Vela Viento by Omniyat

Omniyat · Business Bay · 25.1860°N, 55.2730°E

Vela Viento is a boutique Omniyat residence in Business Bay on the Dubai Canal edge, with handover planned for 2027. Operated by the luxury hotel group Dorchester Collection (the iconic Dorchester London, Le Meurice Paris, Beverly Hills Hotel). It's Dubai's first Dorchester Collection branded residence.

Just 70 apartments across 35 floors — an ultra-low-density format for a high-rise: 2 units per floor on average. 3-bedroom and larger only, plus penthouses and an exclusive 'Sky Palace' format on upper floors. Sizes 280 m² to 1,500 m² for Sky Palaces.

Architecture by Foster + Partners (the same firm as The Index Tower, Apple Park). The concept: two sail-shaped towers united by a sky-bridge. Interiors meet Dorchester Collection standards: Moroccan marble, Italian kitchens, custom fittings.

Pricing: 3BR from 25M AED, 4BR from 40M, penthouses from 80M, Sky Palaces from 150M. One of Dubai's most expensive off-plan projects.

Story

01Origin2021 — 2023 · CONCEPT

«Nobody made a Dorchester residence in Dubai. It's a gap that must be filled.»

OMNIYAT × DORCHESTER COLLECTION · 2023

Omniyat is known for working only with top architects and brands (The Opus with Zaha Hadid, ONE at Palm with Soma Architects). By 2021, Omniyat had begun negotiations with Dorchester Collection — one of the world's most exclusive hotel groups — for a first Dubai residence project. Foster + Partners was selected to match the partnership's international tier.

02Launch2023 — 2024 · LAUNCH

Sales launched in 2023 with starting prices from 25M AED for a 3-bedroom. By end-2024, around 70% of units had been sold — impressive pace for the ultra-luxury segment. Buyers are international ultra-high-net-worth individuals from the UK, India, CIS.

Construction began in 2024. Progress at our database snapshot — around 30%. The sky-bridge between the two towers requires especially precise engineering. Expected handover — 2027. Post-completion, Vela Viento will become one of Dubai's most exclusive addresses.
