Nakheel, a member of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has unveiled Palm Springs, a 3.8 million sq m residential masterplan adjacent to Palm Jebel Ali in southern Dubai.
Planned for almost 50,000 residents, the community will bring together homes, education, healthcare, sport and leisure facilities across 15 neighbourhoods.
Palm Springs has been awarded LEED for Communities Platinum Precertification, supporting Nakheel’s commitment to creating sustainable destinations.
Its planned community infrastructure is designed to support a substantial residential destination within Dubai’s southern growth corridor, with connections to Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Maktoum International Airport.
Khalid Al Malik, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Holding Real Estate, said: "Palm Springs reflects our long-term confidence in southern Dubai and its role in the city’s future. With Palm Jebel Ali nearby, our focus is on creating a community that brings homes and supporting infrastructure together from the outset. This is how we approach Dubai’s next phase of growth: planning for generations, with lasting value at the heart of the masterplan."
The community’s planned leisure facilities include a dedicated Country Club and Sports Club, alongside recreational, fitness and play facilities.
Retail destinations and cultural venues, complemented by cultural programming, are also planned to create places for residents to meet and spend time beyond their homes.
Two schools, a hospital and six mosques are included in the masterplan, placing education, healthcare and essential community services alongside residential neighbourhoods.
Together, these facilities are intended to support family life as the district develops.
The masterplan includes approximately 593,000 sq m of planned open space, including a central park and landscaped areas.
More than 35 km of cycling, jogging and walking routes are planned to link the neighbourhoods with parks, retail and leisure destinations.
Shaded corridors and climate-responsive landscaping are designed to support everyday outdoor movement, while green areas are intended to support the wellbeing of residents and visitors.
The masterplan is designed to use resources efficiently and sustainably, with the latest water, energy, and waste solutions integrated through the community to help lower carbon emissions.
Palm Springs also features climate-sensitive infrastructure and landscaping, with an emphasis on energy efficiency and environmental performance that align with its LEED for Communities Platinum Precertification.
The project comes as southern Dubai takes on a growing role in the city’s development, supported by investment in Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City Dubai.
Its position beside Palm Jebel Ali places it within this wider pattern of residential and economic growth.
