Ohana launches $1.28bn beachfront project with Jacob & Co
Ohana Development, a leading real estate developer renowned for its luxury properties, has officially launched 'Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana' in partnership with iconic timepiece and jewellery house Jacob & Co. The project was revealed at an exclusive event held at Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, Abu Dhabi, on May 12, in the presence of Husein Salem, CEO of Ohana Development, and Jacob Arabo, Chairman and Creative Director of Jacob & Co. Located in Al Jurf between Dubai and Abu Dhabi, this AED4.7 billion ($1.28 billion) landmark blends breathtaking natural surroundings with exceptional artistry and craftsmanship. With direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road, the development enjoys seamless connectivity to the UAE's key destinations, including Abu Dhabi International Airport, Palm Jebel Ali, and Al Maktoum International Airport, the developer said. Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana presents a collection of 457 residences comprising seaview apartments, villas, penthouses, Sky Mansions and beachfront mansions — each thoughtfully designed to embody refined coastal living. For those desiring more space and refinement, the opulent penthouses feature 180-degree views and expansive interiors, starting from AED22 million. Crowned at the top are the Sky Mansions — spacious rooftop residences offering 360-degree views and dedicated private elevators for ultimate exclusivity, starting from AED77 million. Additionally, fully customisable 3- to 6-bedroom villas and mansions — each featuring a private pool — are available with peaceful natural reserve views or as canal-front locations, while the Beachfront Mansions deliver unmatched scale and panoramic sea views, setting a new benchmark for refined design and luxury living. Husein Salem said: 'Our vision for Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana is to elevate the beachfront living experience by developing an exclusive sanctuary along the coast. Through this collaboration with Jacob & Co., we are setting a new benchmark for what beachfront residences can embody in the UAE. More than just a residential community, we are crafting a destination—a seaside haven where curated experiences, timeless elegance, and natural tranquillity converge to offer a lifestyle of distinction.' Jacob Arabo added: 'Working closely with Ohana Development, we have woven our legacy of artistic excellence and ultra-luxury lifestyle into every aspect of this endeavour. Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana is our tribute to coastal artistry, where visionary design, craftsmanship, and the allure of the sea merge to create unparalleled homes.' At the heart of the development is the Jacob & Co. Social Club, a world-first concept in exclusive living. The club features the first branded Seafront Cigar Lounge by Jacob & Co., an executive business centre with private meeting suites, and the world's first members-only Jacob & Co. Residents Club, showcasing a curated watch gallery alongside rotating art exhibitions. Designed to elevate everyday living, the resort-style amenities are crafted to deepen the connection to the sea and enhance the residents' lifestyle. Upon arrival, residents are welcomed into a grand entrance and lobby atrium where a striking 10-meter-wide Jacob & Co. ceiling art timepiece — the largest of its kind globally — reimagines the traditional chandelier, setting the tone for an environment where art, innovation, and luxury harmoniously coexist. The development also unveils the world's first Jacob & Co. Beach Club, a vibrant seaside destination offering an array of fine-dining concepts and beachside restaurants, each carefully crafted to celebrate life by the beach. Nestled amidst a protected natural reserve and diverse wildlife, Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana offers an extraordinary opportunity to embrace a lifestyle deeply connected to nature. The architecture features flowing, curved façades inspired by the movement of the sea, while the buildings' forms subtly reflect the initials 'J' and 'C' in homage to Jacob & Co. Scheduled for completion by Q2 2028, Jacob & Co. Beachfront Living by Ohana is poised to become a global benchmark in luxury beachfront living, setting new standards for residential elegance in the UAE and beyond.
