Ritz-Carlton Residences Business Bay
The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Business Bay is a low-density, ultra-prime branded residential project located directly on the Dubai Water Canal, in one of the most established mixed-use districts of the city.
Developed by Kappa Acca (Khamas Group) and operated by Marriott International under The Ritz-Carlton brand, the project sits firmly in the super-prime, service-led residential segment. This is not a mass-market branded tower, but a tightly controlled collection of just 48 fully furnished residences, designed for owners who prioritise privacy, service quality, and long-term value preservation.
The tower comprises 3 podium levels, 18 residential floors, and a functional rooftop, with architecture by MMA Projects and interior design by Ana Moussinet.

Location Overview — Business Bay
The project is positioned on Marasi Drive, directly along the Dubai Water Canal.
- Walking distance to Marasi Bay Marina
- 5 minutes to Downtown Dubai and Dubai Mall
- Views towards Burj Khalifa and Downtown skyline
- 15–20 minutes to Dubai International Airport (DXB)

Business Bay remains one of Dubai’s most liquid central districts, combining commercial activity, hospitality, waterfront living, and proximity to Downtown.
Investment Perspective
The Ritz-Carlton Residences Business Bay targets a capital-preservation and lifestyle-driven buyer profile, rather than yield-focused mass investors.
Key investment considerations:
- Branded residences historically trade at a premium versus non-branded stock
- Extremely limited supply (48 units) reduces internal resale competition
- Professional management by Marriott International protects asset condition
- Strong appeal for executive tenants and ultra-high-net-worth end users
- Central waterfront location supports long-term liquidity
This project sits in a segment where scarcity, brand credibility, and service consistency matter more than price-per-square-foot comparisons.
