The project
Rixos Hotel & Residences is a waterfront development of mid-rise buildings on Dubai Islands, with direct access to a 700 metre beach. The homes are one, two and three bedroom apartments, four bedroom duplexes with private pools, beach houses with gardens and ten villas. Floor-to-ceiling windows and overhanging terraces give each home sea views. Sources: nakheel.com, brochure (PDF)
The market says
Too few sales on record to say.
James Paul Booth
“There are too few recent sales in Rixos for me to quote a return. I would price it from the last sale of the same layout, and I would not pay more for a promise.”

Rixos on the map

Three views of the same place, from the same direction. The other towers we cover are on all three: click one to open its page.

3D: AI picture models of our towers (height and position from the map, detail approximate) and blocks from OpenStreetMap heights.

Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom

Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, by the developer or by an earlier buyer (a Land Department "delayed sell"). The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 22 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

Type
No sales and no listings.

Rents are asking rents, not registered contracts. Yield = asking rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (0 of 0 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (0); a sale at exactly the same price as that unit's sale before (0); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (0). They stay in the list below with a label.

Too few resale sales to state a yearly change

0 resale sales in the last 12 months and 0 in the 12 months before. Each period needs at least 5.

Too few quarters with sales to draw a chart.

Bars: median AED per sq ft by quarter. Blue line and blue numbers under the bars: number of sales in the quarter. Last 16 quarters at most. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales.

The official record

Checked, not found. We could not match this tower to a building name in the Dubai Land Department register, so sales before 2020, offices, shops, mortgages and gifts are not shown.

Own a unit here?

Ask for a report on your unit: its sales history, the same type's sales in the last 12 months and the homes for sale against it. A licensed partner agent, named on the report with the registration number, sends it. BUY DUBAI is not a broker and takes no part in the sale.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 2020 to 22 Oct 2026, checked by year against Dubai Land Department open data. Our unit list does not hold every sale, so some sales are missing.
  • Listings: one snapshot, 7 Oct 2026. Asking prices and asking rents.
  • Residents and building facts: Google Maps reviews and guide pages (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., drivenproperties.com, famproperties.com, live adverts: community guide), read by an AI model on 26 Oct 2026 with a fixed question list. A script checks that each answer names its source.
  • Nobody visited the tower. Every fact is from a document, a map or a resident's review.
  • Checked, not found for this tower: sales, a Google Maps place, resident reviews, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
