Al Badia Living is a masterpiece thoughtfully crafted through extensive market research to meet the growing demand for community-focused living, lifestyle hubs, and sports spaces. Its design transcends mere construction, focusing on creating a vibrant, inclusive community. Seamlessly aligned with Dubai Festival City’s identity as a holistic destination, the development combines resort-style amenities with a lively atmosphere where indoor sophistication meets the charm of outdoor serenity. Offering an exceptional blend of world-class residential, commercial, and lifestyle experiences, Al Badia Living reflects a vision of modern living deeply rooted in sustainability and urban harmony.
Embodying Dubai’s broader ambition for eco-conscious urban integration, Al Badia Living redefines connected living. “With high-quality, sustainable spaces and an ethos prioritising community and the environment, it is a beacon of the city’s drive toward a greener, more connected future. It’s more than a residence—a lifestyle where innovation, sustainability, and community come together to create an elevated way of life,” shares Murali Serpakkam, Managing Director of Al Futtaim Contracting Group.
Designed for families, couples, and individuals seeking an active, community-centred lifestyle, Al Badia Living ensures that every detail enhances modern living. Catering to this dynamic audience, the development boasts state-of-the-art fitness centres, shimmering swimming pools, a vibrant dog park, and inviting BBQ areas—all crafted to foster wellness and connection. The community-centric approach ensures that residents experience a true sense of belonging, making Al Badia Living more than just a residence.
Convenience and community intertwine at Al Badia Living with curated programming that fosters meaningful connections among neighbours. Residents enjoy the ease of an on-site café, pharmacy, and concierge services, blending comfort with accessibility. The Al-Futtaim ecosystem enhances this experience by offering value-added perks like a customisable IKEA and Ace bundle, allowing tenants to tailor their homes before moving in. This ensures a seamless transition into a lifestyle that is as vibrant and enriching as the community itself. Al Badia Living is more than a home—it’s an invitation to thrive in a space where convenience, community, and modern living converge beautifully.
Murali highlights, “The project embraces a wide array of sustainable design elements and eco-friendly practices, prioritising environmental stewardship and operational efficiency. Targeting LEED Silver certification underscores a strong commitment to sustainability with energy-efficient infrastructure and innovative features such as solar panels, even in shaded car parks, to significantly reduce energy consumption.” The community also champions green mobility with EV charging stations, ensuring seamless accessibility for electric vehicles. Sustainability is ingrained in every phase, from design and construction to ongoing operations, employing cutting-edge technologies to optimise energy use over time. These thoughtful measures reflect a forward-thinking, holistic approach to sustainable urban living, setting a new benchmark for eco-conscious developments.
“Additionally, Al Badia Living aligns perfectly with the Dubai Festival City master plan, offering residents unparalleled convenience and lifestyle advantages,” adds Murali. The development is seamlessly connected to world-class shopping, dining, and entertainment venues, with walkable pathways and complimentary shuttle services providing easy access to Dubai Festival City Mall, Al Areesh Club, and top educational institutions. Combining waterfront dining with urban accessibility, Al Badia Living reimagines modern living, delivering a harmonious blend of indoor comfort and outdoor energy within a thoughtfully designed, vibrant community.
Moreover, Al Badia Living captures the essence of modern living by addressing the growing demand for community-focused spaces that prioritise lifestyle and connection. Rooted in the philosophy of thriving together, this market-driven development blends active spaces, lifestyle programming, and sustainability, creating a haven where residents feel truly at home.
Murali says, “Every element has been thoughtfully curated to cater to contemporary preferences—whether it’s the inviting amenities or the effortless access to Dubai Festival City’s world-class shopping, dining, and leisure experiences.” A development project of more than a hundred villas just next to the current community is set to launch towards the end of 2025, further meeting market demand for 4- and 5-bedroom villas. The initial market feedback on Al Badia Living has been overwhelmingly positive.
Since its launch just a few months ago, over 80 apartments have been leased, highlighting strong demand for its offerings. Residents have enthusiastically embraced the leasing model, which provides premium living arrangements managed by a reputable landlord and a trusted brand like Al-Futtaim. “There has also been significant interest in the thoughtfully designed amenities and lifestyle programming, which are tailored to enhance the overall quality of life and create a vibrant, community-centric living experience,” concludes Murali.
