BEYOND Developments has launched SIORA, its first beachfront masterplan on Dubai Islands and its second large-scale community in less than a year. The project reflects the developer’s continued growth and its alignment with Dubai’s long-term urban development goals.
SIORA covers more than 2 million square feet and is designed as a coastal retreat influenced by Japanese garden principles. The masterplan draws on the idea of Ikigai, which focuses on purpose and fulfilment in daily life. The concept guides the creation of spaces that support balance, clarity and wellbeing, while strengthening the connection between people, nature and place.
Commenting on the launch, Adil Taqi, CEO of BEYOND Developments, said: “Since its inception in 2024, BEYOND had an exceptional journey with nine launches in 2025 that delivered opportunities for a wider audience to experience a richer and more meaningful life. Today, I am thrilled to announce the launch of SIORA, the company’s second cluster masterplan and bold new expansion into beachfront destinations, spanning over 2 million sqft with 2.7 million sqft of GFA on the beautiful Dubai Islands.”
“This masterplan aims to define the next generation of urban coastal living, in line with Dubai’s inspirational 2040 Urban Master Plan that puts wellbeing, walkability, and nature at the heart of community life. It embodies our vision for future waterfront living environments where where design excellence, natural beauty, and emotional connection come together to empower people to live balanced experiences and connect purposefully with nature and the community.” added Taqi.
Over the past year, BEYOND Developments has completed nine launches, attracted residents and investors from more than 40 countries, and surpassed AED 10 billion in sales. This progress highlights growing confidence in the company’s design-led strategy.
Taqi emphasised: “SIORA represents the next phase of BEYOND’s expansion across Dubai’s coastline. It reflects our commitment to creating thoughtfully designed communities that carry lasting value and deeper meaning for a global audience. SIORA will introduce a new benchmark for waterfront living on Dubai Islands, a complete coastal ecosystem of homes, hospitality, and lifestyle experiences.”
SIORA is planned as a walkable coastal district shaped by its natural setting. More than 70 percent of the site is dedicated to open space, with over 1.5 million square feet of landscaped areas that improve comfort and access to the shoreline. A continuous 6-kilometre beachfront forms a central part of everyday life within the community.
Shaded walkways and landscaped terraces support movement and social interaction while helping manage heat and framing views of the sea. Public spaces also feature curated cultural and artistic elements, including sculptural installations influenced by Japanese design, which contribute to the area’s identity.
Sustainability forms a core part of SIORA’s planning. Wind, water and light guide ventilation and climate comfort, reflecting Japanese garden philosophy. The project marks the start of BEYOND’s long-term presence on Dubai Islands and supports a design-focused approach to future coastal development.
