About Business Bay

At the Centre of Dubai's Urban Lifestyle

Business Bay is a major residential and commercial district located alongside Downtown Dubai. Originally envisioned as one of the city's key business hubs, the area has evolved into a vibrant mixed-use destination where offices, residential towers, luxury hotels and lifestyle venues come together. A defining feature of the community is the Dubai Water Canal, which runs through Business Bay and creates a distinctive waterfront environment lined with promenades, residences, hotels and dining destinations. The area's high-rise skyline provides a wide range of homes, from studios and contemporary apartments to luxury penthouses and branded residences. Its proximity to Downtown Dubai, DIFC and major transport links makes Business Bay particularly attractive to professionals, residents and investors seeking a central Dubai address.

A Prime Address Next to Downtown Dubai

The Dubai Water Canal promenade provides space for walking, jogging and waterfront leisure, while the district is home to numerous restaurants, cafés, hotels and entertainment venues.

The great story of our real estate agency

Coldwell Banker® was founded in 1906 when Colbert Coldwell, a young real estate sales associate, observed families trying to piece their lives together following the disastrous San Francisco earthquake.Disapproving of sales associates who acquired property from vulnerable sellers and then resold it at huge profits, and seeing a need for honest, knowledgeable real estate professionals, he formed his own company.Then in 1913 Colbert Coldwell invites salesman Benjamin Arthur Banker to join his firm. Within a year the exceptionally industrious Banker is invited to become Coldwell’s partner.The foundation marked the beginning of a successful journey for a revolutionary brand, quickly securing a strong foothold in the American real estate market and eventually branching out globally taking advantage of booming economies. Penetrating both developed and developing markets globally, each having its set of challenges to overcome, gained strong support from our backbone in professional realty practices, excellent quality of service and our Sales Associates’ excellent knowledge and experience.Coldwell Banker entered the young yet aggressive and flourishing Dubai realty market in the year 2005 injecting its expertise into the industry and continues to offer clients a level of service and resources of which Colbert Coldwell and his partner Benjamin Banker would be proud of.
