BEYOND Developments has officially launched SHIONE, a residential community valued at AED 3 billion (approximately $817 million), as part of its SIORA beachfront masterplan on Dubai Islands. This project features two residential towers, comprising 603 residences, and aims to cater to a diverse demographic, including first-time buyers and international investors.
Unveiled on Wednesday, SHIONE is strategically located on Island B of the SIORA masterplan, which is designed to integrate contemporary residential living with wellness and leisure amenities. The development includes a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, as well as three- and four-bedroom duplexes, offering a total of 38 different typologies and over 150 layouts. This variety is intended to meet the needs of a broad audience, reflecting BEYOND’s commitment to creating inclusive living spaces.
Architectural Design and Community Features
SHIONE consists of two towers, one 21 stories high and the other 20, each designed with a unique identity while maintaining a cohesive architectural language. The buildings feature clean horizontal lines and signature bridges that lead to expansive terraces, providing residents with views of the sea and the surrounding masterplan.
Adil Taqi, CEO of BEYOND Developments, emphasized the project’s appeal to a global audience, noting that buyers already represent 70 nationalities, with significant interest from Turkish, British, and German investors. “SHIONE is designed for that global audience,” Taqi stated, highlighting the project’s aim to offer quality coastal living to a wider demographic.
Wellness-Centric Design and Amenities
Building on the success of HADO, the first residential project within SIORA, SHIONE prioritizes wellness in its design. The masterplan spans over 2 million square feet and is inspired by Japanese garden philosophy, promoting a serene living environment. More than 70% of the area is dedicated to green spaces, featuring landscaped grounds and a 6 km stretch of sandy beach.
SHIONE’s amenities include a health club, yoga studios, and various leisure spaces, all designed to foster a sense of community and well-being. The project also incorporates retail and dining options, with 14 units planned to enhance daily convenience for residents.
Future Outlook and Handover Timeline
The handover of SHIONE is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2030, aligning with the ongoing development of Dubai Islands, which has seen significant residential sales activity. According to Dubai Land Department records, the area recorded approximately AED 18.8 billion in residential sales across 5,035 transactions in the year leading up to September 28, 2026.
As BEYOND Developments continues to shape SIORA into a premier waterfront community, SHIONE represents a significant step in enhancing Dubai’s appeal as a global residential destination, offering a blend of luxury, wellness, and community living.
