Overview
About Emaar South
Emaar South is a master-planned residential community developed by Emaar Properties within the wider Dubai South district. Strategically positioned along Emirates Road (E611) and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), the community features apartments, townhouses, and villas designed around an 18-hole championship golf course, making it one of Dubai’s leading golf-focused residential destinations.
Spanning approximately 7 square kilometers, Emaar South is planned to include around 22,700 residential units, more than 15,000 apartment homes, 25 neighborhood parks, retail and dining destinations, and an 18-hole championship golf course. The development follows a low-rise, green-corridor concept that offers a quieter residential environment compared to Dubai’s higher-density urban districts.
Emaar South properties for sale continue to attract both investors and end-users due to the community’s strategic location near Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City Dubai. As Dubai South expands into one of the city’s most important economic and infrastructure hubs, demand for properties for sale in Emaar South is expected to grow alongside ongoing residential, commercial, and transport developments.
