Supremely spacious
Breathtaking views
Step into serenity
VELA enchants from the moment you arrive. Ascend its lofty heights into your own residence, and relax into a serene way of life that flows as elegantly as the rippling water in your wraparound pool.
Where city meets sea
Vibrant, glittering Downtown Dubai surrounds you, while the peaceful Marasi Bay waterfront gives you immediate access to the tranquillity of the sea – and marina moorings just below the residences.
Sublime perspectives
Designed by award-winning firm Foster + Partners, VELA’s elegant architecture is inspired by Marasi Bay’s fluidity and beauty. Glass balconies ensure uninterrupted views, while L-shaped corner pools – found nowhere else in Dubai – encircle each residence.
A breath of fresh air
Indoor/outdoor living elevated to an exquisite art. Created by Parisian designer duo Gilles & Bossier, VELA’s interiors draw on their natural surroundings to create refined spaces that are dramatic, yet calming.
Made for you
From exercising in the infinity lap pool and soaring triple-height gym, relaxing in the cinema room, spa suite and salon, or letting your little ones play in the kids’ room, all VELA’s amenities are designed to make your day-to-day life even better.
The best of care
Dorchester Collection’s warm hospitality offers a life of graceful ease. With the same attentive service we offer the guests in our hotels, you’ll have access to a 24/7 concierge, a personal valet, and doorman and porter services. We’re here to look after you.
