Masterplanned by Nakheel
Designed with a classical radial layout, JVC features a central hub from which roads extend outward like rays.

Nakheel, a renowned Arab developer, is the driving force behind the creation of significant swathes of the village circle. Nakheel has masterminded numerous developments, shaping the landscape and crafting Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) into a haven of luxury real estate. Although that luxury has since been surpassed by other Dubai real estate projects, investors still find it provides a luxurious lifestyle – especially as asking prices here remain notably lower than in Dubai Marina and other upscale areas.
Indeed, Jumeirah Village Circle holds the title of the 3rd highest selling residential area across the emirate. In this ranking, JVC is only behind Dubai Marina and Downtown areas.
