Discovery Dunes: Dubai’s Latest Ultra-Luxury Development

Dubai’s luxury real estate market continues to raise the bar with the introduction of Discovery Dunes, an exclusive residential enclave offering plots priced up to AED 183 million ($50 million). This stunning development caters to high-net-worth individuals seeking the ultimate in privacy and opulence. Located in a coveted area, the enclave promises state-of-the-art architecture, panoramic views, and world-class amenities, making it a rare opportunity for the elite to invest in one of the world’s most sought-after cities.

Discovery Dunes is an exclusive community in southern Dubai, offering 340 luxury properties—mansions, villas, and land plots—spanning 600 acres. To purchase one of these properties, buyers must receive an invitation. Prices for these high-end residences begin at $7.5 million.

Discovery Land Company (DLC) employs a rigorous application process for potential buyers, with 60% of phase one sales secured through word-of-mouth referrals. Land plots will be handed over to buyers starting this summer. The community features a range of amenities, including mountain biking, kite surfing, and an exclusive 18-hole golf course designed by Tom Fazio, opening next year. This marks DLC's first ultra-luxury development in the Middle East, adding to its portfolio of 35 high-end global residential communities.

“We believe that time spent with family and friends is the ultimate luxury,” said Mike Meldman, founder and chairman of DLC. “Discovery Dunes is a way to connect the people who matter most with the things that matter most.”

Discovery Dunes presents a new era of bespoke luxury living in Dubai. This exclusive enclave offers unparalleled customization for villa owners, giving them full control over design elements, from facades to room finishes. Buyers can opt for materials sourced from around the world, ensuring each home is truly unique. The development includes collaborations with award-winning firms like Olson Kundig and Killa Design, ensuring both architectural excellence and luxurious interiors. Discovery Dunes also champions sustainability, integrating green initiatives like an on-site farm and using graywater for its golf course.

For added exclusivity, residents enjoy access to the Bulgari Resort and the private members-only Discovery Downtown.
