Aquamarine Beach Residences

Aquamarine Beach Residences: one roof per tower, plus a fourth over the shared podium

Aquamarine Beach Residences consists of just three towers, none of which rises above nine occupied floors. Sobha Realty has set them on a shared podium that includes a ground floor, a level of residences and an accessible roof. Each tower also has its own rooftop. The project sits on Siniya Island, the stretch of land in Umm Al Quwain that the developer has spent several years turning into a full district, complete with a golf course, a marina and a beach. Handover is scheduled for 30 June 2028, under the freehold regime open to foreign buyers. The project stands out for its orientation: the facades face the golf course on one side and the natural beach on the other.

Seven to nine floors, four usable rooftops

The site plan follows a simple logic. Three volumes of slightly different heights, ranging from seven to nine residential levels, rise from a common base. These staggered heights keep the towers from blocking each other's views of the golf course and the shoreline. In total, the complex offers four landscaped rooftops: one per tower plus one on the podium. For residents, this multiplies elevated vantage points without resorting to a high-rise building, something rarely seen on the island. The podium itself also holds residences, positioned closer to the gardens and pools.

One to three bedrooms, floor-to-ceiling glazing

The unit range is limited to one, two and three-bedroom apartments. There are no studios or penthouses on the floor plans, which points the project toward settled households rather than short-term, budget-driven rentals. Interiors rely on neutral tones and understated materials. Windows run from floor to ceiling and frame the waterfront. The three-bedroom units target families looking for a second or primary home within reasonable reach of Dubai. The one-bedroom units are aimed more at investors betting on the region's future tourism demand.

Two pools, a beach and kayaking

The residence offers two pools of different kinds. One is an infinity pool, the other a lagoon-style pool, larger and shallower, suited to children. Together they complement direct access to a natural beach where the brochure lists snorkeling, diving and kitesurfing. The amenities list also includes kayaking, an open-air cinema, multi-sport courts, jogging tracks and a shared gym. Cafes and restaurants at the foot of the towers round out the offering. The island's 18-hole golf course is accessible from the residence.

A 1.7km bridge and Al Marjan ten minutes away

Siniya Island connects to the mainland via a 1.7-kilometre bridge. Sobha states the drive to Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, home to the UAE's first casino resort, takes ten minutes. Sharjah is roughly 30 minutes away and Dubai 50 minutes, according to the developer and outside peak hours. The island still holds pockets of natural habitat: mangroves, flamingos, gazelles, oryx and turtles are among the species recorded there. Sobha's master plan includes a shopping mall, a retail boulevard, a yacht club, a marina and a helipad. Not all of these facilities have been delivered yet, and their timeline will shape neighborhood life in the early years.

June 2028, an early spot on the island's calendar

With handover set for the end of June 2028, Aquamarine ranks among the first handovers planned on Siniya Island. It lines up with the Siniya Island Villas and comes three months ahead of Florine Beach Residences. Bayside Marina Residences is not expected until March 2029. Sobha Realty points to its vertically integrated model as a selling point: design, engineering, joinery and part of the materials are produced in-house. The developer has already applied this approach at Sobha Hartland and Sobha One in Dubai, where on-time delivery serves as a commercial argument. For a buyer, the 2028 date also represents a bet on how far the island and its services will have developed by then.
