Overview
Globna is a 72-unit residential building by Crystal Bay in Dubai South, offering studios from 342 square feet through to three-bedroom apartments of 1,372 square feet. Studios start from AED 550,000, one-bedrooms from AED 830,000, two-bedrooms from AED 1,220,000, and three-bedrooms from AED 1,800,000. Handover is confirmed for Q3 2028.
The project has been designed explicitly around family living. Amenities include gender-separate pools, gyms, and fitness facilities for men and women, indoor and outdoor children's play areas, childcare facilities, co-working spaces, and community reading corners. The rooftop lifestyle deck adds BBQ areas, sun loungers, and cabanas. Every apartment comes with smart home integration covering lighting, climate control, and security.
Interiors follow a minimalistic design approach using quality finishes and modern fittings. The layouts are designed to maximise natural light and space efficiency, which at this price bracket in Dubai is not guaranteed, making it worth noting here.
Dubai South is a master-planned city built around Al Maktoum International Airport, spanning 145 square kilometres with capacity for over 500,000 residents. From Globna, Lulu Hypermarket is two minutes away, AlNoor South Polyclinic is three minutes, and Pulse Mall is four minutes. Al Maktoum International Airport is 15 minutes. Business Bay and Ibn Batuta Mall are approximately 25 and 20 minutes respectively.

FAQs
Yes. This is a freehold development, open to buyers of any nationality, including those based outside the UAE. Our team can walk you through the full purchase process remotely if you are not in Dubai.
Waasiya operates on a shariah-conscious basis. We only broker off-plan units where the terms are free of riba-linked late-payment fees. If you have specific questions about how a project is structured, please talk to us.
Yes, fully. Globna has separate pools, gyms, and fitness facilities for men and women. This is not a token separation: each gender has its own dedicated spaces with no shared access. The Majlis is also gender-separate. Crystal Bay designed the building around this from the ground up, which is uncommon in Dubai at this price point and makes Globna one of the few off-plan projects where the shariah-conscious design is structural rather than cosmetic.
Globna's amenity package includes: separate pools, gyms, fitness facilities, and Majlis spaces for men and women; a rooftop lifestyle deck with BBQ areas, sun loungers, and cabanas; indoor and outdoor children's play zones; a dedicated childcare facility offering one hour of free childcare per day; co-working spaces; and community reading corners. Every apartment also has smart home integration covering lighting, climate, and security. The building has 72 units, so these facilities are shared across a small, community-sized resident group rather than a large tower population.
Yes. Globna includes a dedicated childcare facility, and residents receive one hour of complimentary childcare per day as part of the building's service offering. This is included for all residents and is not a paid add-on. For families with young children, this is one of the more practical and distinctive features of the project.
Smart home integration is built into every unit as standard. Residents can control lighting, climate, and building security from a single interface. This is included in the purchase price and is not offered as a paid upgrade. The system covers the full apartment rather than selected rooms.
Studios: 342 to 441 sq ft from AED 550,000. One-bedrooms: 611 to 658 sq ft from AED 830,000. Two-bedrooms: 932 to 993 sq ft from AED 1,220,000. Three-bedrooms: 1,372 sq ft from AED 1,800,000. All prices are approximate starting figures confirmed by Crystal Bay. Price per square foot across all unit types runs approximately AED 1,300 to AED 1,350.
The standard plan is 20% on booking, 20% during construction, and 60% on handover. Crystal Bay also launched a pre-handover offer allowing up to 50 months of post-handover payments for eligible buyers. Availability of the post-handover plan depends on the current sales stage. Get in touch and we can confirm what is available for the specific unit you are considering.
Units purchased at AED 2,000,000 or above qualify buyers and their families for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa. At Globna, two-bedroom and three-bedroom units may reach or exceed that threshold depending on the final agreed price. Studios and one-bedrooms are below the qualifying level at entry pricing. Waasiya can advise on current criteria and how to structure a purchase to maximise eligibility.
The standard deposit for an off-plan purchase in Dubai is 20% of the purchase price. On this project, that works out to around AED 110,000 on a studio entry price of AED 550,000. Waasiya's relationships with the developer mean we can sometimes negotiate more flexible payment structures for our clients. Get in touch and we can talk through what is realistic for your situation.
