About Marina Residences 2
Marina Residences 2 is a residential tower on Palm Jumeirah, one of six numbered towers that make up Nakheel's Marina Residences complex at the tip of the Palm Jumeirah trunk, built around a 600-berth Anchor Marina. Despite the name, the building sits on Palm Jumeirah itself, not in Dubai Marina, and it is also a genuinely different building from "Marina Residence" in Dubai Marina, an older, separate development on Marsa Street originally known as Shahla Tower and now rebranded JAM Marina Residence. The two share a similar name but sit in different areas, came from different developers, and are entirely different buildings.
Marina Residences 2 is a freehold tower rising around 15 storeys, developed by Nakheel and completed as part of the wider Marina Residences handover. It offers a core mix of two and three-bedroom apartments, the wider six-tower complex around it adds one-bedroom apartments, four and five-bedroom duplex penthouses, and three-storey townhouses across its other towers. Marina Residences 2 should not be confused with Marina Residences 1, 4, 5 or 6, four other towers in the same complex with their own dedicated guides on this site.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Marina Residences 2 sits at the tip of the Palm Jumeirah trunk, directly around the complex's own 600-berth Anchor Marina and close to Nakheel Mall, with the Palm Monorail and Palm Jumeirah Tram both within walking distance for onward travel across the island and into Dubai Marina. The Pointe and Atlantis The Palm are a short drive away, and Burj Al Arab is only a few minutes away by car.
Marina Residences 2 joins Royale Stays' wider Palm Jumeirah Building Guide cluster alongside Marina Residences 1, Marina Residences 4, Marina Residences 5 and Marina Residences 6, four other numbered towers in the same complex Royale Stays covers.
Unit Types
Marina Residences 2 offers a core mix of two and three-bedroom apartments. Across the wider six-tower Marina Residences complex, unit types also include one-bedroom apartments, four and five-bedroom duplex penthouses, and three-storey, five-bedroom townhouses along the promenade. Exact unit counts and internal layouts vary tower to tower.
Amenities
Marina Residences 2 offers residents and guests a swimming pool, a gym, a jacuzzi, and a dedicated play area for kids, alongside six high-speed panoramic elevators. Underground parking is available, with one or two free parking spaces per unit depending on apartment size.
Transportation & Access
Marina Residences 2's position at the tip of the Palm Jumeirah trunk puts it close to the Palm Monorail and Palm Jumeirah Tram, both useful for guests without a car who want to reach Atlantis, Nakheel Mall or onward into Dubai Marina. Burj Al Arab is only a few minutes away by road, and Dubai Internet City and Dubai Marina are both close by. Dubai International Airport (DXB) is roughly 30 minutes by car outside peak traffic.
Rental & Price Trends
No single published nightly rate exists for Marina Residences 2 alone, so the figures below use Royale Stays' own Palm Jumeirah portfolio data as the best available area-level benchmark: the Palm Jumeirah 2-bedroom average sits around AED 1,423 a night at 88 percent occupancy (roughly AED 38,922 a month), and the 3-bedroom average sits around AED 1,696 a night (roughly AED 46,565 a month). Royale Stays' current Palm Jumeirah portfolio includes managed units in several of Marina Residences 2's own sibling towers, which feed directly into these blended figures.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Marina Residences 2 already has real, confirmed short-term letting activity: live listings exist naming this exact building on both Booking.com ("Marina Residences 2BR: Seaside in Palm Jumeirah") and Hotels.com ("Marina Residences 2 501, Dubai"), alongside an active resale and long-term rental market through major portals. This is stronger evidence than a general area signal, it confirms professionally managed short-term letting is already active inside this specific building.
As a Nakheel-developed freehold tower with no hotel-brand restrictions attached, short-term letting at Marina Residences 2 follows the standard Dubai holiday-home permit process available to individual owners. Royale Stays manages furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in, guest communications and maintenance for owners here from a fee starting from 15%.
