Highlights
About Majan
Majan is a mixed-use development in Dubailand, set along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) and spread over roughly 15.6 million sq. ft. It was developed by Tameer Investment Holding and Mozn Real Estate Company, and its masterplan is built around gardens, fountains and public squares connecting a cluster of low- to mid-rise residential towers, with ground-floor retail and a small amount of commercial land woven through the community. Rather than a single master developer delivering every building, Majan functions more like a mixed-developer district — towers from Binghatti, Samana, Tiger Properties and several smaller builders sit alongside one another, which gives buyers real choice but also means build quality and finish vary noticeably from block to block.
Majan in a nutshell
Majan suits buyers and tenants who want genuinely affordable freehold apartments in newer buildings, don’t need a Metro connection, and are comfortable driving everywhere. It has built its identity around being one of Dubai’s lower-priced apartment entry points with modern, amenity-fitted towers rather than the older walk-up stock found in nearby budget communities — and it sits a few minutes from IMG Worlds of Adventure, a genuine lifestyle draw most affordable Dubailand communities don’t have. It is not a finished, mature neighbourhood yet: a meaningful share of the community is still under construction, with several towers handing over between 2026 and 2027.

Neighbourhood
Property types and sub-communities
Majan is overwhelmingly an apartment community — studios, 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom units, most with fitted kitchens and some with maid’s rooms, balconies or powder rooms. Notable buildings and clusters include Jade Tower, Al Rabia Tower, Binghatti Titania, Binghatti Vintage, Binghatti Skyflame (Towers 1 and 2), Bottega Nove, Tulip Oasis, Sherena Residence and Vincitore Wellness Estate, alongside newer launches such as SAMANA Barari Views. A smaller townhouse product exists too — Maya Townhouse by Andalusia Courtyard is bringing 30 townhouses in 1-, 2- and 3-bedroom layouts, a genuinely uncommon format for this part of Dubailand. The Haven by Meraki Developers is positioned as an amenity-heavy project with pools, shared workspaces and children’s play areas, and Samaya Hotel Apartments Dubai by Tiger Properties adds a branded, fully furnished hotel-apartment option with an indoor pool and outdoor terrace. Ground-floor commercial space, along with some standalone commercial plots and mixed-use land, is also part of the masterplan.
Freehold status — who can buy
Majan, as part of Dubailand, is registered with the Dubai Land Department as a freehold community open to all nationalities, under the framework set out in Regulation No. 3 of 2006 and the designations added since. As with any Dubai freehold purchase, confirm a specific unit’s registration status via DLD or the Dubai REST app before signing.
Golden Visa eligibility
The property-investor Golden Visa requires a Dubai Land Department valuation of at least AED 2,000,000. Majan’s average apartment prices sit well below that for most unit types — Bayut’s listings-based averages run from AED 661,000 for a studio to AED 2,098,000 for a 3-bed (see the sales trends below) — so only larger, higher-value 3-bedroom units are likely to qualify individually, and even those sit close to the threshold rather than comfortably above it. Buyers relying on this route should get a specific unit’s DLD valuation confirmed before assuming eligibility, and should not assume a typical Majan studio or 1-bed will qualify on its own.
Handover and completion status
Majan is a genuine mix of completed and under-construction stock. Buildings such as Al Rabia Tower, Jade Tower, Tulip Oasis and Vincitore Wellness Estate are delivered and trading hands — recent DLD-recorded sales include a 2-bed at Tulip Oasis 10 and studios at Vincitore Wellness Estate Tower A. Alongside that, a substantial off-plan pipeline is still under construction: Binghatti Skyflame 1 and 2 are due to hand over in Q4 2027, Bottega Nove and SAMANA Barari Views 2 in Q3 2027, and Sherena Residence 2 in Q3 2026. Buyers should expect ongoing construction activity in parts of the community for at least another two years, even as the earlier-delivered towers read as established.
Sales trends and price per square foot
Bayut’s Majan area guide, built from asking-price listings over the trailing 12 months, puts average apartment sale prices at AED 661,000 (studio), AED 953,000 (1-bed), AED 1,453,000 (2-bed) and AED 2,098,000 (3-bed). These are asking prices from live listings, not DLD-confirmed transacted prices. Fidu could not source a Majan-specific price-per-square-foot figure from a dated, DLD-derived market report — the community did not appear in Bayut’s citywide Sales Market Report H1 2026, which covers larger, more established areas. Treat the figures above as a listing-price guide, not a transaction record.
Rental trends and demand drivers
The same Bayut area guide puts average asking rents at AED 60,500 (studio), AED 72,000 (1-bed), AED 92,000 (2-bed) and AED 126,000 (3-bed), based on listings over the trailing 12 months. Demand is driven largely by tenants priced out of pricier, more established Dubailand neighbours such as Al Barari and Arabian Ranches, plus renters drawn to newer, amenity-fitted towers (pools, gyms, covered parking) at a lower price point than comparable new-build stock elsewhere in the city. Majan’s own two small malls and proximity to IMG Worlds of Adventure add everyday convenience and a genuine lifestyle hook that pure dormitory communities lack.
Gross rental yield
Bayut’s own ROI calculation for Majan, based on user searches over the trailing 12 months, puts apartment yields at 6.60% (studio), 6.32% (1-bed), 6.08% (2-bed) and 6.77% (3-bed). This is a listings-and-search-based estimate, not a DLD-confirmed transaction yield, and should be treated accordingly — but it does sit in a healthy band for Dubai’s affordable-apartment segment.
Service charges — what you’ll actually pay
Not published here. Fidu could not verify a current, Majan-specific service charge rate against a named, dated source; exact rates vary by building and are disclosed per property on Mollak, RERA’s official service-charge platform, which is the correct place to check before buying.
Transport and parking
Majan has no Dubai Metro station. Residents typically rely on taxis, ride-hailing apps or their own car; per Bayut’s own area guide, the nearest bus stop is located in the neighbouring community of Liwan rather than inside Majan itself. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) runs directly past the community and is the main artery in and out. All buildings carry dedicated parking, and open parking lots serve visitors.
Schools and nurseries
There is no school physically inside Majan’s boundaries. The nearest is Dunecrest American School L.L.C, roughly a 3-minute drive away in neighbouring Al Barari — an American/US-IB curriculum school teaching Pre-Primary through Grade 12. Per KHDA’s own School Details page, Dunecrest was rated Good overall for 2023–2024, with Good ratings for both Wellbeing and Inclusion, and has held Good ratings across all three of its inspections to date (2021–2022, 2022–2023 and 2023–2024). Odyssey Nursery, also about a 3-minute drive away, follows the Reggio Emilia approach for children aged 3 months to 6 years. The Aquila School and Gems FirstPoint School are also nearby, though Fidu did not independently verify their current KHDA ratings for this guide.
Amenities, healthcare and everyday services
Majan has two shopping malls of its own: Remal Mall, with a clinic, supermarket, spa and dining options, and Midtown Central Majan, which carries around 30 retail and dining outlets. Everyday grocery needs are covered by Hopinz Supermarket, Jef The Grocer, Al Majan Grocery, Carrefour and Viva Supermarket. For healthcare, Dr. Kamkar Medical & Physiotherapy Centre and Health Avenue Polyclinic operate within Majan, with Emirates Clinic and Cosmo Secret Medical Centre nearby; residents needing hospital-level care typically drive further into central Dubai. Places of worship include Umm Al Qura Masjid and Masjid Hussain Al Bahri within Majan, with Dubai City Church, St Mary’s Catholic Church and Guru Nanak Darbar all within a 20–22 minute drive.
Lifestyle
Dining and retail
Casual dining inside the community includes Zeeko Restaurant, Purple Fork, Coco and Orchid and Daddy’s Smoke House, spread across Remal Mall, Midtown Central Majan and ground-floor retail in the residential towers. For a bigger retail trip, Cityland Mall and Dubai Outlet Mall are both about a 14-minute drive away.
Landmarks and things to do
IMG Worlds of Adventure — billed as the world’s largest indoor theme park — sits roughly 6 minutes away and is genuinely one of Majan’s strongest lifestyle differentiators versus other affordable Dubailand communities. Global Village, with its seasonal pavilions, restaurants and entertainment, is also within easy reach, as are Al Habtoor Polo Resort and Club and Al Marmoom Heritage Village. The Els Club, about 15 minutes away, adds a golf course plus bar and restaurant venues for residents wanting an evening out.
Outdoor space
Outdoor amenity inside Majan itself is mostly building-level — rooftop and podium pools, gyms and children’s play areas are standard across the newer towers, and the masterplan’s gardens, fountains and public squares provide some shared green space. For larger open-air recreation, residents typically head to neighbouring Al Barari or The Els Club’s golf course; the nearest beach, Jumeirah Beach, is about a 30-minute drive.
Honest downsides — what to know before you commit
There is no Metro station and the nearest bus stop sits in a neighbouring community rather than inside Majan — car ownership or regular ride-hailing spend is close to essential. A meaningful share of the community is still under construction, with towers such as Binghatti Skyflame 1 and 2, Bottega Nove and SAMANA Barari Views 2 handing over between mid-2026 and late 2027, so buyers in already-delivered buildings should expect nearby construction noise and dust for a while yet. Because Majan is built out by several different developers rather than one master builder, quality and finish vary meaningfully between towers — inspect the specific building and developer’s track record rather than assuming a uniform “Majan standard.” There is no school inside the community itself, so families are looking at a short daily drive regardless of which building they choose. And the yield and price figures quoted throughout this guide are Bayut’s listings-and-search-based estimates, not confirmed DLD transaction data, so they should be treated as a starting point rather than a guarantee.
Location
How Majan compares to International City and Dubai Production City (IMPZ)
Majan’s closest positioning comparison is International City — both are freehold, budget-oriented apartment communities without a Metro station, and both are consistently cited among Dubai’s most affordable places to buy or rent. International City’s stock is older, built from the mid-2000s in low-rise, country-themed clusters, many without lifts, and it wins on sheer entry-level price. Majan’s towers are newer — mostly delivered or under construction from the 2020s onward — so buyers generally get a lift, a pool and a gym as standard, at a somewhat higher price point than International City’s oldest blocks. Against Dubai Production City (IMPZ), the comparison is more about scale and identity: IMPZ is larger and more established, with a media- and production-business identity layered onto its residential towers, while Majan is smaller, newer, and leans on IMG Worlds of Adventure as its defining lifestyle landmark rather than a business-park identity. Choose International City for the lowest possible entry price in an established, fully built-out community; choose Dubai Production City for a larger, more mature apartment market with a longer resale history; choose Majan for newer buildings, stronger listed yields, and proximity to IMG Worlds of Adventure, accepting that parts of the community are still under construction.
Getting to and from Majan
Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) is Majan’s main route in and out, and it runs the length of Dubailand. Dubai Silicon Oasis is about a 10-minute drive, Arabian Ranches around 14 minutes, and Cityland Mall and Dubai Outlet Mall also about 14 minutes away. Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall are roughly a 22-minute drive, and Dubai International Airport is about 24 minutes away. Jumeirah Beach is the furthest of the commonly cited landmarks, at around 30 minutes. All of these are car journeys; there is no rail option from inside the community, and the figures above are the typical drive times published on Bayut’s own Majan area guide rather than a separately named traffic dataset.
Is Majan a good investment?
On Bayut’s search-based figures, Majan’s apartment yields — 6.08% to 6.77% depending on unit size — sit in a healthy band for Dubai’s affordable-apartment segment, with 3-bed units and studios showing the strongest returns. That is a listings-and-search estimate, not a DLD-confirmed transaction yield, so treat it as a starting point rather than a guarantee. The investment case rests on genuinely low entry prices, newer building stock than most comparably priced Dubailand communities, and a real lifestyle draw in IMG Worlds of Adventure. The counterweight is supply: a sizeable pipeline of off-plan units from Binghatti, Samana and other developers is due to land through 2027, and how the market absorbs that additional stock will matter for rent growth and resale pricing in the next few years. Buyers should get current, DLD-verified pricing for a specific building before treating any online estimate — from any source — as a number to act on.

Sources and methodology
Majan did not appear in Bayut’s citywide Sales Market Report H1 2026 (which is DLD-transaction-based but covers larger, more established areas), so the price, rent and yield figures above come instead from Bayut’s own Majan area guide — asking-price, asking-rent and search-based ROI tables built from live listings and user searches over the trailing 12 months, not confirmed transactions. Fidu could not verify a current, named, dated service-charge figure for Majan specifically, so that section is omitted rather than estimated, per Fidu’s standing rule that a missing section is preferable to an invented number. Fidu also independently verified Dunecrest American School’s rating directly on KHDA’s own School Details page rather than through an aggregator.
