Emirates Golf Club
Just minutes away, home to the Majlis and Faldo courses, this was the first grass golf course in the region, established in 1988.
Emirates Hills is an opulent gated community developed by Emaar Properties, established in 2003 as part of the wider Emirates Living master plan alongside The Meadows, The Springs and The Lakes. The community draws its inspiration from Beverly Hills, and was among the first freehold areas in Dubai, allowing international buyers full ownership rights from the outset.
Emirates Hills master plan divides the community into distinct sub-communities, including Montgomerie Hills, Dyaar Al Hambra, Montgomerie Maisonettes and Signature Villas. Instead of offering fixed-layout homes, much of Emirates Hills was originally sold as undeveloped land, giving owners the freedom to design and build fully custom mansions on plots ranging from 12,000 to 45,000 sq. ft.
Emirates Hills villas typically include private pools, staff quarters, expansive study rooms and multiple storage areas, reflecting the scale and specification expected of Dubai’s property market. Architectural styles vary significantly from villa to villa, since each was built to its owner’s own design rather than a standard developer blueprint.
Emirates Hills location keeps residents close to Dubai’s major business districts, with direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road connecting to Dubai Marina and Dubai Media City within minutes. Despite this proximity, the gated, low-traffic layout gives Emirates Hills a private character compared to Dubai’s busier commercial corridors.
Unlike standard villa projects, Emirates Hills let buyers purchase individual plots and build fully custom mansions, making modernised renovations a particularly lucrative angle for buyers today.
Designed as a gated community with round-the-clock security, Emirates Hills offers quiet streets and seclusion.
Price growth of 15% year-on-year reflects sustained global demand for one of Dubai's most established ultra-luxury addresses.
Properties valued at AED 2 million or above in Emirates Hills qualify buyers for the UAE's 10-year Golden Visa, subject to meeting the scheme's standard eligibility criteria.
Emaar Properties, Dubai's largest listed developer, continues to oversee and maintain the community, giving buyers confidence in long-term upkeep.
World-famous personalities and international billionaires regularly purchase homes here, given the level of prestige this community offers.
Life in Emirates Hills follows a settled, multicultural rhythm shaped by the international mix of families who call the community home. Throughout the year, residents celebrate occasions such as Christmas, Eid, Diwali, Holi and Halloween, reflecting the diverse backgrounds of the people living here.
Dedicated play areas and pet-friendly spaces sit throughout the community, giving Emirates Hills a family-first character despite its ultra-luxury positioning. A touch of hospitality rounds out the picture, with a five-star hotel operating within the community itself, giving residents access to fine dining and event space without leaving home.
An 18-hole championship course located within the neighbourhood, giving many villas a front-row view of the fairways.
Around 17 lakes run throughout the community, lined with palm trees and open green space, giving select villas waterfront views alongside their golf frontage.
Lailak, Julnar and Nisreen parks give residents landscaped green space and dedicated walking paths within the community itself.
Homes range from classic Mediterranean villas and ultra-modern glass-fronted mansions to Baroque, Versailles-inspired estates and Arabian palazzos, with no two properties built to the same design.
Newer villas often feature interiors by brands like Cavalli, Fendi and Gaggenau, giving recent builds opulence.

Emirates Hills has no hospitals or clinics of its own, so residents rely on established healthcare providers in neighbouring communities for both routine and emergency care.
Grocery shopping runs through two nearby community souks, giving residents everyday essentials and gourmet options within a short drive.
Emirates Hills connects to the wider city via Sheikh Zayed Road, giving residents direct access to Dubai Marina and Dubai Media City within minutes. Taxis and ride-hailing apps like Careem and Uber remain the most practical option, since the gated community has no bus stops of its own.
