5* Service in UAE Residential Properties

Premium developments in the UAE offer service on par with five-star hotels.

The concept mirrors hotel living, but with the comfort of your own home.

What Is Included

The range of services depends on the project and operator. Residents typically have access to:

☑️Personal Manager
☑️Valet and Driver
☑️Chef and Fitness Trainer
☑️Property Management and Rental Assistance

Some services are included in the service charge, while others are billed separately.

How Much It Costs

According to CBRE, price per m² in these residences runs 40%–60% higher than in a standard premium segment.

The service charge averages $75–$151 per m², compared to $43–$54 in other projects.

Branded Residences

This model is especially pronounced in branded projects.

Around 38% of these in Dubai are managed by hotel operators. Some are developed in partnership with automotive and fashion brands.

▫️Armani Residences – services from Armani Hotel Dubai, Armani/SPA, and restaurants

▫️Bugatti Residences by Binghatti – driver services, personal chef, and valet parking. In 2025, one of residences was sold for $150 million

▫️Bulgari Resort & Residences – Bulgari Marina & Yacht Club, housekeeping, delivery, and butler services

5* service and brand directly affect rental rates and an asset's liquidity. However, this comes with some risks:

☑️Service Charges Tend to Rise Over Time
☑️Service Quality Depends Not Just on Brand, but on Operator
