Al Jaddaf at a glance
Al Jaddaf is a creekside district between Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport, and one of Binghatti's earliest strongholds. It combines short drive times into the city centre with prices well below Business Bay, which is why it has attracted a steady run of mid-rise residential towers.

About Al Jaddaf
- Location
- On Dubai Creek, between Downtown Dubai and the airport
- Drive times
- Around 10 minutes to Downtown, 10 to Dubai International Airport
- Character
- Creekside district mixing residential towers, hotels and cultural venues
- Home types
- Studios, apartments and penthouses
- Ownership
- Freehold in the designated plots
Al Jaddaf grew out of Dubai's traditional dhow-building area on the creek and has been redeveloped into a mixed district of residential towers, hospitality and cultural destinations, with Dubai Healthcare City and the Jameel Arts Centre nearby.
Binghatti has delivered several buildings here, and the district's appeal is straightforward: it is one of the closest freehold areas to both Downtown and the airport, which suits frequent travellers and healthcare and aviation professionals.
Pricing sits between JVC and Business Bay, and the rental pool is unusually stable because so much of it comes from hospital, hotel and airport employment rather than seasonal demand.
