Palma Development has launched the second phase of Serenia District, an AED 5 billion master-planned residential community in Dubai's Jumeirah Islands, according to Gulf Business. The launch introduces high-end apartment stock into an established residential area that has traditionally been villa-centric.
The second phase consists of two residential towers: East Residence 2 and East Residence 3. East Residence 2 rises 25 storeys and will house two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments ranging from 1,316 to 5,364 square feet. East Residence 3 stands 23 storeys high and offers one- and two-bedroom layouts sized between 875 and 1,605 square feet.
The launch follows construction progress on the project's first phase, West Residence, where foundation works have finished and main contractor Khansaheb Civil Engineering has begun primary structural work.
Palma Development CEO Kareem Derbas stated that premium apartments have remained limited in Jumeirah Islands and that Serenia District directly addresses this supply gap to deliver long-term capital value to property owners.
Serenia District was conceptually designed by Japanese firm Nikken Sekkei, with Godwin Austen Johnson serving as design architect. Spanning over 600,000 square feet with a built-up area of 3.5 million square feet, the wider scheme connects six residential towers around a four-storey clubhouse and six wellness zones.
