Creek Waters 2

Fifty storeys and a single penthouse at the top

Creek Waters 2 rises 50 residential storeys above two basement levels, a ground floor and a podium. The verticality is clear-cut, but the scheme keeps its most distinctive feature for the very top: a single five bedroom penthouse crowns the tower with an unbroken view over the Creek. Below it, Emaar Properties stacks 1 to 4 bedroom apartments, and at the base of the building sit three bedroom townhouses facing the promenade. Together this makes for a fairly unusual massing at Dubai Creek Harbour, where most neighbouring towers keep to more modest heights. Handover is set for December 2027.

Townhouses at the base of a 50-storey tower

Combining a tall tower with townhouses on the same plot is still uncommon in this market. Creek Waters 2 does exactly that, placing three bedroom townhouses directly on the promenade, below the apartment floors. These homes come with ground-level access and an orientation that keeps them visually separate from the tower's activity. For a buyer who wants the space of a house without leaving the Creek waterfront, it sits somewhere between an apartment and a villa. The vertical units, meanwhile, cover the full family range from one to four bedrooms, with layouts set to frame the water view.

A resort-style podium above the promenade

The bulk of the amenities sit on the podium, laid out as a leisure deck suspended above the retail below. It includes an infinity pool lined with a sundeck, a separate children's pool and an adjoining play area. The gym opens directly onto the pool, and lounge areas face the Creek. Barbecue spots round out the outdoor offering, set among landscaped lawns. One level down, residents can reach the restaurants, cafes and shops lining the promenade without leaving the complex.

Ten minutes from Dubai International Airport

Creek Waters 2's location puts it ten minutes from Dubai International Airport, a real plus for residents who travel often. Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Mall are a quarter of an hour away, and Al Maktoum International Airport is roughly a forty-minute drive. Locally, Creek Marina, the Harbour Promenade and Central Park are all a short walk from the building. Dubai Creek Harbour keeps filling in year after year, with marinas, parks and a network of pedestrian promenades that shape daily life in the district. The project sits within this already well-established fabric rather than in an area still being built out.

90% during construction, 10% on handover

The payment plan follows a familiar Emaar pattern: 90% paid during the construction phase, then 10% on handover. This structure requires sustained cash flow before the keys are handed over, with no post-handover instalments. It suits buyers with available liquidity or financing timed to the construction schedule. The property is sold freehold, which gives foreign investors full ownership rights. With a December 2027 deadline, the construction timeline stays reasonable for a project of this height.

Emaar, the long-standing operator of Dubai Creek Harbour

Dubai Creek Harbour is a master plan that Emaar Properties has developed and run for years, giving the developer full control over its immediate surroundings. Creek Waters 2 lands in a district the same company has designed, serviced and gradually filled with towers, retail and green space. The architecture stays within the contemporary style Emaar applies across the area, with facades aimed at blending into the waterfront setting. Interior finishes rely on carefully chosen materials and light-filled layouts that favour open volumes. For an investor, the coherence of the district and the developer's delivery track record matter as much as the building itself.
