Investors have snapped up four ultra-prime waterfront mansions and more than half of the luxury apartments at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, part of the Keturah Resort in Dubai. This development marks the Middle East's first fully wellness-certified resort, aiming to bolster the UAE's position as a leading wellness destination.
Situated along Dubai Creek and near the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, the resort is progressing as planned, according to luxury developer Keturah. The gated community includes 12 Creek-side mansions, each spanning 42,000 square feet, and eight residential buildings with 193 apartments—110 of which have been sold. The resort also features a five-star Ritz-Carlton boutique hotel, a standalone wellness centre, and a private marina.
With eight mansions remaining, priced between $91.2 million (AED335 million) and $98.8 million (AED363 million), Keturah anticipates continued interest from buyers, many of whom are looking to make Dubai their permanent residence. The development is expected to contribute significantly to the UAE's $40.8 billion wellness economy.
Talal M. Al Gaddah, CEO and Founder of Keturah, highlighted the UAE's top ranking in global wellness growth, attributing it to the country's Wellbeing 2031 agenda. "The UAE's wellness economy is already the fastest-growing in the MENA region," he stated, emphasising the shift in luxury real estate towards enhancing health and wellbeing.
A survey by Keturah revealed that most global investors in Dubai's luxury real estate are interested in residing in the city, with wellness and lifestyle quality being pivotal in their purchasing decisions. The resort, certified by Delos and the International WELL Building Institute, offers extensive wellness amenities, including a 5-star spa and health club.
The resort's location offers over 550 metres of waterfront promenade and 80,000 square metres of landscaped green spaces, with the adjacent sanctuary attracting diverse bird species, including the greater flamingo
