About The Project
Cheval Blanc Maison at Naïa Island Dubai
Cheval Blanc Maison is planned on Naïa Island Dubai as an off plan beachfront community, bringing the Cheval Blanc name to the UAE through Shamal Holding. Cheval Blanc Maison in Naïa Island Dubai is being sold on rarity more than scale, a small number of homes, a quiet shoreline, and the kind of setting where the sea is the main view in every direction.
The inventory is fixed and simple. There will be 30 suites and 40 private pool villas, so just 70 residences in total. Homes are planned in 4 bedroom, 5 bedroom, and 6 bedroom layouts, with unit sizes stated from 3,500 to 48,000 square feet. The payment plan is listed as 60/40 and handover is stated for 2029. The mix gives two different ways to live on the island, suites for buyers who want a more managed, lock up and leave feel, and villas for those who want total privacy with a pool at home.

The lifestyle story is built around what sits on the island itself. Private beach access is specifically mentioned, so the beach is not a shared public stretch, it is part of the resident experience. Open green spaces are also listed, aimed at outdoor time and a calmer pace between the homes. The project also includes a private marina, described as a dedicated marina with yacht and boat facilities, which fits an island address where arriving by water feels natural rather than unusual.
Dining is treated as a headline feature, with fine dining referenced alongside broader dining options, and the notes also mention a spa as part of the wider offer. The tone is clear, hospitality and lifestyle are not extras here, they are central to the concept. That is also why the development is framed as “complete”, beach, green space, dining, spa, and marina, all in one setting, with the aim of keeping residents within the island rhythm rather than sending them elsewhere for every plan.
Exclusivity is backed by numbers rather than vague language. Thirty suites and forty villas is intentionally low density, and that tends to shape the feel of a place, quieter shared spaces, fewer people on the shoreline at any one time, and a more controlled atmosphere. Sea views are described as uninterrupted, and the architecture is described as elegant, supporting a look that feels refined instead of showy.
The project is also positioned as branded residences, with Cheval Blanc as the brand layer and Shamal Holding named as the developer. Investment potential is mentioned as high ROI potential, but no figures are provided in your data, so it is best treated as positioning language rather than a promised return. The stronger, verifiable value points remain the limited inventory, the private pool villa offering, the private beach access, and the marina and spa elements that make the island feel self contained.
Overall, Cheval Blanc Maison in Naïa Island Dubai is being presented as beachfront living built around privacy, low density, and a full lifestyle set on the island. With 4 to 6 bedroom homes, sizes up to 48,000 square feet, a 60/40 plan, and 2029 handover, it is aimed at buyers who want a rare coastal address in Dubai where the experience is shaped by the beach, the marina, and the quiet space between the residences.

About Community
Umm Suqeim
Naïa Island Dubai is presented as a prestigious beachfront setting, where the pace is meant to be slower and the views are meant to be open. Cheval Blanc Maison in Naïa Island Dubai is planned to take advantage of that with private beach access and uninterrupted sea views as part of the daily backdrop.
The area story is centred on on island living. A private marina is listed, supporting yacht and boat facilities, and open green spaces are mentioned as landscaped areas meant for outdoor time and wellbeing. Dining is positioned as part of everyday life, with fine dining and additional dining options referenced, alongside a spa and resort style features.
Because the project is limited to 30 suites and 40 private pool villas, the community is framed as deliberately low density. That matches the wider island pitch, privacy, space, and a more complete coastal lifestyle without crowding. The overall picture is a small, high end island address where beach access, marina living, and hospitality led amenities sit at the centre.

Common Questions
FAQ
The Developer
Shamal Holding
Shamal Holding is a Dubai based diversified investment firm with interests spanning real estate, hospitality, lifestyle destinations, private and public markets and strategic investments. The company increasingly presents itself simply as Shamal, although Shamal Holding remains the widely recognised corporate name.
Unlike a conventional residential developer, Shamal takes different roles depending on the asset. It owns and curates major destinations, invests in real estate, develops selected master plans and works with specialist development companies, architects and hospitality groups on individual schemes. Understanding these distinctions is important when considering its property activity.
Abdulla Binhabtoor serves as Chief Executive Officer and leads a strategy centred on long term investment in assets that contribute to Dubai's wider growth. A reliable public founding date is not consistently stated, so its history is better viewed through the destinations and investments it currently controls.
Dubai is the centre of Shamal's real estate activity. Its most prominent asset is Dubai Harbour, the large seafront district positioned between Palm Jumeirah and Bluewaters Island. Shamal is the owner and curator of the destination, which incorporates marinas, cruise facilities, hospitality, residences, restaurants and leisure infrastructure.
Its property interests also include Nad Al Sheba Gardens, Cherrywoods, Al Meida Villas and Eleven Villas, alongside retail and lifestyle destinations such as Kite Beach and The Square. These assets show that Shamal's strategy extends beyond homes into places where residential, hospitality and leisure uses work together.
Nad Al Sheba Gardens demonstrates the company's investment model particularly well. Shamal owns the master community, while Meraas is responsible for its development. It would therefore be inaccurate to attribute the villas and townhouses solely to Shamal as the construction developer.
More recently, the firm's focus has moved further into super prime waterfront real estate and branded residences. Naïa Island Dubai, Baccarat Hotel and Residences and The Dubai Beach EDITION illustrate a strategy built around scarce locations and established international hospitality names.
Shamal Holding Projects in Dubai
Dubai Harbour is central to Shamal's current real estate strategy. As owner and curator, the company is investing in infrastructure, hospitality, restaurants, marina facilities and new residential concepts intended to establish the district as a complete coastal destination.
Dubai Harbour Residences is an important part of that expansion. The low rise beachfront collection includes apartments and penthouses designed by Nikken Sekkei. Shamal is the owner behind the destination and project, while H&H Development provides specialist development expertise. The residences are under construction rather than completed.
The relationship with H&H also extends to Baccarat Hotel and Residences Dubai. Shamal brought the Baccarat concept to Dubai and remains the investment force behind the scheme, while H&H Development is the property developer. Studio Libeskind designed the architecture and 1508 London is responsible for the interiors. The Downtown Dubai scheme now comprises a hotel and two towers of Baccarat branded residences.
A similar structure applies at The Dubai Beach EDITION. Shamal partnered with Marriott International to introduce the first EDITION branded residences in the Middle East at Dubai Harbour. H&H is developing the property, with architecture by RSHP. Completion is planned for 2029. The distinction between Shamal as investment and destination partner, Marriott as hospitality brand and H&H as developer is important when describing the scheme.
Cheval Blanc Maison at Naïa Island Dubai represents a more direct development role. Shamal is creating Naïa Island as an ultra low density private island master plan off the Jumeirah coastline. The destination will host the Middle East's first Cheval Blanc Maison, operated under LVMH's hospitality brand, together with private villas, suites and a limited collection of beachfront residences.
Early works are under way, with the island expected to open in 2029. Naïa illustrates how Shamal is moving beyond investment in individual buildings towards creating highly controlled residential and hospitality environments.
Shamal has also announced a new low rise residential and lifestyle district on the former Dubai Zoo site in Jumeirah 1. The planned community comprises only 90 residences and places greater emphasis on landscaping, heritage and neighbourhood scale. It remains an announced project rather than completed stock.
Taken together, Shamal Holding's real estate activity is best understood through ownership, long term investment and placemaking rather than volume construction. Its strongest current themes are Dubai waterfront property, limited residential collections and partnerships with internationally recognised hospitality brands.
