The next chapter
is coastal.
UNHID Developments is preparing its first island address.
Boutique by conviction
UNHID's story began long before its name. Over six decades in Dubai, the family group behind the company has helped shape the city's landmarks, contributing to the creation, construction, and fitout of Burj Al Arab, Armani Hotel Dubai, Atlantis The Royal, and Address Hotels and Resorts, along with royal palaces and private mansions.
Today UNHID Developments carries that legacy into bespoke residential development in the UAE and the United States. The portfolio stays deliberately small: low density over volume, privacy over spectacle, and homes delivered turnkey, finished to the last detail before a key changes hands. Fewer projects, each given everything.
Something worth the wait
UNHID Developments is preparing to launch a development on Dubai Islands, set to be among the most notable on the islands. It has been announced as Samaa by UNHID, Dubai Islands, and that is all we are saying for now.
We unveil work when it is ready, not before. The full picture follows at the right moment, and those who register their interest will see it first.
An island setting, minutes from the old city
Dubai Islands is one of the last coastal districts in the city still taking shape: beaches, marinas, and open water along the Deira shoreline, a short drive from Dubai International Airport. It suits the way we build, and we have written a short guide to the area for anyone weighing it up.
