Cheval South Bay
Dubai South signs agreement with Cheval Collection to launch Cheval South Bay
Dubai South, the largest single-urban master development focused on aviation, logistics and real estate and Cheval Collection, an award-winning, UK-based luxury hospitality company, have signed an agreement to launch Cheval South Bay.
The development will bring a landmark collection of luxury serviced apartments and branded residences to Dubai South, as part of Cheval Collection’s continued international expansion. Scheduled to open in 2030, the project will comprise 98 serviced hotel apartments, ranging from studios to three-bedroom units, and 95 one-, two- and three-bedroom branded residences.
The agreement was signed at Dubai South HQ in the presence of Nabil Al Kindi, Group CEO of Dubai South and Mohammed Alawadhi, CEO, Cheval Collection, alongside senior executives from both entities.
The development will offer furnished apartments and residences with high-quality finishes, fully equipped kitchens and private balconies. Amenities at the pet-friendly property will include a swimming pool, gym, residents’ lounge and dining outlets.
Cheval South Bay will be located at South Bay, a premium waterfront community at the heart of Dubai South’s Residential District, which features a kilometre-long lagoon. Connected to the announced South Bay Mall, Cheval South Bay will offer direct access to this premium retail and lifestyle destination.
Buyers at Cheval South Bay will benefit from the Cheval DISCOVERY loyalty programme, offered in partnership with the Global Hotel Alliance. Member privileges include rewards and benefits, alongside elite status for branded residence buyers.
Earlier this year, Cheval Collection expanded into the branded residences sector with the launch of Cheval Residences Dubai Islands and, extending the company's hospitality-led approach into luxury residential living.
The opening of Cheval Maison Expo City Dubai increased the portfolio to more than 950 units, while a growing development pipeline will see the brand enter Saudi Arabia with Cheval Ladun Living Riyadh in 2027, followed by Cheval Maison Sulaymaniyah in 2028.
The business continues to pursue growth opportunities through both management agreements and branded residence partnerships across key international markets.
