How these are countedDirect locality, all apartment bedroom types. Area context is not building performance. Planned dates are relative to the register date, not a delivery forecast; project unit counts can include mixed uses. Sales activity is not time on market or occupancy.
The Marina Quays towers
6 towers in Marina Quays, at the bedroom type above.
Ejari files Marina Quays’s leases under the project, not a tower, so 3 towers share one rent: the project figure above, counted once. Prices are each tower’s own registered sales.

- What is the rental yield in Marina Quay West?
- Marina Quay West returns 6.2% gross: a median new-contract rent of AED 94,500 a year (81 Ejari contracts in 12 months) over a price benchmark of AED 1.52M (median of 10 sales in the last 12 months, latest Sept 2026), before service charge, agency fees or vacant months.
- How much does a 1 bedroom in Marina Quay West cost?
- The median registered sale price is AED 1.52M (1,928 AED/sqft), from 10 Dubai Land Department sales in the last 12 months. This is a price paid, not an asking price.
- What are apartments in Marina Quay West selling for right now?
- Registered sales of ready units in Marina Quay West over the last 12 months have a median of 1,928 AED/sqft, across 10 sales. That uses the same trailing year as the rent and yield figures, requires at least five sales, and excludes off-plan. Floor, view and condition move a specific unit's price around it.
- Have prices in Marina Quay West risen or fallen?
- Median price per square foot moved -2.1% over the last 12 months against the 12 before it, on 10 sales with a price per square foot. On a sample this size, read the direction rather than the exact figure.
- How does Marina Quay West compare with Dubai Marina?
- Its 6.2% gross yield sits +0.4 pts against the Dubai Marina median of 5.8%, computed the same way at the same bedroom grain. Gross yield divides the median annual rent from new registered Ejari contracts starting in the last 12 months by the median price of the building's registered sales in the last 12 months (at least 3 sales) for the same bedroom type, with ready and off-plan sales counted alike.
