About Dubai South Properties
Dubai South Properties is the property development arm of Dubai South, a Dubai government city around Al Maktoum International Airport. Dubai South was launched in 2006 as Dubai World Central and was renamed in August 2015. It covers about 145 square kilometres and includes the Expo 2020 site and the grounds of the Dubai Airshow.
Its homes are in the Residential District. The first two communities there, The Pulse and The Villages, were announced in 2016. The first freehold homes in the district were built by private developers, and The Pulse was the first project that Dubai South built and sold itself. In 2025 it completed The Pulse Beachfront, a community of about 800 villas and townhouses around a lagoon.
It also works with other developers. Emaar South, a 50-50 venture with Emaar announced in 2016, is a district of villas, townhouses and apartments around a golf course. In December 2024 Dubai South signed an agreement with BT Holding for a gated community in its Golf District, and it has also signed with Majid Al Futtaim for a large mixed-use community.
In April 2024 Dubai approved a Dh128 billion passenger terminal at Al Maktoum International Airport. Passenger flights are to move there from Dubai International in phases over about ten years.
