About The Grand at Dubai Creek Harbour
The Grand at Dubai Creek Harbour is a 62-storey residential skyscraper developed by Emaar Properties, through its Lagoons Phase One entity, on Creek Island within the wider Dubai Creek Harbour masterplan. Construction began in January 2018 and the tower was completed in October 2022. The building sits directly on the Dubai Creek waterfront and holds 500 registered units.
Emaar marketed The Grand at launch as one of its more upscale Creek Island releases. Unit types span one, two and three-bedroom apartments, four-bedroom penthouses, and two or three-bedroom podium-level townhouses (described as villas by some listing sites), giving the building a wider layout mix than a typical single-format Creek Island tower.
The developer, storey count, unit total and completion date are confirmed independently by propsearch.ae's Dubai Land Department-linked building guide and by Bayut's building guide for The Grand, and further confirmed by Luxhabitat's development listing and Emaar's own press release announcing the tower's launch.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
The Grand sits on Creek Island, directly on the Dubai Creek, with Creek Island Central Park roughly 0.3 km away and Creekside Park Dubai Creek Harbour roughly 0.5 km away. Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is roughly 2.6 km away, the Imagine attraction at Dubai Festival City roughly 1.7 km, Jameel Arts Centre roughly 2.4 km, and Al Badia Golf Club roughly 2.3 km. Two nearby hotel developments sit within about 0.2 km of the tower: Address Grand Creek Harbour Tower 1 and Vida Creek Harbour. Both are separate, differently branded buildings, not part of The Grand itself.
Distances are drawn from propsearch.ae's building guide for The Grand at Dubai Creek Harbour, which lists attractions, parks and nearby hotels at the building level.
Unit Types
The Grand's 500 units include one-bedroom apartments of roughly 798 to 820 sq ft with one bathroom, two-bedroom apartments of roughly 1,200 to 1,340 sq ft with two or three bathrooms, and three-bedroom apartments of roughly 1,811 to 1,908 sq ft with four bathrooms. Above the standard apartment floors, the tower also includes four-bedroom penthouses and two or three-bedroom podium-level townhouses.
Unit-type counts, sizes and bedroom or bathroom counts are drawn from Luxhabitat's development listing for The Grand, checked against propsearch.ae's building guide, which independently confirms the 500-unit total and the same broad mix of apartments, penthouses and townhouse-style units.
Amenities
Reported amenities at The Grand include cabanas, a children's play area, a gymnasium, an infinity pool, a multi-purpose sports area, outdoor barbecue areas, and a tennis court. The tower's ground-floor promenade level also has its own restaurants and coffee shops. For the wider area, Royale Stays' Airbnb management guide for Dubai Creek Harbour covers licensing and demand across the masterplan, and the Address Grand Creek Harbour guide covers a separately branded neighbouring tower roughly 0.2 km away.

Transportation & Access
From The Grand it takes roughly 15 minutes to drive to Dubai Mall, 26 minutes to Palm Jumeirah, 24 minutes to Burj Al Arab, and 29 minutes to The Walk JBR. Dubai International Airport (DXB) is roughly 18 minutes' drive, and Al Maktoum International Airport roughly 46 minutes. Dubai Creek Harbour is also connected to the Dubai Metro network by RTA marine transport lines, which run to Al Jaddaf Marine Transport Station and Creek Metro Station on weekdays, and to Dubai Festival City on weekends.
Drive times are drawn from propsearch.ae's building guide for The Grand at Dubai Creek Harbour, calculated via Google Maps under typical traffic conditions. The RTA marine transport connection is reported at the Dubai Creek Harbour masterplan level, not independently confirmed as building-specific, and is corroborated by Dubai Eye 103.8's reporting on the service alongside a Property Finder water-taxi guide.
Prices & Market Activity
Dubai Land Department-linked sale transaction records show recent prices at The Grand of roughly AED 1,850,000 to AED 2,000,000 for one-bedroom units (around 802 to 804 sq ft), and roughly AED 2,970,000 to AED 3,350,000 for two-bedroom units (around 1,293 to 1,489 sq ft).
Figures combine dated sale transactions from propsearch.ae's Dubai Land Department-linked transaction register (1-bed: AED 1,850,000 on 3 Aug 2026, 802 sq ft, and AED 2,000,000 on 23 Jun 2026, 804 sq ft; 2-bed: AED 2,970,000 on 3 Aug 2026, 1,293 sq ft, and AED 3,350,000 on 22 Jun 2026, 1,489 sq ft). A separate listed record showing a one-bedroom unit at AED 500,000 for 241 sq ft falls well outside the confirmed 798 to 820 sq ft floor plan range for that unit type and is treated as a data anomaly, so it is omitted rather than used. A specific dated three-bedroom transaction was not available at the time of research; the three-bedroom unit type itself (1,811 to 1,908 sq ft) remains confirmed separately by Luxhabitat's development listing, so no three-bedroom price figure is quoted here. Independent broker listings (Property Finder, Metropolitan Premium Properties and opr.ae) separately report asking prices for the building starting from roughly AED 1,265,888, consistent with the range shown above.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Potential
There is no policy reason a unit at The Grand could not be let short-term. The developer here is Emaar Properties directly, not a hotel brand with a letting restriction of the kind that applies to Vida-branded buildings, the only confirmed short-term-letting prohibition in Dubai. Vida Creek Harbour and Address Grand Creek Harbour Tower 1 are both separate, differently branded hotel developments roughly 0.2 km away, but neither is this building.
Dubai Creek Harbour, including Creek Island, is not among the five areas in Royale Stays' current confirmed core markets (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay). Royale Stays has, however, already published extensive building-level coverage of Dubai Creek Harbour and offers a management review to owners at The Grand who want to explore Airbnb management for their unit. Owners can read Royale Stays' Dubai holiday home permit guide for how the process works, model a scenario with the ROI calculator, or submit their property directly.
No The Grand-specific rental income or occupancy figure is quoted here. This section describes general service capability, not an existing track record at this building.
