About the Building
Gate Eleven Residences is a freehold apartment development in District 11, part of Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City), Meydan. It is developed by Amwaj Development and comprises four mid-rise buildings (Gate Eleven Building 1 through 4), each built to a basement plus ground plus five floors plus roof structure, arranged around a shared, landscaped, lagoon-facing podium. The project totals 182 freehold apartments and is registered with Dubai’s Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA permit 1014626264, DLD project number 3729).
District 11 should not be confused with District One, a separate, better-known Meydan Sobha joint-venture community elsewhere in MBR City built around its own crystal lagoon. Gate Eleven Residences sits within District 11 specifically, alongside other in-progress developments covered on Royale Stays’ own District 11 area guide.
Handover is developer-targeted for the first quarter of 2028 (completion date 31 March 2028 per the project's own fact sheet); one source separately lists an earlier December 2027 handover figure for the same project, which this guide discloses rather than silently resolves. As of publication, Gate Eleven Residences remains under construction and has not been handed over.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Gate Eleven Residences sits in District 11, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, close to Al Ain Road. Per the developer, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road is roughly 4 minutes away, Meydan Racecourse roughly 12 minutes, Dubai Design District roughly 13 minutes, Downtown Dubai roughly 18 minutes, and Dubai International Airport roughly 15 minutes. Royale Stays’ MBR City Airbnb management guide covers the wider Meydan area.
Within District 11, owners comparing Gate Eleven Residences against other in-progress projects can also look at Knightsbridge by LEOS Developments, Wadi Villas by Arista Properties, and The 100, Meydan, all fellow District 11 developments.
Unit Types
Gate Eleven Residences offers four configurations across its 182 units: 1-bedroom (68 units, roughly 677 to 1,329 sq ft, from around AED 1.2 million), 1-bedroom plus study (62 units, roughly 836 to 1,690 sq ft, from around AED 1.5 million), 2-bedroom junior (15 units, roughly 1,081 to 1,092 sq ft, from around AED 2.5 million), and 2-bedroom senior (37 units, roughly 1,197 to 1,991 sq ft, from around AED 2.5 million). Several floor plans are offered within each category.
Amenities
Shared amenities are spread across the podium and rooftop levels: an infinity pool, a separate roof lounge and pool, a sauna, table tennis, a landscaped "Boho Garden," a yoga studio, a fully-equipped gym, a boxing studio, a gaming room, and dedicated kids’ art club and play areas. The buildings are marketed around a shared, landscaped, lagoon-facing podium, per the developer’s own description.
Per the developer's own project listing, 142 primary (developer-sale) transactions were recorded for the project as of this guide's research date, at an average price of approximately AED 1,832,491; this reflects off-plan primary-market pricing activity, not a resale or rental comparable, and comes from a single source not independently cross-verified this session.
Transportation & Access
Gate Eleven Residences sits within District 11 close to Al Ain Road, with quick access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (roughly 4 minutes by car, per the developer) and the wider Mohammed Bin Rashid City road network. Dubai International Airport is reachable in roughly 15 minutes and Downtown Dubai in roughly 18 minutes. As with most of District 11, the area is car-dependent, with no Dubai Metro station directly serving the development.
Rental & Price Trends
Gate Eleven Residences is currently sold off-plan, with prices starting from around AED 1.3 million for a 1-bedroom unit. As a pre-handover project still under construction ahead of its targeted Q1 2028 handover, it does not yet have a completed-unit resale or rental history of its own. Owners weighing a Gate Eleven Residences purchase against other District 11 or wider Meydan options can model both scenarios with Royale Stays’ Dubai property ROI calculator.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Gate Eleven Residences is a pre-handover, off-plan development, so no current Airbnb or short-term rental activity exists there yet, and Royale Stays makes no claim of managing any unit in the building today.
Once handed over, District 11’s freehold status and growing footprint of new residential and lifestyle amenities, together with Meydan’s established short-stay demand near Downtown Dubai and Business Bay, would make individual Gate Eleven units realistic short-term rental candidates for owners. Amwaj Development is a private developer, not a hotel brand and not Vida-branded (the only confirmed strict short-term-letting prohibition on Royale Stays’ own list), so the standard direct-owner DTCM holiday-home permit route would apply once handover completes, the same as any other standard freehold Dubai apartment. Royale Stays’ Airbnb management services, furnishing, photography, dynamic pricing, guest communications, check-in and maintenance coordination, are available from a management fee starting at 15%. Owners planning ahead of handover can submit their property for a free assessment.
Royale Stays has no current partnership, affiliation, or commercial relationship with Amwaj Development. This page is an independent building guide for owners and investors researching the project.
