About Dubai Hills Estate

Your Complete Renovation Guide
for Dubai Hills Estate

Dubai Hills is Dubai's fastest-growing premium community. New phases continue to hand over — the window for first-install pool and landscaping is now.

Dubai Hills villas have appreciated 35–50% since 2022 — outdoor renovation protects and extends this value

Plots in Dubai Hills Estate: 300–700 sqm gardens, many with golf course or park views. The typical outdoor space accommodates a full swimming pool with room for landscaping, pergola and outdoor dining. We survey every plot individually to confirm exact feasibility and the ideal pool placement.
