What is Sobha Siniya Island, and is it in Dubai?
Sobha Siniya Island is an island community in Umm Al Quwain, not Dubai, developed by Sobha Realty with Umm Al Quwain Properties. Sobha gives it 23 million sq ft, with about 46% kept as open green space, and connects it to the mainland by a 1.7 km bridge. Sobha puts Al Marjan Island 10 minutes away, Sharjah 30 minutes and Dubai 50 minutes.
Sobha is selling three kinds of home: beach villas (Palm Grove, 4 bedrooms, and Coral Beach Villas, 5 and 6 bedrooms), Beach Residences apartment buildings along the lagoon beach, and Marina Residences around a yacht club and marina. More than a dozen apartment buildings have been released since 2024; the newest are Tranquil Beach Residences and Capeside Marina Residences, both due in June 2030.
The island also has an Anantara resort and 125 Anantara-branded residences under construction, due to open in 2030 (Zawya). Because the project is in Umm Al Quwain, sales are registered with the Umm Al Quwain Department of Land and Property, not the Dubai Land Department.

Where is Sobha Siniya Island?
Sobha Siniya Island is on Al Siniya Island in Umm Al Quwain, the emirate between Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah, reached from the mainland by a 1.7 km bridge. Sobha puts Al Marjan Island 10 minutes away, Sharjah 30 minutes and Dubai 50 minutes; its brochures place it 20 minutes from Sobha's Downtown UAQ project, with both reached via the E11 and E311.
How is Sobha Siniya Island laid out?
Sobha's plan wraps the island's existing mangroves and beaches. The Beach Residences sit along the lagoon and natural beach, the Marina Residences around a yacht club, canal and the island's mall and hotel, and the Palm Grove and Coral villas in rows along the shore with direct beach access. Sobha keeps about 46% of the land as open space and adds a golf course, clubhouse and helipad.
What are the Palm Grove Villas?
Palm Grove is Sobha's 4-bedroom villa collection on Siniya Island: gated beach homes with direct access to the sand, a private pool and a roof terrace. Sobha's brochure shows three designs of 4,815 to 5,219 sq ft on plots of about 5,700 to 9,100 sq ft.
Sobha lists Palm Grove from AED 11.53M with handover in December 2027. Its website gives the size as "available on request", so the areas here are from Sobha's December 2024 brochure.

What is the Sobha Siniya Island payment plan?
- 10%On booking
- 50%During construction, in instalments
- 40%On handover
| When | Share | You pay |
|---|---|---|
| On booking | 10% | AED 1,153,000 |
| During construction, in instalments | 50% | AED 5,765,000 |
| On handover | 40% | AED 4,612,000 |
Sobha calls its Siniya plan 60/40 (Capeside page). The 10% / 50% / 40% split is listed for the villas by Property Finder and Inside Realty (Oct 2026); Sobha hasn't published a building-by-building schedule, so ask for the one in your offer. The Dubai Land Department's 4% fee does not apply: Siniya is registered with the Umm Al Quwain Department of Land and Property, whose published service fees include AED 1,000 for the ownership document plus AED 60 in registration and packaging fees. No percentage transfer fee for off-plan purchases is published, so get Sobha's full fee list in writing before you pay.
Questions buyers ask about Sobha Siniya Island
Is Sobha Siniya Island a good investment?
We don't give investment advice, but here are the numbers. Palm Grove 4-bed villas work out at about AED 2,395 per sq ft of saleable area (AED 11.53M for 4,815 sq ft) and Coral 5-beds about AED 2,500 (AED 18.07M for 7,226 sq ft). Apartments are about AED 2,700 to 2,850 per sq ft on total area, for example Tranquil 1-beds from AED 1.40M for 511 sq ft. There is no resale or rental history yet on the island, and no public price index for Umm Al Quwain like Dubai's, so comparisons are harder.
Weigh the developer's record (Sobha builds in-house and reports 8,000+ homes delivered), the 2027 to 2030 handover dates, the 60/40 plan, and that this is a newer market than Dubai, with a different regulator and fee structure.
What are the service charges at Sobha Siniya Island?
Sobha hasn't published service charges for Siniya Island, and no building has been handed over yet, so there is no actual budget to compare. Umm Al Quwain has no public service-charge index like Dubai's RERA index. Ask Sobha for the anticipated rate per sq ft in writing for the building you are buying, and treat it as an estimate until handover. If you plan to use Sobha's suggested holiday-home management at Tranquil (Stay by Latinem), ask for its fee too.
Is Sobha Siniya Island's handover on track?
Sobha's website gives December 2027 for Palm Grove, Selene and Delphine, June 2028 for Coral Beach Villas and Aquamarine, September 2028 for Florine and Coastline, 2029 for Starline and most Marina Residences, and March to June 2030 for Pearlside, Tranquil and Capeside. At launch in October 2024 Sobha targeted December 2027 for phase 1 (Gulf News), which matches the earliest dates today. Property Finder shows construction under way since July 2024. Sobha does not publish completion percentages for the island, so ask for the latest construction update and confirm the date in your SPA.
What are buyers asking about Sobha Siniya Island?
Is it Dubai? No, it's Umm Al Quwain, so registration and fees follow UAQ rules, not the DLD's. Which building is still selling? Sobha has released more than a dozen apartment buildings; the newest are Tranquil and Capeside. Can I rent it out short term? Sobha's Tranquil brochure offers post-handover holiday-home management through Stay by Latinem. How long is the drive? Sobha says 50 minutes to Dubai and 10 to Al Marjan Island. Why do prices differ online? Many listings still quote 2024 launch prices (villas from AED 10.5M); Sobha's current from-prices are higher.
