UAE's BEYOND launches AED 3 billion Dubai Islands residential project

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On November 10, UAE real estate developer BEYOND Developments officially launched the SHIONE residential development project on Dubai Islands, with a planned investment of AED 3 billion (approximately USD 817 million) to build two residential towers of 21 and 20 storeys, offering a total of 603 residences. Located on Island B of Dubai Islands, the project is the second residential development within the SIORA coastal master plan and is expected to be delivered in Q4 2030.

SHIONE comprises two residential buildings, planned to offer one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, as well as three- and four-bedroom duplex residences. The 603 residences encompass 38 unit types and more than 150 spatial layouts, with some duplex residences featuring private outdoor spaces, maid's rooms and dual-aspect views. Floor-to-ceiling height is 3.1 metres, and the facades organise architectural space through horizontal layering and connecting sky bridges, and feature double-height terraces.

The project's amenities are concentrated on an elevated landscaped podium connecting the two residential towers and on the ground floor of the buildings. Communal spaces include a Zen garden, meditation lawn, landscaped work terraces, adult pool, children's pool, jacuzzi and residents' lounge areas. Fitness facilities include a fitness club, yoga and indoor cycling studios, an outdoor training area, steam rooms and sauna facilities.

In terms of retail offerings, the project plans 14 retail and dining units, located on the ground floor of the residential buildings and in two standalone retail pavilions. The community also features a multipurpose activity room, residents' kitchen, indoor and outdoor children's play areas and communal social terraces, along with 24/7 security services.

SHIONE is the second residential development under BEYOND's SIORA coastal master plan. The first residential project launched previously, HADO, comprises 3 residential towers of 21 storeys, offering a total of 678 residences. The SIORA master plan covers an area of more than 2 million square feet, with over 70% of the area designated for open green space, featuring more than 1.5 million square feet of landscaped areas, shaded walkways and approximately 6 kilometres of continuous beachfront, complemented by hotels, retail, dining and leisure facilities.

Dubai Islands consists of 5 islands with a total area of approximately 18.6 square kilometres, featuring more than 60 kilometres of coastline and over 20 kilometres of beaches, connected to mainland Dubai by 3 bridges. The area where SHIONE is located is approximately 15 minutes' drive from Dubai International Airport and approximately 25 minutes' drive from Downtown Dubai. According to the developer's published plans, the project is expected to be completed and delivered in Q4 2030.
