BNW Developments
Ninety-nine sea-view apartments on Al Marjan Island, from studios-scale one-beds to a single four-bedroom, with handover scheduled for Q4 2027.
Aqua Maya is the middle of BNW’s Al Marjan range: 99 apartments plus two retail units, priced from AED 1.78 million, on an island where the entry tickets now sit above AED 2 million for most new launches.
The design brief is water rather than architecture — a balcony-led façade that mimics the movement of waves, with lighting designed to read at night. Inside, the layouts are light-led with indoor-outdoor transitions that matter in a beach climate: shaded terraces, cross ventilation, privacy from the neighbouring stack.
The mix is unashamedly rental-facing: 76 one-bedrooms, 20 two-bedrooms, two three-bedrooms and one four-bedroom. If you are buying for short-let yield near the Wynn, this is the unit type that lets; if you want a family home, the single four-bedroom is the only candidate and it will be priced accordingly.
On the island. Al Marjan’s case rests on the Wynn resort, which will bring the first integrated gaming-led hospitality to the UAE. That is exceptional demand if it lands as planned, and the reason prices on the island have moved. It is also the reason to check the delivery schedule of every competing project before assuming a rental premium at handover.
