About Manazel Al Safa Tower

Manazel Al Safa Tower is a 57-storey residential tower in Business Bay, developed by Al Tayer Real Estate and completed in 2009. The building was originally marketed as Al Tayer Tower during its construction, 2006 to 2009, before completing under the Manazel Al Safa name, so both names still turn up when searching for the property. It holds 244 apartments in total: 156 two-bedroom units, 80 three-bedroom units, and eight penthouses spread across floors 50 to 53. Apartments feature large balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows, built-in wardrobes and fully-equipped kitchens, with upper floors offering views toward the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountains.

Worth flagging for anyone researching the building online: Manazel Al Safa Tower is a different property from Al Safa Tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, a smaller 22-storey building in Trade Centre. The shared Al Safa name is a coincidence between two separate buildings in different parts of the city, and the name similarity extends to the Al Safa residential neighbourhood near Jumeirah, which is also unrelated to this tower’s Business Bay location.


Location & Nearby Landmarks

Manazel Al Safa Tower sits in Business Bay near Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Mustaqbal Street, roughly a kilometre, about an 8-minute drive, from the Burj Khalifa. Business Bay Metro Station is under 400 metres away, and Downtown Dubai’s Dubai Mall is around a 10-minute drive. Other nearby landmarks include the Dubai Canal Waterfront Promenade, Dubai Opera, and DIFC, with Safa Park a short drive away in the neighbouring Al Safa district.

Manazel Al Safa Tower joins Royale Stays’ wider Business Bay Building Guide cluster, alongside Mayfair Tower, J One and Hamilton Residency, other towers Royale Stays has covered in the same community.


Unit Types

The building’s 244 units are split between two- and three-bedroom apartments, plus eight penthouses on floors 50 to 53. Two-bedroom apartments make up the bulk of the building at 156 units, with 80 three-bedroom apartments and the eight penthouse units rounding out the mix. Every unit type includes large balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows, and higher floors carry stronger Burj Khalifa and Dubai Fountain views.


Amenities

Manazel Al Safa Tower offers a gymnasium, a rooftop swimming pool, a sauna, a cinema room, a games and billiards room, a kids’ play area, a business centre with a dedicated business lounge, and a coffee zone. The building also has 24-hour security, reception and concierge services, and covered parking.


Transportation & Access

Business Bay Metro Station is under 400 metres from the tower, putting most of central Dubai within easy reach without a car. Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Mustaqbal Street are both close by for drivers, and Downtown Dubai, DIFC and the Dubai Mall district are all within about a 10-minute drive.


Royale Stays has not independently verified a building-specific rental figure for Manazel Al Safa Tower at this time. For context, two-bedroom apartments across Business Bay as a whole average around AED 801 a night at roughly 88% occupancy, about AED 21,874 a month, based on Royale Stays’ own portfolio data across the area, and three-bedroom units average around AED 1,212 a night at similar occupancy, about AED 33,159 a month. These are area-level blended figures, not specific to this building, and individual results in Manazel Al Safa Tower will depend on the unit’s floor, view and condition.


Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential

Manazel Al Safa Tower is a standard freehold residential building, not a hotel-branded or serviced-apartment property, so it is not subject to the routed-through-management-company permit process that applies to hotel-brand buildings, and it is not affected by the Vida short-term-letting prohibition.

A booking.com listing already appears in the building’s own top search results, indicating at least some short-term letting activity is already happening in the tower. Owners can apply for a standard Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism holiday-home permit, and Royale Stays can manage that process, along with furnishing, pricing, guest communication and maintenance, from 15% of revenue.

A booking.com listing for this building was found in this guide's own SERP research; this is market color, not a Royale Stays-verified performance figure.
