The St. Regis Residences is Emaar’s branded tower pair in Downtown Dubai, marketed beside Dubai Opera with two art-deco-inspired towers (about 262 m and 171 m) and 1–3 bedroom homes. [1] Property Finder labels the original project sold out, shows under-construction status, a historic starting price near AED 2.62M, and an expected completion around December 2026. [2]
Independent research — not Emaar sales. Emaar states the homes are not owned, developed or sold by Marriott; St. Regis marks are used under license. [1] Portal handover and price lines are research signals; the SPA (or resale contract) controls. Method.

Tower product shape
Emaar markets two sleek, art-deco-inspired towers above the Dubai Opera district, with published marketing heights of about 262 m and 171 m, linked by an ultra-modern landscaped podium and a pool deck over the Opera promenade. [1] Homes are described as one- to three-bedroom residences — not a villa product. [1]
Amenities on the developer page include residential lounges, guest suites, management office space, podium decks and swimming / kids pools. [1] Treat amenity marketing as intent, not a title guarantee for every unit.
Property Finder unit cards (about 720–914 sqft 1BR, 1,070–1,552 2BR, 1,663–1,844 3BR) are portal research signals. [2] Confirm net area on the plan for the apartment you shortlist. Ignore mixed PF long-form copy that invents 4–5BR bands if it conflicts with Emaar’s 1–3BR product statement. [1] [2]
Name collision risk: Property Finder also lists a different project branded “St. Regis Residences Financial Center Road” under another developer. This page is only Emaar’s Downtown Opera-facing release (srresidencesdubai). [1] [2]
Payment plan and timing
On Property Finder the original release is sold out. [2] Expect secondary-market terms (or any residual stock off-portal) rather than a single published developer ladder.
The portal still displays a Standard schedule of 10% at booking, 60% through construction and 30% at keys. [2] Treat that as launch-era research only — convert it to dated AED amounts on the SPA or assignment contract. Emaar’s live capture we used does not print instalments. [1]
For keys, PF’s structured fields lean to 25 December 2026 (FAQ: December 2026), yet the same listing’s prose still says Q4-2025. [2] Those lines can move. Counsel should pin the handover language you care about, then check any handover notice and DLD completion evidence.
Area and developer
Developer: Emaar — master-planned communities and Downtown landmarks. [1]
Area: Downtown Dubai — Emaar’s “Centre of Now” framing between Sheikh Zayed Road and Financial Centre Road, with Opera, Fountain and Burj Khalifa as walkable marketing anchors. [1]
Cross-check one other Downtown product in our graph (for example Downtown Views II) before treating a single branded listing as the only bid.
Risks and open points
- Secondary market — with PF sold-out, asking prices and instalments may track assignments, not the launch brochure. [2]
- Two key-date stories on one portal — structured 2026 fields vs Q4-2025 prose. [2]
- Launch floor ≠ invoice — ~AED 2.62M feed start and ~AED 2.40M resale floor answer different questions. [2]
- Bedroom band risk — 1BR / 2BR / 3BR steps on PF jump by millions. [2]
- Licensed brand — St. Regis name does not make Marriott the counterparty. [1]
- Lookalike listings — other Downtown “St. Regis” products (e.g. Financial Center Road attribution) are out of scope here. [2]
- Open diligence — no RERA/escrow/service-charge figures locked on this page.
Checklist before you pay
- Match the legal name The St. Regis Residences, Downtown Dubai plus tower and unit to Oqood / SPA wording.
- Pull written RERA project ID and escrow references before any material transfer.
- On an assignment, collect seller title path, service-charge arrears and full payment history — do not reuse PF’s launch-era 10/60/30 as the live schedule. [2]
- Tie AED to a floor plan ID and net area, not to the ~2.62M feed floor or ~2.40M resale hint alone. [2]
- Have counsel choose which portal key-date story (2025 prose vs 2026 fields) you will not rely on, and codify the real clause. [2]
- Screenshot the Emaar srresidencesdubai product page so the Opera-facing towers are not confused with other St. Regis brands. [1]
- Ask for a written service-charge estimate sized to a 1–3BR tower home.
- Run a second Downtown shortlist item such as Downtown Views II before wiring funds. Process map: due diligence guide.
Bottom line
Anchored: Emaar developer, Opera-facing Downtown site, twin-tower product, 1–3BR range, Marriott license line. [1] Provisional: sold-out tag, under-construction phase, launch vs resale prices, 10/60/30 history, size cards, and disagreeing 2025/2026 key-date lines. [2] Registry and escrow not locked. Independent research only — contracts govern.
FAQ

Emaar’s two-tower branded residence by Dubai Opera in Downtown Dubai, marketed with 1–3 bedroom homes and St. Regis marks under Marriott license. [1]
