The villas on Palm Jumeirah are some of the most luxurious and sought after residences in Dubai and globally. Located primarily along the 16 fronds of the island, these villas offer unmatched privacy, waterfront living, and panoramic views. Frond Villas are highly sought after by both end users and investors due to their unique location, exclusivity, and strong potential for value appreciation. They offer incredible renovation opportunities if the correct villa is purchased.
The fronds are the leaf shaped extensions on either side of the island, each lined with luxury villas that enjoy private beach access and direct sea views.
Number of Fronds: 16 (labeled A to P)
Type of Villas : Garden homes | Signature villas | Custom villas - Primarily freehold, standalone villas.
Beach Access : All villas on fronds come with private beachfront (approximately 13,000+ ft of shoreline per frond)
Privacy: Gated security at the base of each frond, with no through-traffic, offering a very exclusive environment
Views: Depending on the orientation and the specific frond residents can expect views from the Dubai skyline or landmarks such as Atlantis the Royal. They also either have a sunrise or sunset view from the swimming pool with both being extremely popular with owners.
Garden homes
Garden homes are the smallest type of villa on the fronds built by Nakheel. They are currently the most popular villa to purchase standard to renovate and resell. You can find these type of villas on frond - A B C D E F K L M O & P only.
Original garden homes typically have a built up area of 5,000 sqft and an original plot size of 6,700 sqft. Some owners have also purchased extra built up area and plot making these villas as large as possible making the built up area over 7,000 sqft and plot over 8,500 sqft. As you can see from the photos below the extra plot allows them to build further onto the beach and have a much larger infinity pool area. This is exactly the same for signature villas.
Types - There are 7 different types of garden homes and over 800 villas on 11 of the 16 fronds
Atrium entry 4 bed | Atrium entry 5 bed | Atrium entry G+2 | Central rotunda | Grand foyer | Grand foyer G+2 | Garden gallery
Entry prices for garden homes range from AED 27,000,000 and fully renovated options are currently trading at AED 63,000,000 onwards so there is great margin for the correct villa to be renovated and flipped.

Custom built villas
The master developer for the Palm Jumeirah Nakheel decided to keep fronds G H I J and N completely unconstructed and end up selling the plots privately and directly to clients who could build a custom villa with bigger plot sizes, basements and extra floors.
As you can imagine owners used there own contractors and materials so these villas / fronds look completely different to the other of the 11 fronds with only garden homes & signature villas present.
With a large number of custom built villas complete buyers can now choose from a number of different styles and designs based on there personal preferences. Garden homes and signature villas still remain the most popular choice as per sales transactions and volume but there have been some very large transactions and activity with custom built villas.
It just shows the Palm Jumeirah can cater for whatever you are specifically looking for. There are plots of land still available for building your own custom villa and also fully turnkey custom villas on the market ready to go. Entry prices for custom villas are at the AED 50M mark price bracket.
