The Ritz-Carlton is set to bring its signature brand of luxury to Dubai’s World Islands, with a new collection of private island villas and residences expected to launch in 2027.


Dubai has never been shy when it comes to luxury real estate. Over the past few years, the city has seen a steady stream of new residential developments, and now, another big name is joining the city’s ever-growing luxury residential scene. The Ritz-Carlton Residences are coming to Dubai at The World Islands, promising residents the chance to experience an exclusive private island lifestyle just off the city’s coastline.

Dubai-born developer AVENEW Development has announced plans to develop The Ritz-Carlton Residences Dubai, The World Islands, within the Hawaii Islands cluster of The World Islands. The ambitious archipelago comprises around 260 man-made islands located approximately four kilometres off the Jumeirah coastline.

The upcoming Ritz-Carlton Residences in Dubai are set to offer a rare combination of privacy, waterfront living and easy access to the city. The development is planned to feature a collection of luxury villas alongside two- and three-bedroom low-rise residences, creating a more intimate residential retreat away from the bustle of central Dubai.

For buyers seeking luxury waterfront property in Dubai, the development could offer a particularly appealing proposition. The private island setting is expected to put space, exclusivity and views of the surrounding waters at the heart of the residential experience, while the Ritz-Carlton name adds an established global luxury hospitality brand to the project.

This won’t be the first time Ritz-Carlton-branded residences have arrived in the UAE. The brand already has a presence in the country through residential projects including The Ritz-Carlton Residences at Creekside and Business Bay, and The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Abu Dhabi, Al Maqta. The arrival of The Ritz-Carlton Residences Dubai, The World Islands adds another high-profile name to Dubai’s growing luxury property market and reflects the city’s continued appetite for branded residences and ultra-exclusive waterfront developments.

The project is still in the early stages, with sales expected to begin in 2027 and further details yet to be announced. However, for anyone dreaming of waking up on a private island surrounded by waterfront views — with the Ritz-Carlton name attached to their home — this is one Dubai real estate project to watch.
