First-Row Waterfront Living on Island B, Dubai Islands
The Meriva Collection by Ellington occupies a premier "first-row" position on Island B — the northernmost edge of the Dubai Islands (formerly Deira Islands) — directly overlooking the open Arabian Gulf. This specific orientation offers some of the most expansive, uninterrupted waterfront and sunset views anywhere in Dubai.
Island B, also known as Shore Island, is the most tranquil and low-density zone within the five-island master plan. The island has been masterfully zoned for boutique resorts, wellness-focused residences, and curated community retail — all with a strong emphasis on privacy, open green space, and walkability.
While Island A will host the main marina and high-traffic hospitality attractions, Island B is designed for residents seeking an exclusive, resort-like experience away from the bustle.
A Secluded Yet Connected Coastal Address
- True Waterfront Serenity: Unlike Marina, JBR, or Palm Jumeirah, Island B offers a quieter, more refined luxury — defined by soft landscaping, pedestrian boulevards, and low-rise beachfront design.
- New-Era Community: The Meriva Collection anchors the flagship residential phase of the Dubai Islands vision, placing residents at the center of upcoming “Blue Flag” beaches, yacht docking, and nature-linked amenities.
- Island-City Hybrid: The Infinity Bridge connects Island B to Deira and mainland Dubai in under 10 minutes — offering island tranquility with urban access, including Dubai International Airport and the historic Gold Souks.

Positioned for Growth
Island B is not just a beachfront sanctuary — it’s the centerpiece of Dubai's northern urban expansion. The area is adjacent to the upcoming Deira Central business hub and the future Dubai Islands Mall, both of which are expected to attract tourism, increase foot traffic, and support capital appreciation for nearby assets. Planned future metro connectivity will further enhance mobility and long-term value.
As Dubai’s population approaches 7.8 million by 2040 and prime coastal land becomes scarce, Island B stands out as one of the most compelling lifestyle and investment destinations in the city — offering early-mover advantage in a government-backed, master-planned waterfront enclave.
