The
Palm, Jebel Ali is located 20 km outside Dubai,
in the direction of Abu Dhabi. Fifty percent larger
than Palm Jumeirah, Palm Jebel Ali will be a dynamic
destination for those looking for the exclusivity
of Palm Island, but with even more access to the
marine environment. The completion date is estimated
to be around the first quarter of 2009.
Like The Palm Jumeirah, The Palm Jebel Ali is based
on the shape of a palm tree, with a ‘trunk’,
17 ‘fronds’ and a ‘crescent’
forming the breakwater. The Trunk will become the
Las Vegas of Dubai. It was created with a vision
of becoming an unparalleled getaway and nightlife
destination for residents and visitors alike, with
an array of luxury themed hotels, entertainment
centres, restaurants, clubs and shopping centres.
The developers have decided to keep the same specifications
for Signature Villas, Garden Villas and Town Homes
on The Palm Jebel Ali as exist on The Palm Jumeirah.
However, their disposition will be different on
Palm Jebel Ali, and the fronds will start with the
town homes, followed by the garden homes and then
at the end of the fronds and at the best location
the signature villas will emerge.
Moreover, The Palm Jebel Ali will comprise water
homes built on stilts that spell a poem written
by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum
the ruler of Dubai. The apartments will be built
on the crescent.
It will take another 2 years for the owners to move
on Palm Jebel Ali. Nevertheless, the demand and
the prices have gone up tremendously in the last
month. All villas and water homes have been sold
out a long time ago and the resale market is already
booming. A lot of interested people, who missed
out the opportunity to buy on The Palm Jumeirah,
are trying to purchase on Palm Jebel Ali.
