Al Thuraya Island

by Ajmal Makan

On a private island within Sharjah Waterfront City, Al Thuraya Island offers five to eight-bedroom villas of considerable scale. Ranging up to 25,000 square feet, each residence combines waterfront views with private beach access and comprehensive community amenities.

The development is distinguished by its island setting within the larger Sharjah Waterfront City masterplan. The distinctive architecture and natural surroundings create an environment where residents experience both seclusion and proximity to urban Sharjah, with the community positioned to offer serene living whilst remaining accessible to the wider city's attractions and conveniences.

A private beach spanning 564,344 square feet provides residents with direct waterfront access, white sand, and unobstructed views across the Arabian Gulf. Extensive landscaping across the island encompasses approximately 1.3 million square feet of vegetation that enhances privacy and encourages both solitary retreat and community gathering. The planting creates fluid transitions between private and shared outdoor spaces.

Amenities include swimming facilities, gymnasiums, dining establishments, recreational areas for children, and a dedicated beach club. A cycle track supports active leisure, whilst a mosque serves the spiritual needs of residents. The community welcomes pets, broadening its appeal to diverse households seeking a comprehensive island lifestyle.
