One Crescent

Just 25 residences occupy this nine-storey, wave-form building on the East Crescent, designed by Shaun Killa — the architect behind the Museum of the Future and Dubai Opera. Every home, from the three-bedroom penthouses up through five-bedroom Sky Villas to two six-bedroom Sky Mansions, comes with its own private pool and terrace, a rarity even by Palm Jumeirah's ultra-luxury standards. Sky Mansions start at AED 185 million. A 24/7 luxury concierge, dedicated chauffeur service, screening room and cigar lounge round out an offer built entirely around scarcity rather than scale — with only 25 homes in the building, this is one of the smallest true ultra-prime developments the Palm has produced.
