About AKA Residences
AKA Residences is a freehold 26-storey residential tower in JVC District 11, Jumeirah Village Circle. Propsearch.ae and Dubricks both name AKA International as the developer and Dubai Walls Constructions as the main contractor. Construction began in 2015, and by April 2017 work had reached the top podium level.
The tower sits on a four-level car parking podium with shops on the ground floor and a leisure terrace on the podium. Dubricks records the building as completed and mature at 100% construction, and lists no handover date.
Developer, contractor, storeys and unit count are confirmed by both propsearch.ae and Dubricks. The 2015 start and 2017 podium milestone come from propsearch.ae's timeline, which stops at 2017, so the completion status rests on Dubricks alone. Bayut.com and Property Finder hold no page for the building, and dxbinteract.com could not be loaded. All live-checked 2026-09-24.

Unit Types and Sizes
Dubricks lists 220 units of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Propsearch.ae records the same 220 units without a breakdown by type.
No portal publishes unit counts by type or floor areas for this building, so this guide gives no size ranges. Ask the building management or the seller's agent for the layout of a specific unit before comparing it with others.
Unit types from Dubricks, unit count from propsearch.ae and Dubricks. Neither portal gives sizes. Live-checked 2026-09-24.
Amenities
Propsearch.ae describes a leisure terrace on the podium with two swimming pools and a fitness centre, plus shops on the ground floor. Dubricks lists two swimming pools, a gym, a kids' play area, a lawn or garden, central air conditioning, security staff, CCTV and parking.
Dubricks also lists a salon, a supermarket, a laundry room, a mosque and a medical centre. That list is a generic checklist that partly describes the surrounding community, so only the pools, gym, terrace and shops are confirmed by both portals. Ask the building management for the current facilities.
Pools, gym and terrace appear on both propsearch.ae and Dubricks, and the propsearch.ae wording dates from the building's construction. The remaining items appear on Dubricks alone. Live-checked 2026-09-24.
Transportation and Access
AKA Residences is a car-first location, like most of JVC.
By car, it takes roughly 20 minutes to reach Dubai Mall, 15 minutes to Palm Jumeirah, 17 minutes to Burj Al Arab and 19 minutes to The Walk JBR. Dubai International Airport (DXB) is roughly 25 minutes away and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) roughly 32 minutes.

Price Guide: Sales at AKA Residences
No sale prices could be verified for AKA Residences. Propsearch.ae's page for the building shows no Dubai Land Department transaction records, and Dubricks shows only a chart heading with no figures.
Bayut.com and Property Finder hold no page for the building, and dxbinteract.com could not be loaded, so this guide quotes no price, price per sq ft or median. Check recent Dubai Land Department sales and current listings before setting a purchase budget, then use Royale Stays' Dubai property ROI calculator to test a price against expected returns.
Absence of price data recorded on 2026-09-24 after checking propsearch.ae, Dubricks, Bayut.com, Property Finder and dxbinteract.com. No service-charge or rental figures were found either.
Airbnb Income Potential at AKA Residences
AKA Residences is a residential building with no hotel operator listed, so the standard route applies: the owner holds the title, the unit is registered as a holiday home with the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, and Royale Stays handles the application, the furnishing plan, photography, pricing, guest check-in, communications and maintenance under a management fee from 15%. Our Airbnb management in JVC page covers how that works across the community, and the wider Airbnb property management in Dubai guide covers the service in full.
What works in its favour: two pools and a gym on a podium terrace, three parks within a short walk, Circle Mall 1.0 km away and a wide mix from studios to three-bedrooms. What works against it: it is a car-first location, and no sale price or size data could be verified.
Royale Stays does not publish building-specific earnings for AKA Residences, and no figure on this page should be read as one. JVC is not one of Royale Stays' five core managed areas.
