About this project

Portside Square is a waterfront residential development in Mina Rashid designed by Ellington. The project features studios, 1–4 bedroom apartments, and duplexes with coastal views across the marina and Arabian Gulf. Units start from AED 1.15 million, with completion scheduled for December 2029.

Location and Connectivity

Mina Rashid sits along Dubai's historic port district, now redeveloped into a residential waterfront community. The location provides marina access and waterfront dining while maintaining connectivity to central business districts. Downtown Dubai is 15–20 minutes away, Dubai International Airport 20–25 minutes, and Business Bay around 20 minutes by car. Residents have access to Sheikh Zayed Road and metro routes.

Design and Layout

The architecture incorporates curved facades and full-height glazing to maximize sea views and natural light. Interiors use warm tones and smart home systems. Unit sizes range from 395 sqft studios to 3,440 sqft 4-bedroom residences. The development includes a dedicated commercial tower with business and retail facilities.

Amenities and Facilities

Portside Square offers an indoor swimming pool, children's pool, gymnasium, spa facilities, and landscaped gardens with play areas. The development provides private marina berths, beach access, waterfront pathways, and covered parking with EV charging. Services include 24-hour security, concierge support, and community event spaces.

Investment Profile

Freehold ownership is available to UAE nationals and foreign buyers. Two payment plans are offered: both require 20% down payment, 50% during construction, and 30% on handover. The 50% construction portion can be paid as a lump sum or across 8 installments. The waterfront location and structured payment terms support rental demand and capital appreciation potential.
