Beyond Properties in Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah

The short answer

Beyond is a development company the Omniyat group launched on 12 September 2024, for what Omniyat calls the wider luxury market: a broader band of buyers than its own ultra-luxury towers reach. Omniyat was founded in 2005 by Mahdi Amjad, still its executive chairman. Beyond’s chief executive is Adil Taqi.

Beyond started with a waterfront masterplan in Dubai Maritime City, the peninsula beside Port Rashid. Omniyat announced the plan with Dubai Maritime City, and Beyond’s share is about 743,000 m² (8 million sq ft). Most of its towers are there. It has since added two towers on Palm Jumeirah’s West Crescent, three beach towers on Dubai Islands and a low-rise cluster in City of Arabia, Dubailand. Its first project outside Dubai is on Marjan Beach in Ras Al Khaimah.

Track record so far

Beyond is new, and that is the main thing to weigh. None of the buildings it has launched is finished. Its most advanced, Aria, was 72.9% complete in March 2026, with completion targeted for Q1 2027. The same update put Saria at about 10%. Orise, Sensia and The Mural were between 4% and 7%, still around ground-slab level.

Sales have been quick. Beyond says its first tower, Saria, sold out, and that Sensia sold out within two days of launch. Omniyat’s 2025 results credit Beyond with AED 5.8 billion of sales inside Omniyat Holdings and AED 4.8 billion in a separate company, Beyond Properties DMCC. Fast sales show demand. They don’t show how a developer handles snagging, delays or service charges, and no Beyond buyer has collected keys yet.

Beyond’s website also lists two finished towers in Business Bay: The Pad, completed in 2020, and The Sterling, in 2022. Omniyat built both before Beyond existed. The Pad is a documented delay in the group’s past. It was due for completion in 2010, and in December 2009 Omniyat suspended work and stopped collecting payments, citing questions over Business Bay’s infrastructure. It was finished about ten years late.

What their homes are like

Almost everything Beyond sells is a tower apartment of 1 to 4 bedrooms, with some duplexes, podium chalets and a few penthouses. There are exceptions at both ends. Aria has studios and seafront townhouses. Passo on Palm Jumeirah adds six standalone 6-bedroom beach mansions, and 31 Above is an office tower. Arancia Yards in Dubailand is the low-rise one: three buildings around a 4,200 m² sunken garden.

Beyond leads with design and planting. SAOTA designed Soulever’s two towers, with interiors by ARRCC. The Forest District in Maritime City is planned around 55,000 m² of native woodland. These are still plans and renders, and no one can yet inspect a finished Beyond apartment or its after-sales service. Judge the specification sheet and the floor plan, not the brochure.

Who Beyond suits, and who it doesn’t

Beyond suits a buyer who wants a new sea-view apartment close to old Dubai, is happy to pay in stages until handover, and takes comfort from the Omniyat group behind the brand.

It doesn’t suit a buyer who needs to move in or rent out now: every Beyond home on this site is off-plan, with handovers due from 2027 to 2029 on Beyond’s schedules. A family that needs a school close by should read the Maritime City guide first, as the peninsula has no school and no metro. It is also a weaker fit for anyone who wants a long record of finished buildings under the same name.

Weigh the supply, too. Beyond is building nine projects in Maritime City, and its towers there are due one after another. Expect other owners to be reselling and letting when you are.

What Diamond checks before recommending a Beyond project

• Registration and escrow. In Dubai, buyers’ off-plan payments must go into the project’s escrow account under Law No. 8 of 2007. Diamond checks the project’s registration and escrow on the DLD’s Dubai REST app before any money moves. Le Château falls under Ras Al Khaimah’s own regulator, part of RAK Municipality, and Dubai’s rules don’t apply there.
• Progress against the contract. Beyond publishes construction updates. Diamond compares the latest one with the handover date in the sale agreement, and reads the delay clause.
• The payment plan, in writing. Beyond’s project pages show no prices or payment plans. Diamond gets the current plan and works out how much you pay before handover.
• Which company you contract with. Beyond’s sales are booked by more than one company, so she checks the seller named on the agreement.
• Resale terms. Beyond says Saria and Sensia have sold out, so a purchase there means taking over an owner’s contract. Diamond checks what the seller has paid, what is left, and Beyond’s conditions and fees for the transfer.
• Service charges. A new tower has no history, so she asks for Beyond’s estimate in writing.
