The Address Boulevard Dubai Airbnb Income: What Owners Actually Earn in 2026

About our data: nightly rates and occupancy draw from Royale Stays managed-portfolio booking data across Downtown Dubai apartments, alongside DTCM and Airbnb market figures.
An apartment at The Address Boulevard sits at the centre of Downtown Dubai, the highest-demand short-term rental district in the city. The combination of a five-star serviced-residence address, a Burj Khalifa-facing position, and year-round visitor demand makes it one of the stronger income plays in the Emaar portfolio. To see how it compares against every other operator and management option, the best Airbnb management company in Dubai guide breaks down how to evaluate the market.
The Address Boulevard at a Glance
The Address Boulevard is a 72-storey Emaar tower on Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard, the ring road that wraps Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Mall. The building blends an Address-branded five-star hotel on its lower floors with serviced residences above, ranging from one-bedroom apartments to large three and four-bedroom units. Residents share hotel-grade facilities: an infinity pool deck overlooking the Dubai Fountain, a spa, several restaurants, and direct air-conditioned access toward The Dubai Mall. For owners, that serviced-residence positioning is exactly what short-stay guests pay a premium for. The wider district picture sits in the Downtown Dubai Airbnb management guide, which covers demand, rules, and earnings across the area.
What The Address Boulevard Earns on Airbnb
Across Royale Stays managed Downtown Dubai apartments, the blended nightly rate is AED 1,179 at 88% occupancy. By unit type, a one-bedroom averages AED 654 a night and grosses about AED 17,888 a month, a two-bedroom averages AED 1,093 a night for roughly AED 29,901 a month, and a three-bedroom averages AED 2,220 a night for around AED 60,596 a month. The Address Boulevard sits at the upper end of those ranges because of the branded-residence premium and the fountain-facing views, so a well-presented two-bedroom here realistically tracks the top of the Downtown band rather than the middle. Full area-level figures by property type are set out in the Downtown Dubai rental income guide.
Short-Term vs Long-Term at The Address Boulevard
A two-bedroom at The Address Boulevard grossing AED 29,901 a month on short-term rental returns roughly AED 25,400 a month to the owner after a from 15% management fee. A comparable two-bedroom on a standard annual lease in Downtown typically returns well under half that on a monthly basis, with the gap widening further once you account for the serviced-residence premium short-stay guests pay here. The trade-off is operational intensity, which is why most owners use full management. To model your own unit against both options, the Dubai property ROI calculator lets you enter your purchase price and see net short-term returns directly.
Why The Address Boulevard Works for Short-Term Rental
Downtown Dubai draws two demand streams at once: leisure visitors who want to wake up beside Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain, and business travellers attending events at the nearby Dubai World Trade Centre and DIFC. The Address Boulevard serves both. Walkable access to The Dubai Mall, the metro, and the fountain promenade keeps occupancy high across the year, and the serviced-residence brand reassures guests booking sight unseen. That steady, mixed demand is what underpins the 88% occupancy Downtown apartments achieve.

Managing Your Address Boulevard Apartment
Running a short-term let at The Address Boulevard means a DTCM holiday home permit, professional photography, dynamic pricing, round-the-clock guest communication, housekeeping between every stay, and coordination with the building’s owners association. Royale Stays handles all of it end to end for a from 15% fee, including permit submission for owners who are overseas. Owners receive a single monthly statement covering gross revenue, the fee, costs, and the net amount transferred. The result is hotel-style operation of a private residence without the owner managing any of the day-to-day.
Conclusion
The Address Boulevard pairs a branded five-star address with the strongest short-term rental demand in Dubai, and the numbers reflect it: a managed two-bedroom nets in the region of AED 25,400 a month after fees. For owners who want that return without the operational load, professional management is the difference between a good asset and a productive one.
