In short

Majid Al Futtaim is building Ghaf Woods in Dubailand near Global Village — a 7,000-unit master plan marketed as Dubai's first forest community, with more trees than residents and air the developer states runs up to 5°C cooler. Current clusters price 1-beds from ~AED 1.5M on a 60/40 plan. Phases one and two sold out, so demand is proven; the trade-off is a long hold — active clusters hand over in 2029.

The project

About Ghaf Woods in Dubailand

Ghaf Woods spans 738,000 m² beside Global Village in Wadi Al Safa 4, rolling out in eight phases to 2031. The concept is genuinely different for Dubai: residential clusters wrapped in a planted forest of 35,000 trees, which Majid Al Futtaim says keeps ambient air up to 5°C cooler and up to 20% cleaner. Early clusters Serra, Cilia and Lacina sold out at launch; sales today run through Capria East and West (from ~AED 1.2–1.5M, handover Q2 2029), the four-building Distrikt (1-beds from ~AED 1.5M, Q3 2029) and the wellness cluster Maravelle (from AED 5.19M).

The investment case is concept scarcity plus a tier-1 developer: no direct forest-living competitor exists, and June 2026 DLD transactions already show 1-beds trading at AED 1.53–1.8M against a 1.2M launch. Set against that: handover for current clusters is 2029, Dubailand carries heavy new supply that pressures rents, and there is no metro nearby. Rental history does not exist yet — nearby benchmarks suggest a realistic 5.5–7% gross once keys are handed.

FAQ

Common questions

How much is an apartment at Ghaf Woods?

Current clusters start around AED 1.2-1.5M for a 1-bed (Capria, Distrikt), with 2-beds from about AED 2.8M and 3-beds from roughly AED 4.8M. The Maravelle wellness cluster starts at AED 5.19M.

When does Ghaf Woods hand over?

Sold-out early clusters (Serra, Cilia, Lacina) complete in 2027; clusters on sale now — Capria and Distrikt — hand over in Q2-Q3 2029. The full master plan runs to 2031.

Is the forest claim real?

Majid Al Futtaim states the planted forest — about 35,000 trees — keeps air up to 5°C cooler and up to 20% cleaner than the surrounding city, and has contracted a dedicated nursery for it. The community is under construction, so the mature effect arrives as planting grows in.

What is the payment plan at Ghaf Woods?

The standard plan is 60/40: 10% on booking, 50% through construction in instalments, 40% at handover. Capria West has been offered at 50/50.

Is Ghaf Woods a good investment?

Ghaf Woods has an estimated gross yield of around 5.5–7% once handed over, and suits buyers who want Dubai’s only forest-living concept — no direct competitor exists for resale or rent. As with any Dubai purchase, returns depend on unit, floor and handover (Q2-Q3 2029); we model the net figure per unit before you commit.

What is the payment plan at Ghaf Woods?

Ghaf Woods is offered on a 60/40, 10% booking plan (developer terms, subject to availability). Handover is Q2-Q3 2029. We confirm the exact schedule and any current incentives per unit on request.

Can a foreigner buy at Ghaf Woods?

Yes. Ghaf Woods is in a freehold zone, so foreigners get full ownership and can buy remotely by power of attorney. Entry is around AED 1.5M; a purchase at or above AED 2M also qualifies for the 10-year Golden Visa.
