Designed for Indian buyers, these ultra-luxuries branded residences at Dubai Islands promise a Maldivian-inspired lifestyle at a prime waterfront address

Mumbai, February, 2026: Atmosphere Living, the ultra-luxury branded residences arm of Atmosphere Core, strengthens its footprint in the UAE with the launch of ARKA ENCLAVE Residences at Dubai Islands, in partnership with ManoDev Realty. Among the most ambitious premium developments, ARKA ENCLAVE is envisioned as a destination that seamlessly blends the serenity of a resort with the sophistication of contemporary urban living.

Conceptualised with the discerning Indian buyer in mind, the project presents a compelling opportunity to own a coveted waterfront home in Dubai, combining global hospitality standards with long-term investment value.

The project was unveiled through an exclusive VIP cruise experience on Dubai Creek, offering guests a preview of the lifestyle philosophy that ARKA ENCLAVE seeks to deliver. The development comprises 137 residences, including a limited collection of ultra-exclusive penthouses. Construction is slated to commence in March 2026, with completion and handover expected by Q4 2027.

ARKA ENCLAVE is part of Atmosphere Living’s growing branded residential portfolio, which currently includes three marquee projects and a robust pipeline exceeding 1.1 million square feet across key global destinations. This expansion reflects the brand’s strategic focus on translating its award-winning hospitality expertise into high-value residential assets.

ARKA ENCLAVE distinguishes itself through complimentary core services including 24/7 valet and concierge, alongside an array of premium à la carte offerings. Residents can access in-residence butler and housekeeping services, personalised in-home chef experiences, and a dedicated adventure concierge offering scuba diving, desert safaris, yacht bookings, access to iconic attractions, and hidden local escapes. Additional conveniences such as secretarial assistance further elevate everyday living.

Designed to balance tranquillity with refinement, the residences feature expansive living spaces, private balconies, sweeping water views, and designer interiors. Extending Atmosphere Core’s globally recognised hospitality legacy, the development is positioned as a complete lifestyle destination, featuring intimate lounging zones, lagoon-style experiences, rooftop pools, wellness rooms, Technogym-equipped fitness centres, padel courts, an outdoor cinema and a full-service spa.

Commenting on the launch, Sandeep Ahuja, Global CEO, Atmosphere Living, said, “Dubai has always been central to our growth story, and ARKA ENCLAVE marks a meaningful milestone in expanding our residential vision in the Emirates. By bringing our hospitality DNA into private homes, we are creating environments that prioritise design, wellbeing and elevated living, communities that resonate strongly with global homeowners and investors alike. Looking ahead, we see significant opportunities to scale this model across the Emirates and select international markets.”

Budget Quote From Mr. Sandeep Ahuja, MD, Atmosphere Living

"Although the IGR numbers for November 2024 are lower than those of the previous months, at approximately 9400 registrations generating  a revenue of +825 crore in stampduty , it is essential to note that the ticket size of the projects sold have increased sharply. The average ticket size has increased from around _80lacs in earlier months to around 1.25lacs  this November.".

This trend reflects a growing preference among buyers for larger, premium properties and realizes the evolving demand for space in response to lifestyle needs. Hence, as ticket size increases, it seems that the market is indeed insisting on quality real estate whereas transaction volume might be erratic. This shift underscores a positive long-term outlook for Mumbai's real estate sector as buyers opt for luxury and space in their property choices.

Hoping it is insightful and you would be able to use it.

“The Vikisit Bharat theme is playing out well. The government has made strides in promoting a prosperous Bharat that is in harmony with nature, modern infrastructure, and opportunities for all citizens to reach their potential. A cross-sectoral development effort that benefits all strata of society has been a key area of focus in the budget. The emphasis by the FM on connectivity will surely lead to increased infrastructure development. There are several new transportation corridors in all modes that are in development and will be crucial for India's growth and development. They will help in creating new jobs, increase efficiency and competitiveness, and enhance citizens’ quality of life. The rise in average real income by 50% and inflation being moderate indicates a likely rise in purchasing power. Lastly, the boost to Green energy to live up to the Net Zero commitment by 2070, will lead to more options being developed by real estate players for sustainable living offerings as well.”
