About Executive Tower A
Executive Tower A is a residential tower within the Executive Towers complex in Business Bay, Dubai, developed by Dubai Properties (Dubai Properties Group). The wider complex broke ground in 2005 and was completed by 2009, and offers a mix of loft, garden and terrace apartments alongside one, two and three-bedroom units.
Executive Towers is a 12-building complex. Both Bayut's and PropSearch's building guides for the development name eleven residential towers, Executive Tower B, C, Aspect Tower (also called Tower D), E, F, G, H, J, K, L and M, plus a separate hotel-operated tower, Taj Dubai (also known as the Executive Hotel Tower). Neither portal's building guide lists a tower named "A" among these, so this guide's building-specific figures could not be independently corroborated by either source beyond the address and description supplied by Deluxe Holiday Homes, which operates a short-term rental listing under the Executive Tower A name on Al A'amal Street in Business Bay, within the Executive Towers complex. This is stated plainly rather than assumed, per Royale Stays' building-fact verification standard.
Executive Tower A itself is ordinary freehold residential property, separate from Taj Dubai, the complex's hotel-operated building. Across the Executive Towers complex, individual towers range from 29 to 53 storeys plus a shared basement parking level, per PropSearch's structured building data; Tower A's own specific storey count and total unit count are not independently confirmed by either source, so no specific numbers are stated here as fact.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Executive Tower A sits on Al A'amal Street in Business Bay, close to Sheikh Zayed Road. Burj Khalifa is roughly 3.6 kilometres away, about a 7-minute drive, and The Dubai Mall is around 4 kilometres away, about an 8-minute drive. For the wider district picture, see Royale Stays' guide to Airbnb management across Business Bay.
Bay Avenue Mall and its third-level plaza, "The Courtyard," connect directly to Executive Tower A via the complex's shared podium, and Business Bay Canal Walk is within easy reach for a waterside stroll. Owners comparing buildings in the area may also find it useful to look at other Business Bay towers Royale Stays has covered: Elite Business Bay Residence, DAMAC Reva Residences and Meera Tower, all elsewhere in Business Bay.
Unit Types
Executive Tower A offers loft, garden and terrace apartments alongside one, two and three-bedroom units. Deluxe Holiday Homes, which operates a short-term rental listing under the building's name, describes the range as running from cozy one-bedroom apartments to spacious two-bedroom layouts, and potentially larger depending on availability.
Bayut's wider description of the Executive Towers complex also references studios, four-bedroom apartments, podium villas and duplex penthouses across the development as a whole, though this is not confirmed as Tower A's own specific unit mix. No floor-plan diagrams are included here: floor plans are typically the developer's or broker's proprietary material and have not been independently verified for this guide.
Amenities
At the tower level, Executive Tower A has a swimming pool and a gym, along with 24/7 security and concierge coverage and allocated on-site parking, per Deluxe Holiday Homes' building page.
The wider Executive Towers complex adds Bay Avenue, a roughly 170,000-square-foot retail promenade spread across two podium levels with a hypermarket, a spa, a men's salon, a tanning centre, and a range of cafes and restaurants. A park, running track, skate park and children's play area were added to the complex in 2014, and a third podium level, "The Courtyard," contains landscaped plazas and communal facilities shared across the development.
Transportation & Access
Business Bay Metro Station on the Red Line is about a 10-minute walk (roughly 800 metres) from Executive Tower A, and the Bay Avenue 1 and Bay Avenue 2 RTA bus stops are around a 5-minute walk away. Sheikh Zayed Road is minutes from the building, giving quick road access to Dubai Marina, JLT and JBR, and taxis are readily available throughout Business Bay.
Rental & Price Trends
Royale Stays has not independently confirmed rents specific to Executive Tower A in this pass, so the figure below describes Business Bay's rental market at an area level rather than this particular tower. Per Bayut's reporting, the average Business Bay apartment rent reached AED 128,021 per year in 2025, up 18.2 percent year-on-year.
Service charges for Executive Tower A have not been confirmed via the Dubai Land Department's Mollak index in this pass: broker-reported estimates from portals such as Bayut and fam Properties put Business Bay's general range at approximately AED 24 to 25 per square foot per year, though this figure should be treated as indicative rather than an authoritative Mollak-sourced number. Owners weighing a specific unit's earning potential can run their own numbers through Royale Stays' Dubai property ROI calculator.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Short-term letting anywhere in Dubai, including at Executive Tower A, runs through a DTCM (Department of Economy and Tourism) holiday home permit, the same licensing requirement that applies regardless of building or area. An owner considering Airbnb at Executive Tower A would need to hold that permit before listing a unit, in addition to confirming the building's own short-term letting policy. Royale Stays' guide to the Dubai holiday home permit covers what the process and fees generally involve.
Short-term demand for Executive Tower A is not purely theoretical: Deluxe Holiday Homes runs a dedicated building page with an active furnished one-bedroom listing under the building's name, though the page itself shows the nightly rate inconsistently, once as starting from around AED 313 and elsewhere as roughly AED 1,320 to 1,396, likely reflecting seasonal or promotional pricing rather than one fixed rate. Airbnb listings more broadly reference Executive Towers and Business Bay apartments. Royale Stays does not currently hold Executive Tower A-specific booking data of its own, so no building-specific occupancy figure is stated here as fact.
For an owner weighing whether Airbnb makes sense for a unit at Executive Tower A, the practical starting points are the same as anywhere else in Business Bay: confirming the building's short-term letting policy, applying for the DTCM permit, and pricing the unit competitively against comparable Business Bay listings. Royale Stays manages the full furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications process for owners who prefer not to handle it directly, and our guide to what separates a strong Airbnb management company from a weak one sets out what to look for when comparing operators. Owners ready to move forward can submit their property for a management review to get a clearer read on its Airbnb potential.
