Building Guide · Business Bay

Regalia, Business Bay

Regalia has 76 storeys in Business Bay. Deyaar developed it, and it was completed in 2026. The homes start at studios and rise through three-bedroom apartments to duplexes and penthouses. That spread lets you pick it for a weekend on your own or for a longer stay with a group, and it is why the building reads more like a small village stacked upward than a single-size block.

Deyaar already has towers on this canal

Deyaar is not new to the district. It developed Clayton Residency in 2011. Mayfair Tower has 22 storeys. It holds one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments with views over the Dubai Canal. Regalia is the taller sibling of both, and it carries the same developer name into a much larger slice of sky.


A tall tower among tall towers

Height alone does not set a tower apart here, but 76 storeys does. It stands among hotel towers such as the JW Marriott Marquis and The Oberoi, and many towers in the district have canal and Burj Khalifa views, which gives the skyline a crowded, vertical feel from any window that faces it.


Pool, gym and sauna

Start the day on the wellness side of the building. Regalia has a swimming pool and a gym. A sauna comes with them, so a workout needs no taxi and no early start to beat the traffic on Sheikh Zayed Road. If you are staying a few weeks, a routine built around those rooms does more for the stay than any single view.


An evening without leaving the tower

The barbecue area and the landscaped gardens give you somewhere outdoors once the day cools. The cinema room covers the nights that are too hot or too busy for going out, and it keeps a group together in one place when the plans fall through.


Play area and nursery for families

If you travel with children, the play area for children and the day-care or nursery space are the two things to look at first. They sit inside the tower, which shortens a morning that would otherwise need a drive across town. Hummingbird Nursery is on Bay Avenue, and the district around the tower has clinics, supermarkets and parks as well. Business Bay began as a commercial hub, and that mix makes it more suitable for families than it once was.


A business room and shops downstairs

If you are in Dubai to work, the business or meeting room gives you a place for a call that is not the bedroom. The retail units on site cover small errands without a trip out of the building.


Parking, security and upkeep

Parking for residents comes with the building. Security and CCTV cover it too. Maintenance services are provided on site, which matters more in a tower this large than in a low-rise block.


Studios to penthouses

A studio suits one traveller or a couple on a short trip. The three-bedroom apartments and the duplexes suit friends or a family sharing a stay, and the penthouses sit at the top of the range. It suits you less if you want a quiet low-rise street, because a 76-storey tower is a busy building by design.

Business Bay itself is work-driven and can feel transactional, though its central position, canal walks, cafes and gyms count in its favour. Congestion builds where Sheikh Zayed Road feeds into the district, and peak-hour traffic is heavy. A morning meeting needs extra time for the road.


From the airport to the lobby

DXB is 19.6 km from the tower, about 20 minutes by road. The Red Line runs to DXB. The closest metro stop to Regalia is Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall, 2.99 km away, so a taxi or bus carries you to the platform.


Buses, a canal boat and three roads

The Business Bay 2 Bus Station is 0.61 km from the tower, and the marine transport stop Al Wajeha Al Maeyah is 0.9 km away. The DC2 canal service stops at Marasi and Business Bay. It charges a flat AED 2 per stop. That suits a slow trip when the roads are full.

Sheikh Zayed Road runs along the north and west of the district and Al Khail Road along the south, with Ras Al Khor Road as a third way in. A driver reaches Downtown from here faster than most of Dubai, but the road you pick matters more than the distance.


If you own here

Hosting guests in a Dubai apartment needs a holiday home permit from the Department of Economy and Tourism, and owners register on the Holiday Homes System first. Our write-up of Business Bay for owners sets the district out from the ownership side. Royale Stays manages homes for owners at a management fee from 15%. The service covers furnishing and photography. It also covers pricing and check-in, plus guest communications and maintenance coordination.


Milk, medicine and a first shop

Al Reyhan Mini Mart is 0.7 km away, which makes it the shop for the first evening. Choithrams and Spinneys handle the weekly shop elsewhere in Business Bay, with Loft Supermarket and Viva Supermarket also listed. Bay Avenue Mosque is among the mosques near the supermarkets. BIOS Clinic is 0.72 km away and Supercare Pharmacy 1.33 km, so a headache or a prescription does not need a drive.


Bayside Park 7 and the canal path

Bayside Park 7 is 0.2 km away, close enough for a short walk with children. The Dubai Water Canal Walk is used for walking, jogging and bike hire, with coffee spots beside the water. The Dubai Canal Boardwalk runs through the district and gives the towers a waterside walking route.


A canal cruise and a show

La Perle by Dragone stages artistic performances in Business Bay, and the canal is close by for cruising. Marasi Boardwalk has skyline views and restaurants.


Dinner, brunch and the cinema

The Blacksmith Bar and Eatery serves American-style barbecue, and MAMA'Esh serves Palestinian street food. Vyne Restaurant and Bar and Circle Cafe are listed for breakfast and brunch, while Cafe Delices and Caffe Divino are the named coffee stops. Bay Avenue Mall is the main retail centre in Business Bay, inside the Executive Towers. It has clothing and sportswear stores. Cinemacity is 1.55 km away, which suits a film on a hot evening. Dubai Design District is 0.73 km away, and it gives you something to walk through on a free afternoon.


A school within reach

Hartland International School is 1.25 km away and is the nearest school to the tower. Repton School Dubai, Swiss International Scientific School, Nord Anglia International School and Kings' School Dubai are the larger schools families reach from Business Bay, each a drive away.


Before the towers


Next door: Downtown

Downtown Dubai borders the district, and Business Bay has its own Red Line station beside the Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall stop. The drive to Downtown takes 11 minutes. Other towers here are worth setting beside this one, and DAMAC Towers by Paramount guide and Millennium Binghatti Residence are two to read about. On your first evening, take the short ride to the Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall station, then come back to the canal for dinner.
