Arabian Ranches 2

Arabian Ranches 2 is on the inland side of Dubai in the Dubailand district. Emaar describes it as directly adjacent to Arabian Ranches 1, "a seamless extension of the overall Arabian Ranches development", and its Samara press release describes homes reached via Al Qudra Road, right by the Arabian Ranches Golf Club and the Dubai Polo and Equestrian Club. Wikipedia places the wider Arabian Ranches along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), the main route towards the rest of Dubai.

The first Arabian Ranches launched in 2004, and Wikipedia says Emaar followed it with Arabian Ranches 2 and Arabian Ranches 3. Wikipedia describes Arabian Ranches 2 as over 1,724 themed villas and townhouses. Nearby communities include Mudon and Emaar's separate Reem community, which Gulf Business describes as next to the Arabian Ranches extension.

Arabian Ranches 2 main entrance

The community is entered from Al Qudra Road. Emaar's press material describes Camelia as located near the access points to the community, and Samara as reached via Al Qudra Road. If you search a map for "Arabian Ranches 2, main entrance", check which gate is closest to your enclave, because the central enclaves are further from the road.

Many people search for Arabian Ranches 2 by enclave name, such as Reem, Samara, Lila or Casa. These are the enclaves you will see in listings and in Dubai Land Department records. Where Emaar's own material gives the home type, we show it; for the rest, ask for the Emaar floor plan.

Sold prices for the community are in the Dubai Land Department table on this page. Small numbers of sales swing a median a lot, so compare homes within one enclave and one bedroom count.

Reem in Arabian Ranches 2 and the Reem community

"Reem Arabian Ranches 2" and "Arabian Ranches Al Reem 2" can mean two different places. Reem is an enclave inside Arabian Ranches 2, recorded by the Dubai Land Department as AR II Reem Community. Separately, Emaar's Reem community (with Mira and Mira Oasis) sits next to the Arabian Ranches extension. Check the title deed or the listing's community name to know which one you are looking at.

Arabian Ranches 2 is villas and townhouses, with no apartments. Emaar's own material confirms 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses in Camelia and 3 to 5 bedroom villas in Samara. We list homes in the area as they come up. Browse the wider villa market through our family villa communities guide, and compare this community with the original in Dubai Hills Estate vs Arabian Ranches.

Arabian Ranches 2 townhouses

Townhouses suit buyers who want the Ranches address at a lower entry point than a villa. Camelia is the townhouse enclave Emaar launched in October 2018 and described then as the last opportunity to own a home in Arabian Ranches II. Ask whether a townhouse is an end unit or a middle unit, because that changes the garden and the light.

The sold-price table on this page uses Dubai Land Department records: 58 home sales registered from January to late October 2026, as of November 2026. The typical (median) 3 bedroom home sold for AED 3,500,000 at about 1,884 sq ft, and the typical home with 4 or more bedrooms for AED 4,500,000 at about 2,983 sq ft. The typical price across all sales was AED 1,428 per sq ft, and none of the sales were off-plan, because the community is complete.

We had no live listings in Arabian Ranches 2 as of 3 November 2026, so we quote no rent. Ask for recent registered leases for the same enclave and bedroom count, and check the Dubai Land Department's rental index before you agree a renewal. See how much a villa costs in Dubai for the wider picture.

Dubai sets the areas where non-UAE nationals may own freehold through Regulation No. 3 of 2006 and later amendments, which list plots by area and plot number rather than by community name. So confirm the freehold status on the title deed of the specific home, or with the Dubai Land Department, before you pay a deposit. Read buying property in Dubai as a foreigner and the DLD fees guide.

We do not quote service charges because no dated source we could open gives a figure for Arabian Ranches 2. Ask for the latest community charge statement for the specific enclave and compare it with the Dubai Land Department's service charge index. Our service charge guide explains how, and the villa running costs guide covers cooling and garden costs.

There is no metro station near Arabian Ranches 2, so most residents drive. Emaar names RTA bus route F30 for the Arabian Ranches community, and taxis are available. Check the current routes and the stop nearest your enclave on the RTA website.

These are Emaar's approximate times for the original community next door; allow extra time from the central enclaves to reach the gate. Traffic on E311 and Al Qudra Road changes them, so test the drive at the time you would travel. Emaar's Camelia townhouses each have two parking bays.

Emaar's Camelia release lists a school, a mosque, nurseries and a retail centre near the homes. Wikipedia names two schools in the Arabian Ranches community, Jumeirah English Speaking School (JESS) and Ranches Primary School, both following the English National Curriculum. Check ratings, places and fees on the KHDA website.

Emaar names Aster Medical Center inside The Ranches 2 Souk and Mediclinic Arabian Ranches in the wider community. Check services on the DHA website.

The Ranches Souk in Arabian Ranches II spreads over two floors with more than 35 retail, food and leisure outlets, according to Emaar. Emaar says the souk includes a lifestyle club with a swimming pool, a gym and tennis courts. Camelia's release adds community parks, barbecue areas, tennis and basketball courts and a leisure centre within walking distance.

Residents can use facilities of the wider Ranches area. Wikipedia says Arabian Ranches Golf Club has an 18-hole, par 72 course designed by Ian Baker-Finch with Nicklaus Design. The Dubai Polo and Equestrian Club offers polo, show jumping and desert riding. Emaar lists regular community events for Arabian Ranches.

Figures are the medians on each community page, from Dubai Land Department sales registered January to October 2026, as of November 2026.

• The enclave. Styles, plot sizes and bedroom counts differ between enclaves, so decide on the enclave first and then compare homes within it.
• The distance to the main entrance and the souk. Enclaves near the Al Qudra Road access points are quicker to leave at rush hour, while the central enclaves are further in.
• What backs onto the home. A park, a pool, a road or another plot changes the feel of the garden.
• Type and floor plan. Ask for the Emaar floor plan and measure the actual rooms.
• Running costs. Ask for twelve months of cooling and maintenance bills and the latest community charge statement.
• The school run. Test the drive to your chosen school at the times you would travel.

Inside the community, check parking for visitors as well as your own bays, and ask the community management about rules for car washing, gardens and changes to the outside of the home before you plan any work.

Buyers should read our villa buying guide and townhouse buying guide, then budget for the transfer costs in the DLD fees guide. The Dubai Land Department publishes the registration steps. Tenants sign an annual contract and register it through Ejari. If you are comparing new homes by Emaar, our off-plan townhouses and villas guide explains payment plans and handover rights.

• Families. Three bedrooms and up, gardens and shared pools.
• Buyers who want an Emaar address. Compare enclaves by size, style and distance to the entrance.
• Tenants on annual contracts. Read renting a villa in Dubai and Ejari.

It suits people less well if they depend on the metro, want nightlife at the door or need a short commute to Downtown. See family-friendly communities compared for other options.
