About The Atlantic
The Atlantic is a 19-storey residential tower in the Marsa Dubai area of Dubai Marina, developed by Gulf Shores. Construction began in November 2007 and the building was completed in February 2014. It holds a total of 83 apartments across one, two and three-bedroom layouts.
If you searched for this building by its plain name, it is worth a quick note: "The Atlantic" is also the name of a well-known American magazine, and most general web searches for the bare phrase return results about that publication rather than this Dubai Marina tower. This guide is specifically about the residential building of the same name in Dubai Marina, sometimes listed on property portals as "Atlantic Tower".
Developer, storey count and total unit figures are confirmed across multiple independently checked sources. Propsearch.ae and Arshahomes.com both state a developer of Gulf Shores, 19 storeys and 83 total units, with construction starting November 2007 and completing February 2014. Bayut's own building guide and Al Braik Investments' own project page for this building instead state a developer of Al Braik Investments LLC, 18 storeys and 82 units; the source split is genuinely even on the storey count, so both variants are given. The 4-source-to-2 majority on developer name favours Gulf Shores, the figure used above. Separately, Dubai Land Department transaction records for this building are recorded under two slightly different building-name strings, "Atlantic Tower 1" and "Atlantic Tower 2", which could suggest two separate physical towers. However, no portal or developer-facing source describes The Atlantic as having two separate structures, two separate floor counts or two separate total-unit figures, every non-DLD source gives one combined figure for the whole building, so this is treated here as a Dubai Land Department internal registry-naming inconsistency rather than evidence of a second tower.

No floor-plan diagrams are included in this guide: floor plans are typically the developer’s or broker’s proprietary material and aren’t reproduced here.

Marina Mall Tram Station, on the Dubai Tram network, sits a short distance away, and the DMCC Metro Station on the Red Line is roughly a nine-minute drive.

Sale Prices & Trends
Recent Dubai Land Department sale transactions at The Atlantic show a one-bedroom apartment of 847 sq ft selling for AED 1,800,000 in November 2025. Two-bedroom apartments of 1,675 to 1,794 sq ft have sold between AED 2,500,000 and AED 3,200,000 across six separate sale transactions recorded between September 2025 and August 2026. Arshahomes.com’s own area-average figure for the building sits at AED 2,739,570, with a stated gross yield of 7.4%.
The figures above are read directly from Propsearch.ae's own itemised Dubai Land Department transaction ledger for this building, filtered to genuine Sale-type records only. A commonly circulated figure of roughly AED 2,240,000 for a two-bedroom unit at this building traces to a Mortgage Registration record rather than an actual sale, and is not used here.
Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Short-term letting anywhere in Dubai, including at The Atlantic, runs through a DTCM (Department of Economy and Tourism) holiday home permit, the same licensing requirement that applies regardless of building or area. Royale Stays’ guide to the Dubai holiday home permit covers what the process and fees generally involve.
Real-world short-term-rental activity already exists at this building: Frank Porter, a Dubai holiday-home operator, lists an apartment at "The Atlantic Tower" on Booking.com, and Kennedy Towers separately lists a two-bedroom unit at "Atlantic Tower". We haven't independently confirmed a Royale-Stays-specific income figure for this exact building, and we say so plainly rather than overclaiming proof. Across Royale Stays’ own managed portfolio in Dubai Marina, a well-run one-bedroom apartment earns roughly AED 120,000 to AED 165,000 gross per year at typical occupancy, with net income after management fees and operating costs typically landing around AED 80,000 to AED 110,000.
Royale Stays manages the full furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications process for owners who prefer not to handle it directly. Owners ready to move forward can submit their property for a management review to get a clearer read on its Airbnb potential, or run their own numbers through Royale Stays’ Dubai property ROI calculator.
