Tour Destination – Jumeirah Golf Estates

With two superb Greg Norman-designed golf courses, Jumeirah Golf Estates, a European Tour Destination, continues to excel as the host for the season-finale for the European Tour’s Race to Dubai.

Set across 1,119 hectares of lush green landscape just a short drive from the bustling metropolis of downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Golf Estates (JGE) is an unrivalled destination offering attractive investment opportunities and world-class amenities. With over 700 of the total planned 1,835 properties already occupied, JGE currently comprises of 16 unique communities, which overlook two of the world’s finest golf courses – Earth and Fire. The two Championship courses are designed by two-time Open Champion and renowned golf architect Greg Norman, and the Earth course has been the permanent home of the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai since its inception in 2009.

This year, which marked the tenth anniversary of the event, Danny Willett took the spoils ahead of a world-class field which included fellow Major winners Patrick Reed, Henrik Stenson, Rory McIlroy and Francesco Molinari. In addition to boasting the two stunning golf courses, the property also features the first European Tour Performance Institute in the region, which offers world-leading practice and training facilities.

Alandalus and Redwood Park

Designed to offer a state-of-the-art outdoor living that combines luxury, Andalusian-inspired living with affordable prices, Alandalus features 715 apartments, 95 townhouses, a mosque, a hotel, and a community retail centre, making it a complete, integrated community. Overlooking the spectacular fairways of the Fire course and inspired by the Tuscan countryside, Redwood Park is a unique, ready to move in, collection of spacious three and four bedroom townhouses, set among beautiful landscaped gardens and located within walking distance of the Jumeirah Golf Estates Clubhouse and its extensive amenities. Each individually designed villa, apartment and townhouse is more than a residence; it is an ideal home in its own right.

Yousuf Kazim, CEO of Jumeirah Golf Estates said: “The DP World Tour Championship is our flagship event and the season finale of the European Tour. It’s a perfect opportunity for us to celebrate our position as the region’s leading golf and residential community by showcasing Jumeirah Golf Estates to local and international investors and residents. The tournament allows us to create an annual experience that brings the wider community in the UAE together. And as its popularity continues to grow each year, so too does JGE’s reputation as the premier residential golf destination in the region.”
