About Windsor Manor

Windsor Manor is a 29-storey residential tower in Business Bay, developed by Deyaar Development. Construction began in 2007 and the building was completed in 2010, making it one of the earlier-delivered towers in the district, well before Business Bay's more recent wave of canal-front development. The tower holds 338 apartments in a mix of one, two and three-bedroom layouts, positioned directly on the Dubai Water Canal.

As with many Business Bay towers from this era, Windsor Manor is a straightforward freehold residential building rather than a branded or hotel-operated property, which keeps ownership and short-term rental setup relatively simple for individual apartment owners.


Location & Nearby Landmarks

Windsor Manor sits on Al Khail Road in Business Bay, directly on the Dubai Water Canal, one of Dubai's most central freehold districts and only a short drive from Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa. For a wider view of the area's short-term rental market, Royale Stays' Airbnb management guide for Business Bay covers licensing and demand across the district.

Business Bay is also home to several other towers covered separately on royalestays.com, including Zada Tower, AG Tower and Executive Towers, each with its own layout and unit mix.


Unit Types

Windsor Manor offers one, two and three-bedroom apartments, 338 units in total across the tower. Real Dubai Land Department transaction records show two-bedroom units here running around 1,640 square feet, generous sizing typical of Business Bay's earlier development cycle.


Amenities

Windsor Manor offers a swimming pool and a gym or health club, plus additional facilities that vary by source, including a rooftop garden, sauna, jacuzzi, children's play area and community lawn space. Owners and prospective guests should confirm the current facility list with building management, since amenity offerings can change over a tower's lifetime.


Transportation & Access

Windsor Manor's Al Khail Road position gives residents and short-term guests quick access to Sheikh Zayed Road and the wider Business Bay district, putting Downtown Dubai, DIFC and Dubai Mall within a short drive. Dubai International Airport is around 20 minutes away by car, with Al Maktoum International around 40 minutes.


Real Dubai Land Department transaction records show a two-bedroom apartment in Windsor Manor selling for AED 2,000,000 (1,640 sq ft, AED 1,220 per square foot) as of July 2026, with a separate similar-size unit recording a sale at AED 2,007,799 (1,639 sq ft, AED 1,225 per square foot) in June 2026, part of a wider set of 50 recorded sale transactions for the building. Owners weighing a specific unit's numbers can run their own scenario through Royale Stays' ROI calculator.


Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential

Renting a Windsor Manor apartment short-term needs a DTCM holiday home permit, professional photography, dynamic pricing, round-the-clock guest communication, housekeeping between stays, and owners-association coordination. Business Bay is one of the five areas Royale Stays actively manages, and real managed-portfolio figures from the district show 1-bedroom units averaging AED 473/night at 88% occupancy (AED 12,879/month), 2-bedroom units averaging AED 801/night at 88% occupancy (AED 21,874/month), and 3-bedroom units averaging AED 1,212/night at 88% occupancy (AED 33,159/month), a spread that lines up directly with Windsor Manor's own one, two and three-bedroom mix. Royale Stays runs the full operation for a fee starting from 15%, covering furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications, with a single monthly statement covering revenue, fee, costs and net transfer.

Deyaar is a private developer, not a hotel brand: there is no policy reason, unlike Vida, the site's only confirmed prohibited brand, that Windsor Manor apartments can't be run as licensed holiday homes. The wider operational approach is covered in Royale Stays' guide to Airbnb property management in Dubai. Owners ready to move forward can submit their property for a free earnings estimate.
