About Churchill Towers
Churchill Towers rises directly on the Dubai Water Canal in Business Bay, a twin-tower complex that pairs the residential Churchill Residence with the commercial Churchill Executive tower next door. The project was originally launched by Deyaar Developments in 2006, then taken over and completed by Emirates National Investment in 2010, confirmed against Bayut's building profile. This guide covers Churchill Residence, the residential tower, since that is where holiday-home letting applies.
Churchill Residence stands 61 storeys tall. The neighbouring Churchill Executive tower is a separate commercial building of roughly 656 offices and 16 retail shops, not part of the residential inventory this guide covers.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Churchill Towers sits directly on the Dubai Water Canal, one of Business Bay's defining waterfront positions, with views over the canal and the surrounding skyline. For a wider look at what makes Business Bay work for short-term rentals, see Royale Stays' Business Bay Airbnb management guide.
Business Bay is home to several other canal-front buildings Royale Stays covers, including The Opus by Omniyat and Merano Tower, each with its own layout and rental profile.

Churchill Residence holds 618 apartments across one, two and three-bedroom layouts, along with a small number of four-bedroom penthouses. It is the larger and taller of the two towers in the complex.

Rental & Price Trends

Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Business Bay is an established, actively-booked short-term rental submarket in Dubai, and Churchill Residence's freehold status means there is no confirmed prohibition on holiday-home letting here, unlike Vida-branded buildings, which are the only confirmed exception under Royale Stays' permit policy. Royale Stays' Airbnb management services cover furnishing, photography, dynamic pricing, guest communications, check-in and maintenance coordination, all handled from a management fee starting at 15%.
Owners considering a Churchill Residence apartment for short-term letting can get a free property assessment by submitting their property directly. Because Churchill Residence is a standard freehold residential building, holiday-home permitting follows the normal Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism route: see Royale Stays' holiday home permit guide for the full process.
