Sobha Hartland Overview
Sobha Hartland is the flagship and largest community in Sobha Realty's Dubai portfolio, located within Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City). The community spans a total of 8 million square feet, of which 2.4 million square feet (roughly a third of the total area) is dedicated to green space and amenities — which the company markets as one of the largest urban "green belts" among Dubai's residential developments. Per the latest published figures, Hartland's population currently exceeds 20,000 residents.
Developer
Sobha Realty.
Location
Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City), Dubai — close to Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, and Emirates Golf Club (around a 20-minute drive). Downtown Dubai is roughly 24 minutes away, and the airport around 30 minutes, per the project's official page.
Project Type
An integrated waterfront residential community combining apartment towers, villas, and townhouses within a single masterplan, with schools, a retail center, and recreational and sports facilities.
Unit Types and Sub-Projects
Apartments: Waves Opulence · Creek Vistas Heights · The Crest · Creek Vistas Grande · Crest Grande · Creek Vistas · One Park Avenue · Creek Vistas Reserve · Sobha Hartland Greens
Villas and townhouses: Sobha Gardenia Villas · Sobha Hartland Forest Villas · Sobha Garden Houses (townhouses)
Sobha Hartland II: A subsequent phase/project within the same MBR City area, officially listed as a separate community on the company's community list, comprising apartments and villas (one to four bedrooms). We did not find sufficient official detail from Sobha Realty itself on Hartland II's exact unit count or official pricing separate from the original Hartland — any figure circulating on broker sites (such as prices starting from around AED 1.7 million) is an unofficial third-party figure and should be verified directly before relying on it.
Prices — What Is Confirmed
We did not find an official price list issued directly by Sobha Realty for Hartland or Hartland II units at the time of writing this guide. Any price figure seen on broker platforms (Property Finder, Bayut, and others) represents a third-party primary- or secondary-market listing, not necessarily the developer's current official price. For an accurate, current price: identify the specific sub-project (e.g., Creek Vistas Grande or Sobha Gardenia Villas), the unit type, and the verification date, and contact Sobha Realty directly or a RERA-licensed broker.
Payment Plan
No unified payment plan details for all Hartland projects were published in the official sources reviewed. Payment plans for Sobha projects are typically announced per sub-project at launch, and may differ from one building to another within the same community — so one payment plan should not be generalized across all of Hartland.
Construction Status & Handover
The original Hartland is a mature, partially occupied community (currently more than 20,000 residents), while the company's record 2026 handover plan (6,819 units total across several projects) includes units from both Hartland and Hartland II within its announced list. We did not find a detailed handover schedule broken out by individual sub-building.
Amenities
Two international schools and nurseries, a retail center and shops, a sports café, gyms, swimming pools, tennis courts, playgrounds, cafes and restaurants, and recreational spaces — per the project's official description.
Community & Nearby Landmarks
The location combines an urban character with green space, directly close to Dubai's major landmarks (Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall) and a nature reserve (Ras Al Khor) at once — a relatively distinctive marketing position among Dubai's waterfront projects.
Investment Potential
Hartland being one of Sobha's oldest and most mature communities (a population exceeding 20,000 and several completed or near-complete sub-projects) gives it an advantage in available secondary-market and rental data compared to newer projects like Sanctuary or Sobha City. This does not necessarily mean higher returns or greater investment safety — maturity may also mean most early (off-plan) entry opportunities are no longer available, and any current purchase would be at more mature market pricing.
Rental Potential
We did not find official or independent rental yield data specific to Hartland in this research. Any yield figure circulating on broker sites should be treated as an unverified estimate until confirmed by an independent source such as actual registered rental data.
Pros
- One of Sobha's most mature and largest communities in Dubai, with green space representing a third of the masterplan
- Wide variety of unit types (12 sub-projects across apartments, villas, and townhouses)
- Central location close to Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, and Ras Al Khor Sanctuary
Cons
- No unified official prices or payment plans published for all sub-projects
- Official Hartland II details (pricing, unit count) are limited in available sources
- Being a mature community means most entry opportunities may be on the secondary market at prices above original launch
Who Should Buy?
Buyers looking for a relatively integrated, mature community (rather than an early-stage project), with a preference for variety between apartments and villas within a central location close to Dubai's major landmarks.
Who Should Avoid?
Investors specifically seeking early off-plan entry prices at the lowest price points may find better opportunities in Sobha's newer projects such as Sanctuary or Sobha City Abu Dhabi, where initial launch phases are still available.
FAQ

What is the difference between Sobha Hartland and Hartland II? Hartland is the original and larger community in the area, while Hartland II is a subsequent project officially listed as a separate community on Sobha Realty's list; we did not find sufficient official detail separating its pricing or units from the original Hartland independently.
What is Sobha Hartland's population? More than 20,000 residents, per the latest figures announced by the company (July 2026).
Are there official prices for Hartland units? There is no unified official price published by Sobha Realty for all sub-projects at the time of writing; the current price for each sub-project should be confirmed directly.
How many sub-projects are within Hartland? Nine apartment projects and three villa/townhouse projects per the official page, plus Hartland II as a separate project.
Key Takeaways
- Hartland is Sobha Realty's most mature and largest Dubai community, with 12 sub-projects and more than 20,000 residents.
- There are no unified official prices or payment plans — each sub-project must be evaluated individually.
- Official Hartland II details are limited compared to the original Hartland, and require follow-up.
Investment Perspective
Sobha Hartland's maturity as a partially completed community makes it a different proposition from Sobha's entirely new projects — closer to "buying into a proven community" than "early entry on a growth bet." This positioning suits a buyer seeking relative stability more than an investor chasing maximum early-entry opportunities.
