Situated in the crystal blue waters of the Persian Gulf and 4 km off the coast of Dubai, The World, also known as The World Islands, is a man-made archipelago featuring an impressive collection of 300 private islands that have been shaped and grouped together to resemble a map of the world.
A visionary venture by Nakheel Properties, The World's artificial islands are divided into four categories including dream resorts, estate homes, private homes, and community islands. These exclusive islands will cater to those looking for the finest in contemporary island living.
Although briefly halted by the 2008 global financial crisis, progress in The World has been revitalized by the ongoing expansion of “The Heart of Europe,” a six-island cluster development first announced in 2009. This particular project will feature a vast assortment of sumptuous restaurants and luxury resorts, all enclosed by half-sunken floating homes named 'Floating Seahorses.'
With islands created uniquely for exclusivity and privacy, The World represents an unparalleled beachfront lifestyle in Dubai. With luxurious homes meticulously designed to the last detail, residents can enjoy life at its fullest within their own private island. Watching beautiful sunsets by the beach while enjoying the soothing sounds of the crashing ocean waves would be the norm for both residents and visitors.
Residents can access neighboring islands by air or marine transport, allowing them to explore the immense variety of life conveniences available within easy distance. They will be afforded with several gourmet restaurants, chic retail venues, and plush resorts offering five-star amenities and overlooking spectacular views of the glistening sea and the luxuriant surroundings.
