Project overview
VELA at Marasi Bay: a small collection with materially different home types
VELA is OMNIYAT’s 38-residence waterfront development at Marasi Bay. Foster + Partners is the architect, Gilles & Boissier designs the interiors, and Dorchester Collection provides the residential service proposition.
OMNIYAT identifies a 30-storey development with three- to five-bedroom residences. Its brochure gives 4,253–11,727 sq ft for the residence and penthouse collection, and separately identifies a five-bedroom Sky Palace at 22,992 sq ft. The developer’s current project page targets Q4 2027 completion.
Those categories should not be reduced to a single “luxury apartment” comparison. Clarify the exact residence type, internal and external area allocation, pool arrangement and service specification. A larger overall area can conceal a different balance of indoor rooms and terraces, which changes how a home works in everyday use.

Sheraz Properties buyer perspective
Who It May Suit & What to Check
Who should compare it
Buyers seeking a large-format waterfront residence with an explicitly named hospitality service provider may find VELA relevant, particularly when comparing residence categories rather than only bedroom counts.
What to resolve before reserving
Confirm unit-specific area definitions, the scope and cost of services, and any facilities shared with neighbouring properties. Ask for the latest completion programme and a clear account of what is included in the sale.
The buyer perspective is editorial analysis. It is separate from the developer’s published project specifications.
