Picture a morning that starts with a swim in a crystal lagoon and ends with dinner on a white sand beach, all without leaving your postcode. Tilal Al Ghaf is Majid Al Futtaim's flagship residential destination in Dubailand, built across three million square metres around a swimmable lagoon and 400 metres of open beachfront. From three bedroom townhouses to waterfront mansions on private islands, this is resort living with a residence address.
Launched in 2018 and master planned by Majid Al Futtaim Development, Tilal Al Ghaf was designed as a low density, nature led community rather than a conventional villa grid. The masterplan was revised in 2021 to reduce density further, widen the green corridors and enlarge plot sizes, a decision that has shaped the community's positioning ever since.
At its centre sits Lagoon Al Ghaf, a 70,000 square metre swimmable lagoon fringed by palm lined white sand beaches, with kayaking, paddleboarding and dedicated family zones. Around it, a network of walkable neighbourhoods is connected by 18 kilometres of trails, cycling lanes and shaded pathways, along with roughly 500,000 square metres of parkland.
The community is planned to deliver around 6,500 homes across ten phases, ranging from townhouses in Aura and Riwa to the ultra prime mansions of Serenity, Elysian and Lanai Islands. Retail, schooling and healthcare sit inside the boundary, and a Sunset Hospitality operated beach club, clubhouse, spa and fitness offer is set to anchor the social life of the community.
Tilal Al Ghaf is bordered by Dubai Sports City and DAMAC Hills, positioned along Hessa Street with direct reach to Al Khail Road, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Emirates Road.
Direct access to Hessa Street (D61) and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street (D54)
Connections to Al Khail Road (E44), Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and Emirates Road (E611)
Bus routes serving neighbouring Dubai Sports City and Motor City
Internal cycling and pedestrian network linking every neighbourhood to the lagoon
No metro line at present, so the community is car led by design

Tilal Al Ghaf has recorded approximately 28 to 45% appreciation since its launch phases, with around 10 percent movement in the last six months. Average rental yields sit near 6.55 percent based on Dubai Land Department data. The low density masterplan limits future supply, which supports values over the long term. The trade off is that entry pricing is no longer low, so this is a hold and appreciate play rather than a quick flip.
Tilal Al Ghaf is developed by Majid Al Futtaim Development, the same group behind Mall of the Emirates and City Centre. The community launched in 2018 with a ten year development timeline and a masterplan that was deliberately revised in 2021 to lower density and increase green space.
Lagoon Al Ghaf is a 70,000 square metre swimmable crystal lagoon at the centre of the community, edged by 400 metres of white sand beach known as Hive Beach. Residents use it for swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding, and it is supported by outdoor gyms, barbecue areas and family zones.
The community offers three and four bedroom townhouses in Aura and Riwa, semi detached villas in The Perch, four to six bedroom villas across Harmony and Elora Beach, and five to seven bedroom mansions in Serenity, Alaya and Elysian Mansions. Lanai Islands and Plagette 32 represent the ultra prime tier with island plots and water bungalows.
Royal Grammar School Guildford Dubai, a British curriculum school, is located inside the community. GEMS Metropole, South View School, Jebel Ali School, Victory Heights Primary and Safa Community School are all within roughly 11 to 15 minutes.
No. Tilal Al Ghaf is not currently served by the Dubai Metro and residents rely on private vehicles. Bus routes serve neighbouring Dubai Sports City. The community's internal network of 18 kilometres of trails and cycling lanes is designed for movement within the community rather than commuting out of it.
Service charges vary by neighbourhood and property tier, with mansion and waterfront categories carrying higher rates than townhouses. Speak to a K Estates advisor for current figures on the specific sub community you are considering.
