Palm Springs by Nakheel
Why this project.
Why now.
Palm Springs is Nakheel's new masterplan in Jebel Ali, beside Sheikh Zayed Road and Palm Jebel Ali: 382 hectares planned for about 50,000 residents. Eleven Aliso neighbourhoods of townhouses and four Rancho neighbourhoods of villas wrap around Canyon Park, a continuous park of streams, ponds and small sandy beaches.
The park leads to two clubs. The Thousand Palms Country Club has a beach pool, two restaurants and a wellness centre; the Silver Spur Racquet Club has clay courts, studios and a lap pool. Palm Jebel Ali is 14 minutes away by Nakheel's drive times.
Nakheel's record next door shows how launch buyers have done. Jebel Ali Village villas launched from about AED 4.0M to 4.4M in 2021, and ready 4BR villas there resold at a median AED 8.40M over the past year.
Townhouses start at AED 3.8M and villas at AED 7.0M, subject to availability. You pay 60% while it is built and 40% at handover, estimated for October 2030, so a large part of the price stays in your hands while the community rises.
Reasons we
recommend this.
Jebel Ali Village villas launched from about AED 4.0M to 4.4M in November 2021. Ready 4BR villas there resold at a median AED 8.40M over the 12 months to 10 November 2026.
A 4BR Rancho villa has 4,041 sq ft built-up from AED 7.0M. Ready 4BR villas in Murooj Al Furjan resold at a median AED 7.55M for 3,471 sq ft.
10% on booking and 50% in six payments to May 2029. The last 40% is due at handover, estimated for October 2030.
Canyon Park runs through the community with streams, ponds and small beaches, and its paths lead to a country club with a beach pool and a racquet club with clay courts.
14 minutes to Palm Jebel Ali and 23 to Al Maktoum International by Nakheel's drive times. Nakheel calls Palm Springs the gateway to its second Palm.
Nakheel, the developer of Palm Jumeirah, has been part of Dubai Holding since March 2024. Dubai Holding holds over AED 500bn of assets.
Jebel Ali.
What we actually think.
Palm Springs sits beside Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Maktoum Airport Street, between the Palm Jebel Ali road and the coast. By car, Nakheel gives 14 minutes to Palm Jebel Ali, 20 to Bluewaters Island, 23 to Al Maktoum International and 25 to Palm Jumeirah.
Nakheel's plan shows a future metro station by the community. Separately, on 10 November 2026 Dubai's Executive Council approved the Route 2020 extension from Expo 2020 to the DWC West Terminal, about 3 km with two stations, to open in 2031.
Dubai is building along its southern coast. Palm Jebel Ali covers 13.4 sq km with 91 km of beachfront, planned for about 35,000 families. Jebel Ali Port and the Jebel Ali Free Zone account for 36% of Dubai's GDP and more than one million jobs, and Al Maktoum International's first phase is on course to open in 2032.
For an owner, that is a family home where the city is still adding beaches and jobs around you, with Palm Jebel Ali, Bluewaters and the new airport all within 25 minutes by Nakheel's drive times.
Nakheel.
The track record matters.
Nakheel built Palm Jumeirah and villa communities that Dubai families know by name: Jumeirah Park, Jumeirah Islands, Nad Al Sheba Villas, Murooj Al Furjan and Tilal Al Furjan. Jebel Ali Village is in handover.
Since March 2024 Nakheel has been part of Dubai Holding, which holds over AED 500bn of assets and contributed 13.5% of Dubai's GDP in 2025. Nakheel sold AED 24.5bn of property in 2025, fourth in Dubai by value, and first for homes above AED 15M.
Its launches sell fast: Murooj Al Furjan's first 217 villas sold in about four hours in May 2021, and Palm Jebel Ali's first villa phase sold out within hours in September 2023. Under Dubai Law No. 8 of 2007, payments for the homes go into the project's escrow account, and Law No. 19 of 2020 protects off-plan buyers.

We recommend
this case.
Palm Springs gives you a family home by a park in Jebel Ali, beside Palm Jebel Ali, from the developer whose Jebel Ali Village villas launched from about AED 4.0M to 4.4M in 2021 and resold at a median AED 8.40M over the past year.
The 4BR Rancho villa from AED 7.0M comes in at a lower price per sq ft than the ready 4BR villa medians in Murooj Al Furjan, Tilal Al Furjan and Jebel Ali Village, and Canyon Park and the two clubs come with it.
You pay 60% while it is built and 40% at handover, estimated for October 2030. Nakheel is taking paid EOIs now for the first release: book a short call and you leave with the plans for your home type and what you pay on each date.
