Aras Group
Seven apartments on seven floors at Al Jaddaf Waterfront, each a five-bedroom with maid’s room — the smallest and most unusual project Aras Group has published.
Seven floors and seven apartments are the developer’s own. The “from AED 560,000” figure is repeated identically on three Aras project pages and cannot be a real entry price for a full-floor five-bedroom; it is shown here only because it is what the developer publishes, and we would not quote it to a buyer.
Jamal is the smallest thing in the Aras portfolio and the most interesting on paper: seven apartments across seven floors at Al Jaddaf Waterfront, each one a five-bedroom with a maid’s room. That is a whole-floor apartment rather than a unit in a tower, and it puts the project in a category — boutique creek-side family homes — that very little else in Al Jaddaf occupies.
The published detail stops at the floor count. There is no internal area, no terrace area, no price list and no amenity schedule. The description is location copy: ten minutes from Burj Khalifa, fifteen from Dubai Marina, on Dubai Creek, in a district the developer says is home to luxury towers and landmarks.
The same page also carries the kind of sales language we would not repeat as analysis — “invest before the boom” and “massive ROI potential”. Al Jaddaf has genuinely appreciated, and the creek frontage is genuinely scarce. But no return or capital appreciation is promised on this page, and a seven-unit building is a thin market on exit: your buyer will be one specific household, not a queue.
What to weigh. Seven units means the service charge is shared between seven owners, and a creek-front building with full-floor apartments carries real common-area cost — lifts, lobby, façade, waterfront maintenance. Ask for the developer’s estimate per square foot per year before you look at the price. Ask, too, which floors are still available, whether the penthouse level is one of them, and what the view corridor is: on Al Jaddaf Waterfront the creek view is the product, and what is built next door decides it.

No areas are published for Jamal. For a full-floor five-bedroom this is the first number to ask for, split between internal area and terrace: on a waterfront building the terrace can be a meaningful share of what you are paying for, and it is priced differently from internal area in the service-charge calculation.
No payment plan is published. The “from AED 560,000” shown on the developer’s page is the same figure used on two other Aras projects and is not credible for a full-floor five-bedroom; treat any price you are given verbally as unverified until it appears on a price list.
At this scale, terms are often negotiated rather than published. That is fine — but get the negotiated terms into the SPA: deposit, milestone payments, handover percentage, retention, delay compensation and the escrow account details.
No amenity list is published for Jamal. With seven apartments the building may carry very little shared facility, which is both the appeal and the risk: fewer things to maintain, but also fewer owners to share the cost of the things that do exist.
Ask specifically about parking — how many spaces per apartment, and whether they are in a basement or on a podium — and about lift access, since one apartment per floor means lift design affects privacy and service access.
Al Jaddaf Waterfront, on Dubai Creek. Aras puts Burj Khalifa about ten minutes away and Dubai Marina about fifteen, which is roughly right for a good-traffic run.
The waterfront strip is the best part of the address: creek views, the promenade, and a short drive to Downtown, DIFC and Dubai Festival City. Check the plot line and what sits between the building and the water, because “waterfront” in Al Jaddaf can mean first row or two streets back.

No price list is published. The “from AED 560,000” on the developer’s page is the same figure used on other Aras projects and is not a credible entry price for a full-floor five-bedroom. Ask for the price list per floor.
Aras publishes no areas for Jamal. Internal and terrace areas per floor are the first thing to request.
Q2 2028 on the developer’s status line, though the same page also shows a Q2 2027 release window.

It is a lifestyle purchase more than a yield play. Seven owners means higher service charge per apartment and a very thin resale market — your exit depends on one specific buyer. That can be fine on the waterfront, but it should be priced in.
