live list.
Compiled October 2026 from Rabdan Developments’ official Gharbi I page and portfolio listing.
| Type | Size | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | from 442 sq ft | Smallest apartments |
| 1 bedroom | mid-range | Some with study, maid’s room or terrace |
| 2 bedroom | up to 2,096 sq ft | Largest, some with private pool |
| Total | 168 units | Eight property types |
As published by Rabdan Developments. The unit-by-unit mix and which apartments have private pools are released with the price list.
The developer’s own site gives two answers: the Gharbi I page shows price on request, while the properties index lists it from AED 1,240,000. Treat the second as a guide and the first as the honest answer — inventory this late in a build is sold unit by unit.
| Stage | Share | Note |
|---|---|---|
| On booking | 20% | Down payment |
| During construction | 40% | Quarterly instalments |
| On handover | 10% | At key handover |
| Post-handover | 30% | Spread over 3 years |
Because handover is Q4 2026, most of the plan is behind a buyer joining now — expect the construction instalments to be accelerated to the current stage, and the post-handover 30% to be the part that actually matters. Check whether the developer is now selling completed stock, which would make the plan irrelevant.
4% Dubai Land Department transfer, administration charges and the first year of service charges are additional.
Plan as published by Rabdan Developments; the applied schedule for a current purchase is confirmed per unit.
A tight, usable list rather than a resort deck — and the rooftop cinema and business hub are the two that matter for a building aimed at young professionals and small families in Arjan.
