Meraas is one of Dubai's most trusted master community developers — responsible for some of the city's most-loved lifestyle destinations: City Walk, Bluewaters Island, La Mer, and Boxpark. Their approach to development goes beyond individual towers: Meraas builds communities with retail, hospitality, and public realm integrated from the outset.
Their flagship current project — The Acres in Dubailand — is a master villa community that has demonstrated exceptional absorption across all phases. GRAF represents Meraas for future allocation on The Acres Phase 3, expected to launch in late Q3 2026.
The Acres: investment case
The Acres is 20 minutes from Downtown Dubai, positioned in Dubailand's emerging western corridor. Infrastructure investment in the area — schools, roads, utilities — is proceeding in parallel with residential delivery. Phase 1 and 2 buyers have already seen 15–20% appreciation on their purchase price based on current secondary market comparables.
Delivery track record
Meraas has delivered every major project on or ahead of schedule since 2012. The AED 2.4 billion construction contract signed in May 2026 for The Acres Phase 2 — with UNEC and GCC Contracting — is the strongest possible signal of delivery commitment.
Meraas is our first recommendation when clients ask about villa community developers with proven delivery. The Acres Phase 3 will be oversubscribed — we are building a waitlist now. Register your interest with GRAF for early allocation access.
