Binghatti Moonlight Al Jaddaf Dubai

Binghatti Moonlight is a mixed-use tower in Al Jaddaf by Binghatti Developers: four basements, a ground floor, three podiums and 18 residential floors. Most sources count 236 apartments — 126 one-bedrooms, 106 two-bedrooms and 4 three-bedrooms — plus 47 offices and 3 shops. One-bedrooms of 746 sq ft start at AED 1,429,999 (about Rs 3.68 crore) on a 20/50/30 plan.

The handover date needs checking first. Most sources print Q2 2026, which has passed with no delivery confirmed, and one prints Q1 2027. There are no studios here, which sets Moonlight apart from Binghatti's other Al Jaddaf towers: it is a one and two-bedroom building for end users and longer-let tenants.

At a glance

Price and unit pricing

We print AED 1,429,999 because it is the entry figure most sources give. Four others circulate, up to AED 1.6 million on one broker page, and the cheapest listing asks on Property Finder start near AED 1.2 million, with an average near AED 1.8 million. With 153 flats listed in one tower, investors who bought early are selling, and some are asking less than the developer. Binghatti's current price list and the unit's floor plan settle what you should pay.

Against the district, Moonlight is at the top of the range. Al Jaddaf guides put rates at roughly AED 1,200 to 1,900 per sq ft; the one-bedroom at about AED 1,917 sits right at the top, the two-bedroom at about AED 2,039 above it, and the three-bedroom at about AED 1,850 inside it. The one-bedroom also comes with a study, which the sizes above include.

Payment plan and total cost

20% on booking, 50% during construction, 30% at handover. Worked on the AED 1,429,999 one-bedroom:

In a building past its first handover date, the construction slice is mostly already due. Binghatti ties instalments to milestones, and milestones already reached are payable at or soon after booking, so a buyer now may owe close to 70% within weeks and the last 30% within months. Ask for the statement of milestones reached before you sign.

No service charge is published for Moonlight. The nearest published figure in the district is Binghatti Creek at about AED 15.36 per sq ft a year, about AED 11,460 on a 746 sq ft one-bedroom. In a mixed-use building, ask Binghatti how costs are split between the residential and commercial owners, and get the residential rate in writing.

Location and connectivity

Al Jaddaf sits on the south bank of Dubai Creek between Dubai Healthcare City and Ras Al Khor, with Sheikh Rashid Road and Al Khail Road at its edges. Moonlight is on the Jaddaf Waterfront side, near Culture Village, the Jameel Arts Centre and the Creek promenade.

District guides put Downtown Dubai about 10 minutes away off-peak, DIFC and Business Bay 10 to 12, and Dubai International Airport about 12. Al Jadaf Metro on the Green Line is inside the district. The area is filling in quickly, and many of the district's newer towers are Binghatti's, so expect construction nearby and plenty of competing stock for tenants.

For comparison in our current set, Ellington's Creek-front Art Bay costs more for a smaller building, and Azizi Leily offers studios from under AED 1 million with a later handover. Everything we track in the emirate is on all Dubai projects, and the wider list is on the projects page.

Amenities and specifications

Quoted for the tower: a rooftop infinity pool, a gym, wellness zones, seating areas, a landscaped podium, pet-friendly areas and office amenities, with shops on the ground floor. One-bedrooms are quoted with a study, built-in wardrobes, a fitted kitchen and a balcony.

Not published: the appliance schedule, parking per unit, the service-charge budget and the escrow bank. In a mixed-use tower, ask whether residents have a separate lobby and lifts from the offices. Final specification as per the SPA.

About the developer

Binghatti Developers, founded in 2008 and run under Binghatti Holding, is Dubai's busiest volume builder below AED 2 million and designs and contracts largely in-house, which is how it builds towers in two to three years. In the first half of 2026 it reported revenue of AED 9.5 billion, net profit of AED 3 billion and about 1,700 homes handed over, and it has said it plans around 15 deliveries in 2026.

Its timing is the weak side. Independent trackers put its on-time handover rate near 78%, and in Al Jaddaf itself Binghatti Ghost was completed in August 2026 after a Q1 date, while Binghatti Starlight is past its March 2026 date. Binghatti finishes its buildings; it does not always finish them in the quarter it advertised. Other Binghatti projects we cover are on our Binghatti Dubai projects page.

For Indian buyers

Ownership. Al Jaddaf is freehold for foreign buyers, resident or not, and the Dubai Land Department issues the title deed in your name. The UAE has no annual property tax and no VAT on a residential sale, so the government cost is the 4% DLD transfer fee — about AED 57,200 on the one-bedroom — plus the AED 40 Oqood fee.

Remittance. The Liberalised Remittance Scheme allows USD 250,000 per person per financial year. The AED 1,429,999 one-bedroom is about USD 389,000: more than one person's allowance but inside a couple's USD 500,000. Because most of the price may fall due within months in a late-stage building, a single buyer should plan the second year's remittance before booking, not after.

Golden Visa. The threshold is AED 2 million of property. The one-bedroom misses it by about AED 570,000 and the two-bedroom by about AED 100,000. The three-bedroom at AED 3,046,999 clears it by about AED 1.05 million, and there are only four of them.

Rent and tax. No rent is published for Moonlight. District guides quote Al Jaddaf gross yields near 5.7%, with one-bedrooms around 6%; on AED 1,429,999 that needs about AED 85,800 a year. Subtract a service charge near AED 11,460 and the net falls to about 5.2%. Rent and any capital gain are taxable in India for an Indian tax resident; the UAE levies no income tax on the rent.

Pros

• 1 BHK at about AED 1,917 per sq ft sits inside the district's AED 1,200 to 1,900 band at its top end, with a study included
• The 3 BHK at about AED 1,850 per sq ft is the cheapest per foot and clears the Golden Visa threshold
• Metro in the district and Downtown about 10 minutes away
• A late-stage off-plan purchase: the wait to keys should be short
• Binghatti builds in-house and delivers at volume: about 1,700 homes in the first half of 2026
• Many units on the resale market (153 listings on Property Finder) give room to negotiate

Cons

• The Q2 2026 date has passed and no source confirms completion
• Unit count printed two ways (236 apartments or 184 homes), so check the floor plans
• 20% on booking and much of the 50% may fall due quickly in a building this far along
• Binghatti's on-time rate is near 78%; two of its Al Jaddaf towers have missed their dates
• A 1 BHK misses the AED 2 M Golden Visa threshold by about AED 570,000
• Offices and shops in the same building mean more traffic through the lobby

Who this is for

• Buyers who want a one or two-bedroom near Downtown and the metro, with keys soon
• Golden Visa buyers who can stretch to the 3 BHK at about AED 3.05 M
• Bargain hunters willing to compare the developer list with the resale asks in the same tower
• Landlords targeting Dubai Healthcare City and Downtown workers

Who should look elsewhere

• Anyone who needs a confirmed handover date before paying
• Buyers who want a studio: there are none
• Buyers who cannot fund most of the price within months
• Anyone who prefers a purely residential building

Our verdict

Moonlight is a late-stage Binghatti tower in a district the developer knows well, priced at about AED 1,917 per sq ft on the one-bedroom — the top of the Al Jaddaf band, with a study included — and about AED 1,850 on the three-bedroom. The location is good for a tenant: metro in the district, Downtown ten minutes away, the healthcare cluster next door. The problems are in the paperwork. The Q2 2026 date has passed with no delivery confirmed, the unit count is printed two ways, and the entry price appears at four different figures. Binghatti's Al Jaddaf record says it will finish, but not necessarily when it said. With 153 flats listed for sale in the tower, compare the developer's list with the resale asks before paying the developer's price.

A fair buy for a one or two-bedroom buyer who wants keys soon near Downtown, if the price is checked against the resale asks in the same building. The three-bedroom is the Golden Visa unit and the best value per foot. Get the completion date, the construction percentage and the milestone schedule in writing before paying the 20%.

Other pages print AED 1,450,000, AED 1,534,079 and AED 1.6 million for the entry, and listing asks start near AED 1.2 million. Binghatti's current price list settles it.

What is the payment plan?

20% on booking, 50% during construction and 30% at handover. On AED 1,429,999 that is about AED 286,000, AED 715,000 and AED 429,000, plus AED 57,200 of DLD fee.

When is the handover?

Most sources print Q2 2026, which has passed without any confirmed delivery; one prints Q1 2027. The SPA date binds the developer, and the Dubai REST app shows the construction percentage.

How many homes are there?

Most sources say 236 apartments — 126 one-bedrooms, 106 two-bedrooms and 4 three-bedrooms — with 47 offices and 3 shops. One source says 184 homes and 50 commercial units. Ask for the building's floor plans.

Does it qualify for a Golden Visa?

Only the three-bedroom. The threshold is AED 2 million; the one-bedroom misses by about AED 570,000 and the two-bedroom by about AED 100,000. The three-bedroom at AED 3,046,999 clears it by about AED 1.05 million.

What rent and service charge should I expect?

Neither is published for Moonlight. District guides quote one-bedroom gross yields around 6%, which on AED 1,429,999 means about AED 85,800 a year. The nearest published service charge is Binghatti Creek's AED 15.36 per sq ft, about AED 11,460 a year on 746 sq ft.

Can an Indian resident buy here?

Yes. Al Jaddaf is freehold for foreign buyers and the DLD issues the title deed in your name. Under the LRS each person can remit USD 250,000 a financial year; the one-bedroom is about USD 389,000, so a couple can fund it in one year.
