About Downtown Mada Residences
Downtown Mada Residences by Yanjoon is a 39-storey residential tower developed by Artar Real Estate Development, in the Burj Khalifa District of Downtown Dubai. Construction began in September 2015 and the building was completed in 2018, so unlike several newer Downtown towers still mid-handover, Mada Residences has been a fully occupied, income-producing building for years. The tower holds 193 units across a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, each styled with floor-to-ceiling glass throughout for light, airy interiors, according to property records.
The "by Yanjoon" part of the name is not the building's developer, which remains Artar Real Estate Development. It shows up on online listings and booking platforms and most likely identifies a short-term-rental or serviced-apartment operator working within the building, separate from the development itself, similar to how other Google hotel-style listings carry an operator brand suffix on top of the actual building name.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Mada Residences sits inside the Burj Khalifa District, the same walkable pocket of Downtown Dubai that holds Burj Khalifa itself, The Dubai Mall and Dubai Opera. The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and Business Bay both sit close by as neighbouring business districts, and Sheikh Zayed Road gives fast road access across the rest of the city. That mix, walking distance to the world's tallest building and one of its busiest malls, plus quick access to two major office districts, is exactly what short-term guests search for when they choose Downtown Dubai over other areas. See Royale Stays' Downtown Dubai Airbnb management guide for the wider area picture.
Royale Stays also covers several other Downtown Dubai towers within the same Burj Khalifa District pocket, including 8 Boulevard Walk, Imperial Avenue and Downtown Views 1, for anyone comparing buildings in the district directly.

Unit Types
Mada Residences offers a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments across its 39 storeys. Property records confirm the unit-type mix but do not break out exact square footage per bedroom count for this building, so no size figures are stated here beyond a single recorded transaction: a four-bedroom unit sold at 1,155 square feet, priced at roughly AED 1,744 per square foot.
Amenities
According to property records, residents have access to a roof-top swimming pool, a separate children's pool and terrace lounge with views across the city, sauna and steam rooms, a Jacuzzi, a gym and a multi-purpose residents' lounge, with on-site parking confirmed for units in the building. Apartments themselves carry floor-to-ceiling glass throughout.
Transportation & Access
Mada Residences' Burj Khalifa District position puts it within easy reach of Sheikh Zayed Road, Downtown Dubai's main artery into DIFC, Business Bay and the wider city. The Dubai Mall / Burj Khalifa area is served by the Dubai Metro's Red Line, and Downtown's walkable boulevard layout means much of the district's dining and retail is reachable on foot, an advantage worth flagging for short-stay guests who would rather not rent a car.
Rental & Price Trends
No independently verified average sale or rental price specific to Mada Residences was available at the time of writing, so none is asserted here. One recent transaction record shows a four-bedroom unit selling at roughly AED 1,744 per square foot, a single data point rather than a market average. Owners weighing Mada Residences against other Downtown Dubai buildings can run their own numbers through Royale Stays' Dubai property ROI calculator rather than rely on a single sale.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Mada Residences is a standard freehold residential tower developed by Artar Real Estate Development, not a hotel-branded or Vida-managed building, so there is no confirmed prohibition on short-term letting here. Owners who want to list on Airbnb or Booking.com still need the standard DTCM holiday-home permit before taking bookings, the same requirement as any other Downtown Dubai apartment.
Royale Stays manages the full short-term rental process end to end, from furnishing and photography to pricing, check-in, guest communications and maintenance, for a fee starting from 15%. An owner in a completed, already-tenanted building like Mada Residences can move straight from long-term lease or vacant unit to a fully managed short-term listing without coordinating the setup themselves.
