The Acres Estates

The Acres Estates is an exclusive villa collection by Meraas within The Acres, a nature-focused residential community in Dubai land. Designed for buyers seeking greater privacy, architectural distinction, and generous family living, the development introduces a limited collection of 84 standalone 5-, 6-, and 7-bedroom villas across two carefully considered design concepts. The Ivory Collection draws nature directly into the architecture through internal landscaped elements, lofty spaces, extensive glazing, stone detailing, and organic forms. The Amber Collection creates a more private estate-style atmosphere, with landscaped gardens, sophisticated material palettes, expansive living areas, and strong visual connections to the outdoors.

Nature shapes the wider community as much as the residences themselves. Swimmable lagoons, waterways, themed gardens, parks, walking and cycling routes, community facilities, and landscaped gathering spaces are woven throughout the masterplan. Around 75% of The Acres Estates villas overlook one of the community gardens, while every Estates cluster includes its own internal park. With an estimated handover in February 2028, The Acres Estates by Meraas offers a distinctive option for buyers searching for luxury villas in Dubai surrounded by greenery while remaining well connected to established destinations across the city.

Architecture Inspired by Nature

The architectural identity of The Acres Estates is built around the relationship between refined interiors and the surrounding landscape. Lofty ceilings, expansive glazing, bespoke finishes, natural materials, courtyards, landscaped gardens, terraces, and generous living areas are used to create homes that feel closely connected to their environment. Rather than following a single architectural expression, the project is divided into two distinct collections.

Ivory Collection

The Ivory Collection is designed around the idea of bringing nature into the home. A signature tree forms a striking centerpiece within the collection, while carefully selected materials, organic architecture, glass façades, and stone accents strengthen the connection between internal spaces and landscaped surroundings. The collection includes 5-, 6-, and 7-bedroom villas, each designed to maximize light, openness, and views toward courtyards and gardens.

Amber Collection

The Amber Collection takes a more secluded estate-style approach, placing landscaped gardens around the residences to reinforce both privacy and a sense of natural calm. Expansive glass openings, refined stone and timber finishes, open living areas, balconies, terraces, and carefully composed garden views create a sophisticated indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The Amber Collection is also available in 5-, 6-, and 7-bedroom configurations.

Luxury Villas at The Acres Estates

5-Bedroom Villas

The 5-bedroom villas provide spacious two-level family residences across both the Ivory and Amber collections. In the Ivory Collection, organic architecture, immersive glass façades, stone detailing, and abundant daylight create bright interiors with a strong connection to the landscape. Amber 5-bedroom villas emphasize seamless indoor-outdoor living, with large glass openings allowing the main living areas to extend visually toward the garden and surrounding greenery. Both designs cater to families seeking multiple living spaces, private bedroom zones, generous entertaining areas, and a refined residential environment.

6-Bedroom Villas

The 6-bedroom villas provide increased accommodation for larger families while maintaining the landscape-led philosophy of The Acres Estates. Within the Ivory Collection, rooms are oriented toward beautifully landscaped courtyards, introducing greenery and natural light throughout the home while creating a calm residential atmosphere. Amber 6-bedroom villas combine double-height spaces with a sophisticated material palette of stone, timber, glass, and metallic detailing. The resulting interiors balance architectural scale with warmth and a sense of connection to nature.

7-Bedroom Villas

The 7-bedroom villas form the largest and most exclusive residences within The Acres Estates. The Ivory Collection adopts a refined minimalist aesthetic, with a distinctive water element shaping the arrival experience and expansive accommodation arranged across multiple levels. Amber 7-bedroom villas are designed with entertaining in mind, incorporating multiple open terraces and sun-filled balconies that create generous settings for gatherings while remaining closely connected to the surrounding lagoon and landscape. These residences are suited to buyers seeking substantial private homes with multiple family, guest, entertainment, and outdoor living zones.

A Masterplan of Natural Living

The Acres is structured around an integrated network of landscaped parks, swimmable lagoons, waterways, community facilities, and pedestrian-friendly routes. The Halo Loop Park surrounds the community’s lagoons and connects neighborhoods through open green spaces, helping residents move comfortably between homes, parks, recreation areas, and everyday amenities. Approximately 28% of the community is allocated to open space, while every villa is positioned within approximately a three-minute walk of a park.
