Dubai Creek Gardens is positioned as a new element in DHCC’s approach to integrated healthcare, wellness and lifestyle. It dedicates 70% of the site to green spaces, sports facilities, parks, and open areas focused on well-being.

The development forms part of ongoing efforts to align with Dubai’s Quality of Life Strategy 2033 and the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan. Both initiatives prioritise enhancing living standards and developing sustainable, people-centred communities across the city.

DHCA also explained its role as a founding shareholder in the Global Partners Property Fund II, supporting long-term investment in projects within the area.

Dubai Creek Gardens is expected to feature the UAE’s first Westin and Renaissance branded residences, which are being introduced through a collaboration with Marriott International.

The new homes are part of a larger trend in Dubai for residential developments operated under well-known international brands. The site will also offer retail and dining options for residents.

DHCA CEO Issam Galadari said: “Global Partner’s Dh3bn investment in Dubai Creek Gardens reflects the continued confidence of leading investors in DHCC Phase 2 and its potential as an integrated destination for healthcare, wellness and lifestyle.

“Developments of this scale and quality contribute to our vision for the destination by creating an environment where people can live, work and access world-class healthcare and wellness services within one connected ecosystem.

“By enabling high-quality developments that place well-being and quality of life at their core, we remain committed to supporting Dubai’s wider vision for sustainable urban growth while creating an environment that meets the evolving needs of the people and businesses that form part of the DHCC community.” 

The project is scheduled for completion in 2030.
