Fairview Residency is a residential tower on the Dubai Water Canal in Business Bay, built by Deyaar Development. Twenty-two floors rise above a single basement level, and the building was completed in 2014.
Homes are freehold one- and two-bedroom apartments, many with canal-facing balconies and open layouts ranging from roughly 780 to 1,580 sq ft, and several are sold or rented fully furnished. Shared facilities include a swimming pool with Burj Khalifa views, a gym, steam and sauna rooms, and 24-hour security.
The tower sits on the southern stretch of Business Bay, right next to HYDE Hotel. Alongside the building, the Dubai Canal promenade gives residents a waterfront walkway that connects to Downtown Dubai.
Fairview Residency tends to appeal to young professionals and working professionals who want to stay central, close to Downtown and DIFC, without paying the premium of those districts. It also stands out to investors because furnished one-bedroom apartments in the building see steady turnover.

The data displayed is based on average prices and sizes of all in Fairview Residency.
See all TransactionsFairview Residency runs along the Dubai Water Canal in Business Bay, and that direct canal frontage gives many units unobstructed water and Burj Khalifa views. Sheikh Zayed Road is roughly a five-minute drive west, and Al Khail Road takes about the same time heading south. If you drive regularly, that makes cross-city trips much simpler outside peak hours.
On foot, daily basics are manageable. And the in-house amenities are integrated from fitness to concierge.
Parking: Each apartment comes with one covered parking space, spread across the basement and podium levels. For guests or a second car, paid parking sits about a two-minute walk from the building.
Pool and outdoor spaces: The swimming pool sits within a podium-level garden and looks out toward Burj Khalifa, so it’s an easy place to switch off after work. There’s also a children’s pool, a jacuzzi, an outdoor seating area, and a barbecue area that works as a small event space.
Fitness and wellness: A fully equipped gym covers daily workouts, and there’s a spa along with separate steam and sauna rooms for men and women.
Security and concierge: CCTV runs around the clock, security staff are on duty day and night, and a 24-hour concierge desk looks after the lobby. Maintenance staff are based on site for quick repairs, and the building is fitted with fire alarms, firefighting systems, and emergency lighting.
Families and pets: Children have a dedicated play area, and the building is pet-friendly.
The nearest coffee stop is The Lounge, a casual cafe about a seven-minute walk along the canal. Crumbs is roughly a nine-minute walk away and is a popular pick for pastries and light bites. If you want something familiar, Starbucks is about a three-minute drive.
Fairview Residency doesn't have schools in its immediate Business Bay surroundings, so families usually look to nearby areas such as Al Quoz, Nad Al Sheba, and Jumeirah.

Fairview Residency sits along Marasi Drive in Business Bay, with quick road links to Al Asayel Street and Al Khail Road. If you drive often, that gives you a practical route across the city.
Metro access is nearby too: Business Bay Metro Station on the Red Line is roughly a five-minute drive away, and Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall Metro Station is a little farther.
For shorter local trips, two dedicated bus stops sit right outside the tower. Fairview Residency 2 is less than a one-minute walk from the lobby entrance. Fairview Residency 1 sits about a seven-minute walk away on the opposite side of the road. Together, they serve routes that loop through Business Bay and connect to Downtown Dubai.
You also have several other stops within walking distance. Clayton Residency 2 is roughly a four-minute walk away. Mayfair Residency 1 and Mayfair Residency 2 are each about a five-minute walk, while Volante Dubai Tower 1 and Volante Dubai Tower 2 are around an eight- to nine-minute walk. Al Madar Scala Tower 2 is farther out at roughly a ten-minute walk from the building.
Taxis and ride-hailing apps like Careem and Uber are widely available throughout Business Bay, and pickups from Fairview Residency are straightforward thanks to the building's canalside road access.
By car, Fairview Residency connects to Al Khail Road within a few minutes, which helps if you're heading south toward Dubai Marina or north toward Deira. Financial Center Street is also reachable in under seven minutes and links drivers to Sheikh Zayed Road and DIFC. Closer to the canal, Marasi Drive offers another way through the western side of Business Bay.
Parking options are decent. Paid street parking sits right next to the building, within a two-minute walk. A Zone 346G parking area is also about a two-minute walk away. Other RTA-managed lots coded 346GP are spread along surrounding streets, and Permit Holders Only parking for the Renaissance Hotel area is about a seven-minute walk. Artin Car Park Rental is a little over ten minutes on foot if you need a longer-term option.
From Fairview Residency, Dubai Mall is roughly a seven- to eight-minute drive depending on traffic. Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa area take about the same time.
I’ve spent a fair amount of time around Business Bay and it’s one of those areas that looks exactly how you’d expect Dubai to look - sleek, central, and always a bit on the go. Location-wise, it’s hard to fault. You’re minutes from everything includes the likes of Downtown, DIFC, Sheikh Zayed Road, and almost next door to The Dubai Mall, which is obviously one of the biggest highlights of the city. Getting around is pretty seamless overall, and public transport is a big plus here: metros, buses, and cabs are all easily available, so you’re not fully reliant on a car. What’s interesting about Business Bay is that while it’s very work-driven, it’s also quite residential, so you get a mix of both. There are loads of cafés, gyms, and restaurants, and the canal side is genuinely a highlight, especially in the cooler months when it’s great for a walk or even cycling. That said, it can feel a little… transactional. A lot of people are there for work, so it doesn’t always have that strong “community” vibe. Traffic can also be a bit chaotic during peak hours, and depending on the building, quality really varies; some are great, others not so much. Overall, it works really well if you want convenience, connectivity, and that polished city feel, with the added bonus of actually being able to live there and not just work there.

Business Bay Peak hour traffic is really a challenge to get out of business bay, the metro is always crowded, for families and bachelors its ideal for being the middle of the city and burj views

Business Bay is Dubai’s thriving commercial and mixed-use hub, offering a dynamic environment for both work and lifestyle. Known for its modern skyline, it is home to numerous offices, corporate headquarters, and business centers, making it one of the city’s prime destinations for professionals and entrepreneurs. The community also features high-rise residential towers, stylish apartments, and waterfront promenades along the Dubai Canal, creating a live-work-play environment. Residents enjoy a variety of dining, retail, and leisure options, with easy access to Downtown Dubai, Burj Khalifa, and other key areas. Connectivity is excellent, with major roads and metro access ensuring smooth commuting. However, as a central business district, the area can experience traffic congestion during peak hours, and rental rates tend to be on the higher side. Overall, Business Bay is ideal for those seeking a modern, urban lifestyle in close proximity to Dubai’s commercial and entertainment core.

One of the most central and vibrant locations of Dubai - mix of commercial and residential buildings. Plenty of restaurants, cafes and hotels - giving an ideal city vibe plus very close proximity to Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa! The Dubai Canal within the area is great for evening walks. The parking and traffic can get bit intense especially during peak hours. Getting around Business Bay is not always the easiest - buses are the ideal option for public transport rather than the metro as the buildings are spread out.

Fairview Residency is a residential tower in Business Bay with a straightforward unit mix: one- and two-bedroom apartments. Most homes face the Dubai Canal, so you'll usually get direct water views or sightlines toward Burj Khalifa. Several units also come to market fully furnished.
The apartment mix in Fairview Residency is split between one-bedroom and two-bedroom layouts. One-bedroom units range from roughly 780 sq ft to about 885 sq ft, while the two-bedroom layout comes in at around 1,309 sq ft. A few larger one-bedroom apartments in Fairview Residency come with big terraces that bring the total area to about 1,580 sq ft, which is unusual for Business Bay towers at this price point.
These one-bedroom homes in Business Bay pair the main bathroom with a guest powder room, and the two-bedroom layouts give each bedroom its own en-suite. Both types have fitted kitchens, built-in wardrobes, marble floors, and a balcony reached from the living and dining area. Many available apartments are furnished, and higher-floor canal-facing units also pick up Burj Khalifa views. Against nearby stock, Fairview Residency sits between lower and higher entry points.
Fairview Residency works well for young professionals and working professionals who want a central Business Bay address with canal and Burj Khalifa views. You get one- and two-bedroom apartments, a pool, and a gym, and residents generally praise the maintenance and staff.
Fairview Residency's sale prices currently range from roughly AED 1.13M to AED 2.5M, with a median around AED 1.54M. Several listed units are already tenanted, which points to steady rental demand in this part of Business Bay. Returns still vary by unit size, floor, and view, so buyers should compare available stock carefully before committing.
Business Bay is a designated freehold area in Dubai, so overseas buyers are generally eligible to purchase property there. Buyers should verify the specific title deed status for any unit in Fairview Residency through the Dubai Land Department or their conveyancer before completing a transaction.
Fairview Residency is about 4.3 km from Business Bay Metro Station and roughly 4.7 km from Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall Metro Station. That's generally around a five- to ten-minute drive depending on traffic. For everyday trips, the building has its own bus stops right outside: Fairview Residency 2 is only about 34 m away, and several other stops, including Clayton Residency 2 and Mayfair Residency 2, are within walking distance.
Fairview Residency has on-site parking for residents, and there's paid parking within walking distance as well. Peak-hour traffic in Business Bay can slow entry and exit, so if you commute by car, it's worth allowing extra time during rush hours.
Fairview Residency and Clayton Residency are very close to each other in Business Bay and share the same bus-stop corridor. Clayton Residency's sale prices start a bit lower, from around AED 985K, while Fairview Residency's entry point is closer to AED 1.13M. Fairview Residency often has slightly larger one-bedroom layouts, with some exceeding 1,500 sq ft, and many units have direct canal or Burj Khalifa views.
