About Tiger Sky Tower
Tiger Sky Tower is a supertall residential development under construction in Business Bay, Dubai, developed by Tiger Properties (marketed under the wider Tiger Group umbrella). The project was officially launched in 2024 and is designed as one of the tallest purely residential towers in the area.
Independent sources, including the research platform propsearch.ae and the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat's Skyscraper Center, put the tower's height at 532 metres (1,745 feet), with around 115 to 116 storeys. The architect of record is National Engineering Bureau, and the main building work is being carried out by Tiger International General Contracting.
Tiger Properties is a Dubai-based developer with a wider portfolio of residential and mixed-use towers across the city. Tiger Sky Tower is a distinct, standalone new-build project in Business Bay, not connected to any of the developer's other, separately named projects elsewhere in Dubai.
Some broker and marketing pages describe the tower's total height as 447 metres. Propsearch.ae's own detailed project data clarifies that 447 metres is the elevation of a planned rooftop rainforest feature, not the building's total height (it separately lists a Royal Sky Penthouse at 426 metres and a rooftop infinity pool at 431 metres, both below the 532-metre roof height cited above). One property portal's own overview data also cites 122 total floors rather than 115-116; this is treated here as a difference in counting convention (likely including podium, mechanical and parking levels) rather than a competing height claim, and 115-116 is used as the primary figure since it is corroborated by two independent, non-broker sources.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Tiger Sky Tower sits in Business Bay, Dubai's canal-front business and residential district a short distance south of Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa. The area is served by the Dubai Water Canal, Sheikh Zayed Road and the Business Bay Metro station, and is a well-established base for both business travellers and long-stay tenants. Nearby, Bayz 102 is another Business Bay tower covered in Royale Stays' Business Bay guide.
Tiger Sky Tower falls within Royale Stays' wider Business Bay coverage area, detailed in Airbnb Property Management in Business Bay. Nearby, Royale Stays also covers Burj Pacific and West Wharf, two more Business Bay towers.
Unit Types
Tiger Sky Tower is planned to offer an estimated 848 units, spanning one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments plus 18 penthouses. Apartment sizes are reported from roughly 873 up to about 2,974 square feet, while the penthouse collection (five- and seven-bedroom layouts, including a Royal Sky Penthouse) ranges from around 11,999 up to 12,421 square feet. Penthouses are marketed with customizable interior styles (Arabic, Chinese, Greek and French) and built-in Candy-brand kitchen and bathroom appliances.
The 848-unit estimate comes from a single research-platform source and has not been independently corroborated by a second source this session; the underlying bedroom-type mix and size ranges are confirmed across two independent sources.
Amenities
Planned amenities include a rooftop infinity pool marketed as a potential world's-highest, a rooftop terrace built around a themed rainforest feature, a health club and gymnasium, jogging track, basketball and tennis courts, a cigar room, spa, kids' play area, adult and children's pools, barbecue facilities, shaded seating areas, and round-the-clock security and concierge services. As with any pre-completion tower, these are the developer's current plans rather than confirmed, delivered features.
Development Timeline & Status
Tiger Sky Tower was officially launched in 2024 (reported as June or July 2024 depending on the source), with construction beginning around the same time. As of this guide's research date, the tower remains under construction, with Dubai Land Department transaction records already showing off-plan pre-registration sales activity: 50 sale transactions were on record at the time of research, with recent examples including a two-bedroom, 1,442-square-foot unit sold for AED 3,362,402 (AED 2,331 per square foot) and a one-bedroom, 873-square-foot unit sold for AED 2,836,929 (AED 3,249 per square foot). Listed starting prices begin from around AED 2.2 million.
Public estimates for handover vary. Propsearch.ae's own project data and the independently maintained Skyscraper Center both point to an expected completion around the end of 2029. A broker-facing marketing page instead states a Q4 2028 handover, roughly a year earlier. Given that the two independent, non-broker sources agree with each other, this guide treats end of 2029 as the more likely completion window, while noting the earlier broker estimate. Anyone considering a purchase should confirm the current timeline directly with the developer or a licensed Dubai broker.
Propsearch.ae's own project timeline separately cites a Gulf News report that a well-known footballer purchased a penthouse in the development in December 2025. This claim is single-sourced and was not independently re-verified this session; it is noted here only as attributed, unconfirmed background color, not as an established fact.
Future STR Potential
Tiger Sky Tower is not yet handed over, so no unit here can be listed for short-term rental today. Once a unit is confirmed delivered with clear title, short-term letting would follow the standard Dubai process: a DTCM holiday-home permit routed through the building's own management company. Tiger Properties carries no confirmed short-term-letting prohibition, unlike Vida-branded buildings, so there is no policy barrier once the building itself is ready. Owners buying off-plan today who are thinking ahead to Airbnb management can read Off-Plan in Dubai: Can I Airbnb Before Handover? for the general timeline and rules.
Royale Stays manages short-term rentals across Business Bay for a fee starting from 15%, covering furnishing, photography, pricing, guest communications and maintenance. Owners who confirm a handed-over, titled unit at Tiger Sky Tower can use the Dubai Property ROI Calculator to model potential returns once the unit is ready to list, and can submit their property once the building is confirmed ready, or reach out via Royale Stays' Airbnb property management service for general questions in the meantime.
