Eltiera Heights is an Ellington Properties tower at Jumeirah Islands, Dubai. It is a single residential building of 355 homes, running from one bedroom apartments of 820 square feet up to two full floor penthouses of just over 6,000 square feet. Handover is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2028 and the tenure is freehold.
Jumeirah Islands is one of the quieter established addresses in New Dubai. It is a low rise lagoon community of villas, so a 37 storey tower on its edge is unusual and the upper floors look over water, the Emirates Hills golf courses, Jumeirah Lake Towers, the Marina skyline and Uptown Dubai.

About Jumeirah Islands and Ellington Properties
Jumeirah Islands is a Nakheel master community of 736 villas set across 46 islands in a system of lakes, completed in the mid 2000s. It sits between Jumeirah Lake Towers and The Gardens, with Sheikh Zayed Road and the JLT metro station a few minutes away. It has almost no apartment stock, which is what makes a tower on its perimeter interesting.
Ellington Properties has delivered across Downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Village Circle, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Hills Estate. The house style is consistent: art led lobbies, heavy amenity decks and interiors done in house rather than outsourced.
What the factsheet does not tell you
Ellington does not state whether the published sizes are built up area or suite area. That distinction moves the price per square foot by a wide margin and it is the single most misread number in Dubai property. Ask for the size basis in writing before you sign.
The completion date and the service charge are both marked anticipated by the developer, not committed. Treat them as estimates.
There is no published price list in the launch pack, so any starting price you see quoted on a portal is a third party estimate and not an Ellington figure.
