About Executive Tower M

Executive Tower M, also marketed as West Heights 1, is a residential tower in the Executive Towers complex in Business Bay, developed by Dubai Properties. It is the tallest of the complex’s eleven residential towers, standing 52 to 53 storeys depending on the source: Bayut states 210 metres and 52 floors, while PropSearch states 53 storeys, a common ground-floor counting variance seen elsewhere in this same building cluster. The wider Executive Towers complex comprises 12 buildings in total: eleven residential towers, named B, C, Aspect Tower (also called D), E, F, G, H, J, K, L and M, plus the separate Taj Dubai hotel tower. Construction on the complex began in 2005 and was completed by 2009, with around 1,799 apartments across the whole development. For the full complex picture, see Royale Stays' Executive Towers, Business Bay guide.

Executive Tower M is not the same building as Executive Tower A, a separate residential tower in the same complex covered in its own Royale Stays guide, nor is it connected to DAMAC Executive Bay, an unrelated DAMAC-developed twin-tower complex elsewhere in Business Bay that happens to share the word "Executive" in its name.


Location & Nearby Landmarks

Executive Tower M sits close to Sheikh Zayed Road and Business Bay Metro Station, in the heart of Business Bay. For the wider district picture, see Royale Stays' Business Bay Airbnb management guide. The wider Business Bay district places residents within easy reach of Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai's core attractions.

Within the same complex, Royale Stays also covers Executive Tower A. Elsewhere in Business Bay, DAMAC Executive Bay is a differently-developed complex worth distinguishing by name, and Aykon City Tower B is another Royale Stays Building Guide in the wider Business Bay area.


Unit Types

Executive Tower M offers a diverse mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, per Bayut's building guide. Neither Bayut nor PropSearch publishes a Tower M-specific total unit count or per-unit square footage breakdown, so this guide does not state one rather than estimate it.


Amenities

Confirmed building-specific amenities include a gymnasium, swimming pool, jogging track and a dedicated children's play area, plus ample resident and valet parking, multiple high-speed elevators, 24-hour CCTV and on-site security, central air conditioning with backup generator power, and pet-friendly policies.


Transportation & Access

Business Bay Metro Station (Red Line) and Sheikh Zayed Road are both close by, per Bayut's own building guide for this tower, a genuine building-specific transportation fact rather than an area-wide generalisation.


Business Bay's average apartment rent reached AED 128,021 a year in 2025, up 18.2% year-on-year, per RERA's Q4 2025 Rental Market Report as reported by Bayut, the same figure already used consistently across this cluster's Business Bay Building Guides for consistency. Service charges in Business Bay are broker-estimated at roughly AED 24–25 per square foot annually; this has not been confirmed against DLD's Mollak index for Executive Tower M specifically and is stated as area-level context only, not a building-specific figure. To model potential returns, see the Dubai property ROI calculator.


Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential

As a standard Dubai Properties freehold residential tower, Executive Tower M carries no permit restriction beyond the usual DTCM holiday-home permit process available to any Business Bay apartment owner. No building-specific nightly rate or occupancy figure is stated: none is available for this specific tower and none is invented.

Royale Stays manages the full Airbnb operation for owners across Dubai, including Airbnb property management in Dubai, covering furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications, for a fee starting from 15%, with a single monthly statement covering revenue, fee, costs and net transfer.

Executive Tower M combines the Executive Towers complex's tallest address with a one to four-bedroom unit mix, a workable base for short-term rental demand in Business Bay. To see what an Executive Tower M apartment can earn, get a free earnings estimate and get started today.
