About Camelia
Camelia is a residential enclave developed by Emaar Properties within the Arabian Ranches 2 phase of the wider Arabian Ranches masterplan. The community offers predominantly 3- and 4-bedroom townhouses, with some third-party sources also describing standalone villas within Camelia, though that detail was not independently corroborated to the same standard as the townhouse layouts. The community is fully handed over, with an active resale and rental secondary market, not off-plan.
A quick note for anyone researching Camelia online: this guide covers Camelia inside Emaar's Arabian Ranches 2 masterplan. There is a separate, unrelated community also called "Camelia" inside DAMAC Hills 2 (Akoya Oxygen), a different masterplan built by a different developer, DAMAC. The two share only a name.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Camelia sits within the Arabian Ranches 2 phase of the wider Arabian Ranches masterplan, in the Wadi Al Safa area off Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and Al Qudra Road, sharing access to the Arabian Ranches Golf Club and the community's retail centre with the rest of the masterplan.
Royale Stays' guide to Arabian Ranches Villas covers the wider masterplan. Camelia joins the site's existing coverage of other Arabian Ranches sub-communities, including Saheel.
Unit Types
Camelia offers predominantly 3-bedroom townhouses across two recorded layout types, a single-row "Type 1E" of around 1,984 sq ft and a middle-unit "Type 1M" of around 1,919 sq ft, both with a maid's room and a study, alongside larger 4-bedroom townhouses of around 2,650 sq ft. Some sources also mention standalone villas within Camelia; treat this as a soft, less-corroborated detail rather than a confirmed distinct product line.
Amenities
Camelia residents share amenities with the wider Arabian Ranches masterplan, including the Arabian Ranches Golf Club, a community retail centre and souk, parks, walking trails, sports courts and swimming pools. Nearby schools include Jumeirah English Speaking School Arabian Ranches and Nord Anglia International School Dubai, both rated Outstanding by the KHDA.
Transportation & Access
Like the rest of Arabian Ranches, Camelia is a car-dependent community with no Metro or Tram access on site. Access is via Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and Al Qudra Road, with typical drive times to Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina and Dubai International Airport broadly matching the wider masterplan's own published range. Residents typically rely on private cars or ride-hailing services.
Rental & Price Trends
Villa and townhouse pricing and rental data for Camelia were not independently confirmed with a current, reliable figure during this research pass, so no specific AED sale price, rent or service charge is quoted here. As a fully completed Arabian Ranches 2 townhouse cluster, Camelia tends to track the wider masterplan's positioning as a family-oriented, low-density freehold area.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Royale Stays does not currently manage any homes in Camelia or the wider Arabian Ranches masterplan, so there is no Camelia-specific earnings figure to quote here. What can be said honestly is that Emaar's development of Arabian Ranches carries no short-term-letting restriction of the kind that applies to hotel-branded buildings like Vida, so a Camelia home is not structurally blocked from holiday-home use.
For a real sense of what professional villa management can deliver in Dubai, Royale Stays' own resilience data from managing a villa in Mag City, MBR City, and its work across DAMAC Hills and DAMAC Hills 2, are the closest genuine comparisons available, rather than any invented Camelia figure. Royale Stays manages Dubai holiday homes from a 15% fee.
