About Al Khail Heights 7A-7B
Al Khail Heights 7A-7B is one of the numbered apartment-building pairs within the wider Al Khail Heights residential community in Al Quoz 4, Dubai, developed by Texture Holding Ltd. PropSearch, an independent Dubai property research platform, states the developer as Texture Holdings, operating through its Al Khail Heights subsidiary, and records construction beginning in November 2013 and completing in December 2015, consistent with Driven Properties' own community guide, which describes the project as launched in 2013 and handed over in 2015.
PropSearch's own building-records page tracks 11 named apartment-building pairs across the community, from 1A/1B through 11A/11B, and lists "Al Khail Heights RB 7A & 7B" among them as a completed development. Driven Properties, however, describes the wider community as comprising 58 townhouses and 26 apartment buildings, a broader figure that does not map precisely onto PropSearch's 11 numbered building pairs. This guide states both figures rather than reconciling them, since a third source was not found to resolve the difference.
Neither source independently confirms a storey count or total unit count specific to building 7A-7B itself. Per the Dubai Land Department, cited by PropSearch, the wider Al Khail Heights project was valued at approximately AED 647,746,000 at the time of submission, an estimate rather than a final construction cost.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Al Khail Heights sits in the Al Quoz 4 district of Dubai, with direct road access to Al Khail Road (E44) and Sheikh Zayed Road (E11), per Driven Properties' own community guide. There is no dedicated Royale Stays area guide for Al Quoz 4 yet, so for a broader read on managing a short-term rental in this part of Dubai, see Royale Stays' guide to choosing an Airbnb management company in Dubai.
Per Driven Properties, Downtown Dubai is roughly 8.5 kilometres away, Business Bay roughly 7.2 kilometres, DIFC roughly 10.6 kilometres, Mall of the Emirates roughly 10.8 kilometres, and Dubai International Airport roughly 19.2 kilometres. PropSearch's own drive-time estimates for different landmarks put Dubai Mall at roughly 13 minutes' drive, Palm Jumeirah at roughly 18 minutes, Burj Al Arab at roughly 17 minutes, and The Walk at JBR at roughly 22 minutes, with Dubai International Airport at roughly 21 minutes' drive and Al Maktoum International Airport at roughly 38 minutes. Royale Stays has not yet published a Building Guide for another building in Al Quoz 4, so no sibling building is linked from this section, a gap flagged here for a future update rather than filled with an unrelated area's building.
Unit Types
Across the wider Al Khail Heights community, Driven Properties describes a full range of property types from studio through five-bedroom apartments, offered under leasehold ownership. Real Dubai Land Department transaction records surfaced by PropSearch also include 6-bedroom properties of roughly 7,200 to 7,982 square feet, recorded under DLD's "Villa" property type, which appear to correspond to the 58 townhouses Driven Properties describes as part of the community, even though DLD's own records label them "Villa" rather than "Townhouse."
PropSearch's visible transaction sample for the community includes recent studio and one-bedroom sales at buildings 1A-1B, 2A-2B, 5A-5B, 6A-6B, 8A-8B and 9A-9B, ranging from roughly 386 to 978 square feet, but no transaction specific to building 7A-7B appeared in the records checked for this guide. A confirmed unit mix or size range specific to 7A-7B itself, as opposed to the wider community, is therefore not stated here as fact. No floor-plan diagrams are included in this guide: floor plans are typically the developer's proprietary material and have not been reproduced here.
Amenities
Per Driven Properties' community guide, shared facilities across Al Khail Heights include gyms, swimming pools, spas, saunas, tennis and basketball courts, a cycling track, children's play areas, ample parking, 24-hour security and ongoing maintenance. PropSearch's summary of the developer's own promised amenities independently lists gourmet restaurants, family-friendly cafes, a hypermarket, boutiques, community swimming pools, gyms, a jogging track, a cycling track, a tennis court, mini football grounds, a basketball court and a volleyball court.
These are shared, community-wide facilities described by both sources rather than amenities independently confirmed as specific to building 7A-7B alone.
Transportation & Access
Per Driven Properties, Business Bay Metro Station is roughly 9 minutes away and Al Safa Metro Station roughly 12 minutes away, with the Al Khail Heights 1 and 2 bus stops served directly by RTA buses. The community has direct road links to Al Khail Road and Sheikh Zayed Road.
PropSearch's drive-time estimates put Dubai International Airport at roughly 21 minutes and Al Maktoum International Airport at roughly 38 minutes under typical traffic conditions. Al Khail Mall and Oasis Mall sit nearby within the community's immediate surroundings, per Driven Properties.
Rental & Price Trends
PropSearch's building records show genuine, dated Dubai Land Department sale transactions across the wider Al Khail Heights community, though none specific to building 7A-7B appeared in the sample checked for this guide. Recent studio sales include AED 900,000 for an 824-square-foot unit at building 8A-8B (June 2026), AED 650,000 for a 643-square-foot unit at building 9A-9B (June 2026), and AED 570,000 for a 540-square-foot unit at building 6A-6B (June 2026), alongside a one-bedroom sale of AED 795,424 for a 978-square-foot unit at building 1A-1B (June 2026). These figures are community context rather than 7A-7B-specific pricing.
Royale Stays has not independently confirmed a specific monthly rental figure or service charge for Al Khail Heights 7A-7B in this pass, so neither is stated here as fact.

Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Driven Properties' own community guide describes Al Khail Heights, including the Al Khail Heights residential community as a whole, as offered under leasehold ownership rather than the standard Dubai mainland freehold structure found at many other buildings covered in this series. Royale Stays was not able to independently confirm, through a live check attempted for this guide, whether leasehold title at Al Khail Heights affects a unit's eligibility for a DTCM (Department of Economy and Tourism) holiday home permit the same way it would for a standard freehold owner: direct attempts to reach the relevant government sources during this build were unsuccessful. This is a genuinely different situation from DIFC leasehold buildings such as Sky Gardens, where leasehold status is already established not to block holiday-home use, since Al Quoz 4 is standard Dubai mainland rather than a free zone, so that precedent is not assumed to carry over here. This is stated honestly as an open question rather than a confirmed yes or a confirmed no, and an owner considering Airbnb at a leasehold Al Khail Heights unit should verify permit eligibility directly, starting with Royale Stays' guide to the Dubai holiday home permit.
Despite that open question, real short-term-rental activity already exists at the property: Deluxe Holiday Homes operates a dedicated building page for "Al Khail Heights 7A-7B," and a Booking.com listing titled "Charming 1BR at Al Khail Heights Al Quoz by Deluxe Holiday Homes" confirms genuine bookings are already taking place within the Al Khail Heights residential community. Royale Stays has not independently identified the specific operator's occupancy or nightly-rate figures, so neither is stated here as fact.
For an owner weighing whether Airbnb makes sense for a unit at Al Khail Heights 7A-7B, the practical starting points are confirming permit eligibility for the specific unit's title type, and pricing the unit competitively against comparable Al Quoz 4 and wider Business Bay-adjacent listings. Royale Stays manages the full furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications process for owners who prefer not to handle it directly, and our guide to what separates a strong Airbnb management company from a weak one sets out what to look for when comparing operators. Owners ready to move forward can submit their property for a management review to get a clearer read on its Airbnb potential.
