South Bay Phase 6 is the final plus most prestigious residential expansion within the renowned South Bay master community in Dubai South. By Dubai South Properties, this particular phase is a direct response to the massive demand seen in earlier sold-out stages. It showcases an elite selection of 4 and 5-bedroom townhouses and semi-detached villas, alongside a limited collection of 5, 6, and 7-bedroom ultra-luxury waterfront mansions. The community is strategically designed around a breathtaking 3-kilometer crystal lagoon, providing residents with a swimmable coastal lifestyle in the heart of the desert.
The design of Phase 6 emphasizes “limitless living,” with residences spanning G+2 floors and showcasing rooftop sky gardens, glass handrails, and high-end marble finishes. Residents tend to enjoy a unique mix of privacy and social connectivity, with homes located along a lushly landscaped 3km waterfront promenade. Positioned just minutes from the Al Maktoum International Airport and the Etihad Rail Network, South Bay Phase 6 represents the pinnacle of luxury in a district destined to become Dubai’s new economic center.
