The quest to find Dubai’s best home has begun, as 50 stunning properties compete to be named the city’s best place to live.
Launched by PRIME by Betterhomes, Dubai’s Top 50 Homes is an awards ceremony celebrating creative achievements in architecture and interior design.
From beachside villas to high-rise apartments the 50 properties are being put to a public vote as well as being judged by a panel of industry experts.

Richard Waind, Group Managing Director at PRIME by Betterhomes, said: “This is an industry-first competition which is exhilarating. We have created a platform for everyone from around the world to see inside some of Dubai’s most opulent homes.”
Since going live Dubai’s Top 50 Homes competition has witnessed votes from North America, Australia, Asia, Africa and most of Europe, putting the city’s innovative architecture and state-of-the-art interior designs at the forefront of the world.
Palm Jumeirah, a hotspot for high-net-worth buyers, unsurprisingly received the most nominations for the Top 50 Homes contest.
High-end real estate prices in the city have surged by 89% over the past year as an influx of high-net-worth buyers has bolstered the market. This surge has led to unprecedented sales for ultraluxe properties priced at over $10m.
Dubai Marina had the second most nominations, followed by Nad Al Sheba, Jumeirah Islands, Emirates Hills, and Dubai Hills.
Despite global trends, Dubai’s luxury real estate market has shown remarkable resilience, with PRIME by Betterhomes witnessing a 65% increase in luxury transactions (more than AED10m) in January and February, compared to 2022.
Richard Waind said: “’With so many breath-taking homes nominated, we are very excited to see which home will win the People’s Choice Award. We firmly believe that the recipients of the awards will truly deserve this accolade.”
