Mina Rashid 2025: What Buyers and Investors Need to Know

Dubai is transforming its historic port into one of the most exciting waterfront communities in the city: Mina Rashid, also known as Rashid Yachts & Marina. Developed by Emaar in partnership with P&O Marinas, it combines Dubai’s maritime heritage with modern luxury living.

For both investors and end-users in 2025, Mina Rashid offers a rare chance to buy into a central, waterfront destination before it fully matures.

Why Mina Rashid Stands Out

• Built on the site of Dubai’s first commercial port, giving it heritage value.

• Covers more than 6 million square feet of mixed-use waterfront space.

• Includes a parks, floating yacht club, retail promenade, 500-metre canal pool, and a marina with berths for luxury yachts.

• The QE2 ocean liner, docked permanently, has been converted into a hotel and cultural attraction.

• Planned “Dubai Mall by the Sea” will bring shopping and leisure right on the water.

This mix of heritage, lifestyle, and luxury positioning sets Mina Rashid apart from other masterplans.

Price Points Comparison (2022 – 2025)

Mina Rashid has already seen significant price growth since its first launches:

• 1-bedroom apartments started from AED 1.2M — the most recent launch now starts at AED 2.2M.

• 2-bedroom apartments started from AED 2.1M — the most recent launch now starts at AED 4.5M.

This price movement highlights how early investors have already gained strong capital appreciation, and why new buyers are still entering despite higher entry points.

The upcoming Aurea launch represents one of the final opportunities to invest in Mina Rashid. With limited remaining supply, each new launch commands higher prices, meaning investors can anticipate immediate and ongoing capital appreciation as the community develops.

Location and Connectivity

Mina Rashid is located between Deira and Bur Dubai, making it far more central than many new waterfront communities.

• 15 minutes to Dubai International Airport.

• 20 minutes to Downtown Dubai.

• Road links are improving, and marine transport options are planned to connect the marina with other parts of the city.

This makes it appealing both for expats relocating full-time and for investors targeting rental demand.

Lifestyle and Amenities

For end-users, Mina Rashid is designed as more than just apartments. The lifestyle package is what draws buyers in:

• Private beach access

• A 500-metre canal pool

• Parks, promenades, and family spaces

• Yacht marina and club

• Cafés, retail, and dining on the waterfront

It blends the feel of a luxury resort with the practicality of being close to the city.

Who Should Consider Mina Rashid

Investors:

• Waterfront scarcity gives long-term appreciation potential.

• Emaar’s brand reputation helps ensure resale demand.

• Newer projects are still at launch stage, giving room for price growth as the community matures.

End-users:

• Ideal for expats who want central waterfront living.

• Families who want green spaces, beach access, and marina lifestyle.

• Buyers who value views and lifestyle over bargain pricing.

Key Things to Watch

• Many projects hand over in 2028, so short-term investors should factor in waiting time.

• Premium views (marina or sea) command higher prices — weigh whether the premium is worth it.

• Full amenities like retail and promenade areas will roll out gradually, not all at once.

• Early resale liquidity may be limited until the community gains more residents.

Final Thoughts

Mina Rashid is one of Dubai’s most unique new waterfront communities. It offers:

• A rare combination of heritage and luxury.

• Central location near the airport and Downtown.

• Waterfront lifestyle with beach, marina, and promenades.

For investors, early entry could mean strong appreciation over the next 3–5 years. For lifestyle buyers, Mina Rashid offers a home that feels like a resort while keeping you close to the city.
