Vida Residence The Hills

Vida Residence The Hills — Emaar's Luxury Branded Residences Overlooking Emirates Golf Club in Dubai's Most Prestigious Enclave TL;DR: Vida Residence The Hills is a premium branded residential development by Emaar Properties within The Hills community, positioned adjacent to Emirates Golf Club between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road. The project comprises two towers of 12 and 15 storeys offering 136 fully finished and furnished apartments across 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom configurations. Branded and managed under Emaar's Vida Hotels and Resorts lifestyle brand, these serviced apartments combine luxury hotel amenities with private residential ownership, featuring infinity pool, golf course views, and seamless access to Dubai Marina and Downtown Dubai. --- ### Project Overview Vida Residence The Hills represents Emaar Properties' extension of its prestigious Vida Hotels and Resorts brand into the residential sector, creating a category of branded luxury serviced apartments that blend the convenience of a five-star hotel with the ownership and privacy of a private home. Situated within The Hills — an exclusive, gated residential and hospitality enclave within Emirates Living — this development is among the most sought-after branded residence addresses in Dubai. The project delivers 136 apartments across two interconnected residential towers — Tower A rising 12 storeys and Tower B rising 15 storeys — both integrated with shared podium-level lifestyle amenities. The Vida brand, known for its contemporary design ethos, wellness-centric programming, and curated social experiences, brings a distinct urban-chic character to the residences that appeals strongly to globally mobile professionals, diplomats, and high-net-worth investors seeking a premium Dubai lifestyle address. --- ### Location & Connectivity: The Hills, Emirates Living The Hills is one of Dubai's most strategically positioned luxury enclaves, bounded by Emirates Golf Club to the north, Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) to the east, and Al Khail Road (E44) to the south. This tri-axis connectivity makes The Hills arguably the most accessible luxury residential address in Dubai: - Dubai Marina / JBR: 8–10 minutes

• Downtown Dubai / Burj Khalifa / Dubai Mall: 15–18 minutes
• DIFC / Business Bay: 18–20 minutes
• Dubai International Airport (DXB): 25–30 minutes
• Mall of the Emirates: 5–7 minutes
• Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT): 5 minutes
• Dubai Internet City / Media City: 8–10 minutes The Hills community is directly connected to Emirates Golf Club, home to the DP World Tour Championship and one of the Middle East's most prestigious golf venues with two championship 18-hole courses: the Majlis Course and the Faldo Course. Residents of Vida Residence The Hills enjoy direct access to this iconic facility, including golf membership opportunities, the Spike Bar restaurant, and the Club's extensive F&B offerings. The immediate surroundings feature The Hills Town Centre — a curated retail and dining hub with Waitrose supermarket, boutique restaurants, cafés, wellness studios, and lifestyle services — providing all daily essentials within a 5-minute walk from the building. --- ### Architecture & Unit Design The twin towers at Vida Residence The Hills exhibit Emaar's hallmark contemporary architectural language: clean glass and concrete facades, landscaped podium terraces, and full-height glazing to maximise views of the golf course, lake, and city skyline. Interior Finishes (Vida Brand Standard):
• Fully fitted kitchens with integrated appliances (Miele or equivalent)
• Engineered hardwood or premium porcelain flooring throughout
• Designer bathroom fittings: rainfall showerheads, freestanding baths in select units, Grohe or equivalent fixtures
• Floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows framing golf course and skyline vistas
• Contemporary furniture packages available for fully furnished turnkey apartments
• Custom millwork and built-in storage solutions by Vida's interior design team
• Branded soft furnishings, bedding, and décor reflecting Vida's urban-chic design identity Views:
• Golf course views over Emirates Golf Club's Majlis and Faldo courses
• Lake and lagoon views
• Dubai Marina skyline vistas
• Partial Burj Al Arab and sea horizon views from upper floors --- ### Amenities & Lifestyle Programming Residential Building Amenities:
• Infinity-edge swimming pool at podium level with sun deck and cabana loungers
• Fully equipped state-of-the-art gymnasium with Technogym or Life Fitness equipment
• Yoga and pilates studio
• Steam room and sauna
• Children's pool and play area

• Two 18-hole championship courses: Majlis (home of DP World Tour events) and Faldo Course
• Golf Academy and driving range within walking distance --- ### Investment Analysis Asset Class: Branded Residence Branded residences globally command a significant price premium — research from Savills and consistently shows that branded residences in major cities trade at 25–40% premiums over comparable non-branded properties, driven by hotel management, brand recognition, and guaranteed service standards. Rental Performance:
• Short-term (holiday home) rental yields on Vida-branded apartments benefit from the hotel operator's booking channels and corporate clientele
• Vida Hotels and Resorts can manage units in an official hotel rental pool, handling all bookings, guest services, and maintenance for a management fee Capital Appreciation:
• The Hills community benefits from Emirates Golf Club adjacency and scarcity of new supply — no further development land available within the enclave
• Vida brand associations with Emaar (the UAE's largest listed developer) provide institutional confidence in long-term asset quality
• Dubai Marina/JLT corridor consistently ranks among Dubai's top 3 property markets for transaction volume and price appreciation Freehold Title & UAE Golden Visa:
• Vida Residence The Hills is registered as freehold property under Dubai Land Department
• Foreign nationals from all countries are eligible to purchase and own freehold --- ### Why Vida Residence The Hills Stands Out 1. Emaar Pedigree: Emaar Properties — developer of Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Dubai Marina, and The Palm — brings unmatched credibility, build quality, and after-sales service to this development. 2. Rare Golf Course Frontage: Direct overlooking of Emirates Golf Club from residential units is a premium that virtually no other Dubai apartment building can replicate, given the Golf Club's protected landscape status. 3. Branded Hotel Management: The Vida Hotels operator model gives investor-owners a professional, hands-off income stream with hotel-grade service delivery, guest acquisition, and property maintenance. 4. Strategic Tri-Road Access: The junction of Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road means residents are never more than 10 minutes from Dubai Marina, 18 minutes from Downtown — a connectivity advantage that very few Dubai communities share. 5. Waitrose & Town Centre Convenience: The Hills Town Centre with Waitrose, premium dining, and wellness studios places premium everyday amenities at residents' doorsteps — a key differentiator vs. Marina or JLT high-rises where ground-level retail is inconsistent. 6. 136 Units = Boutique Scale: With just 136 apartments across two towers, Vida Residence The Hills maintains a boutique, low-density character uncommon among Emaar's larger community projects, ensuring exclusivity and a strong sense of community. 7. Proven Rental Demand: The Emirates Hills / The Hills / Al Quoz Prime corridor serves one of Dubai's highest concentrations of C-suite executives, DIFC/Media City professionals, and golf enthusiasts — maintaining year-round rental demand at premium rates. --- ### Summary Managed under the Vida Hotels and Resorts brand, residents enjoy hotel-standard concierge, housekeeping, and rental management services alongside private ownership benefits.
