Samana Portside
A private pool in every home
One and two bedroom residences at Downtown Jebel Ali, directly on Sheikh Zayed Road and three minutes from an existing Metro station. Every apartment has its own private pool, and every layout converts to add a bedroom.
From AED 1,099,000
Why this location
On Sheikh Zayed Road, at the Metro
Downtown Jebel Ali sits at the far end of the Sheikh Zayed Road corridor, where the price per square foot is still well below the central districts.
Three minutes to the Metro
The station is already built and running, not planned. For a landlord that is the difference between a tenant who needs a car and one who does not, and it shows up directly in rentability.
Direct Sheikh Zayed Road access
The building has direct access onto Sheikh Zayed Road, which puts the length of the city on one road and makes the commute predictable in both directions.
An entry price for the corridor
A one bedroom starts at AED 1,099,000. On a Sheikh Zayed Road address with a private pool, that is a considerably lower entry point than the equivalent further into the city.
The homes
Two layouts, both convertible
Every apartment has a private pool, and every layout is designed to convert to add a bedroom. Unit areas have not yet been released by the developer and are confirmed in writing on enquiry.

Two payment plans
Both plans run on one per cent monthly instalments. The difference is whether you provide post-dated cheques, and what that does to your deposit.
With post-dated cheques
10 per cent down, 5 per cent at month six, 5 per cent at month twelve, then 1 per cent monthly across 80 months. Bank cheques are required.
Without cheques
15 per cent down, 5 per cent at month six, 5 per cent at month twelve, then 1 per cent monthly across 75 months. No bank cheques needed.
Which one suits you
The cheque plan halves your upfront deposit; the alternative costs 5 per cent more on day one but avoids issuing cheques, which matters if you are buying from overseas. We will walk you through both.
Straight answer
Is Portside right for you?
It suits you if
- You want a private pool in the apartment itself, which is unusual at this price.
- You want a long instalment runway. One per cent a month across 75 to 80 months is a gentle schedule.
- You value a working Metro station over a planned one.
- You like that the layouts convert, so the home can gain a bedroom later.
Look elsewhere if
- You need the keys sooner. Handover is Q3 2029.
- You need to know the exact square footage before you commit. Areas are not yet released.
- You want a central Dubai address. Downtown Jebel Ali is at the far end of the corridor.
- You want a villa or townhouse. Every home here is an apartment.

How it works
Registering before launch
Portside is a new launch and is open for expressions of interest, currently at AED 40,000. Registering places you in the queue so you can choose from the full range of units rather than what remains after launch day.
The building is ground plus three podium levels plus nine floors. Because every apartment carries a private pool, the layouts and their positions in the building vary more than in a conventional tower, so unit choice matters here.
We will tell you honestly whether a unit is worth queueing for. Our advice costs you nothing, because the developer pays us.
