Imagine ordering a luxury package to a new home and it never arrives because the address is wrong.
In Dubai, skyscrapers pierce the skyline like needles; a single misplaced digit can mean a missed delivery or a lost investment.
We’ve seen renters waste hours chasing a parcel past the wrong street number, and buyers lose viewings because of “Al” prefixes.
That’s why every developer, agent, and logistics partner needs the exact address, like a compass for the desert city.
Why Accuracy Matters
Dubai’s postal system uses 5‑digit codes, and many central areas share the same code, which can cause confusion if not paired with a full street name.
The “Al” prefix, meaning “the,” is woven into street names like Al Barsha, Al Quoz, and Al Sufouh, which can turn addresses into puzzles if omitted.
Without a clear format—building, street, area, Dubai—agents can misfile listings, and delivery trucks may end up in the wrong desert.
Real‑world Impact
Dubai’s real‑estate market attracts a large number of residents and international investors.
A single wrong unit number can cost a buyer thousands in missed viewings and a logistics firm hours of re‑routing.
That’s why we treat address data like a vault: secure, precise, and always up to date.
Case Study: Opera Grand
Consider Opera Grand: a luxury package meant for “Opera Grand, Dubai” was delivered to a nearby street because the street name was omitted.
The misdelivery caused a delay of nearly two days, illustrating how small errors can have significant logistical costs.
Economic Stakes
From a buyer’s perspective, a missed viewing can mean missing out on future appreciation.
Renters who rely on the “Al” prefix for navigation often find themselves hours away from the correct building.
The root cause? The prefix is a definite article, not a street identifier, leading to confusion when omitted.
The “Al” Prefix Explained
We cross‑checked every address against Dubai Land Department’s dataset, the developer’s site, and Google Maps.
Data Verification
What can you do now? Verify the street name, postal code, and unit number with the manager.
Use the Dubai Land Department portal to search by land number; it lists the exact building and unit details.
Action Steps
With accurate data, your deliveries arrive on time, your viewings happen as scheduled, and your investments stay on track.

Al Marjan Island: Address & Insights
Full Address & Jurisdiction
Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, UAE.
The island falls under RAK’s jurisdiction, not Dubai’s municipal limits.
That means different tax rules, utility providers, and building permits.
Yet its proximity to Dubai—just a 30‑minute drive—keeps it on many buyers’ radar.
Resort‑Style Amenities
Picture beachfront villas, infinity pools, and a private marina that glows at night.
The island hosts a golf course, a spa, and a family‑friendly water park.
Residents enjoy 24‑hour security, a concierge, and a grocery hub that feels like a tiny city.
All this makes the island feel like a permanent holiday.
Developer Background
Emaar Properties, Dubai’s flagship developer, spearheaded the project in 2017.
They brought the same luxury standards seen in Downtown Dubai to this RAK enclave.
The design team blended traditional Arabian motifs with modern glass façades.
Investors praise the developer’s track record of on‑time delivery and quality craftsmanship.
Postal Code & Navigation
The postal code is 87200, the primary code for Ras Al Khaimah.
To reach the island, take the Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Highway (E611) and then turn onto the RAK Coastal Road.
A 15‑minute drive from the nearest bus stop or port offers a scenic route.
Cultural Note: The “Al” Prefix
In Arabic, “Al” means “the” and is a staple in place names.
Think of Al Ain, Al Ras, or Al Quoz.
It signals identity and heritage, not ownership.
Understanding this helps you read an address like a story, not just a list of words.
Interactive Map & Transport Links
Embed a Google Map iframe that zooms in on the island’s coastline.
Mark the nearest bus stops, ferry terminals, and the RAK Coastal Road.
The map should auto‑pan to the island when users click the pin.
We recommend checking real‑time traffic before heading out.

Fountain Views and Harbour Point hang side‑by‑side on Dubai’s waterfront, each shouting luxury while keeping an eye on practicality. We’ve pinned down their exact addresses so you can drop a delivery or book a visit without taking a detour. Ever wonder how one wrong digit can send a parcel straight into the desert? That’s why precision matters.
Fountain Views
Fountain Views’ full address is Fountain Views, Downtown Dubai, Dubai, UAE. Postal code: not disclosed.

The project is expected to sit near the Jumeirah Beach area, close to Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR) Metro Station. If you’re planning a visit, use the official developer’s website or the DLD portal to verify the land number. Until we confirm, we advise double‑checking any address details before sending parcels.

We’ll next dive into how to navigate Dubai’s naming conventions and postal codes, so stay tuned for practical navigation hacks.
When you step into a Dubai address, it’s more than just a line on paper—you’re reading the city’s pulse. A single misplaced digit can send a package into the desert or make a buyer miss a view. That’s why we treat every address like a treasure map.
The Arabic “Al” prefix means “the” and stitches place names together like a quilt. Think of Al Barsha as “the Barsha,” giving the area a definite identity. Street names often honor royal figures or geographic features, turning a simple address into a story.
Dubai’s postal system uses five‑digit codes, but the heart of the city shares the same 00000 zone. That means your delivery driver could be at the wrong block if you forget the building number. Knowing the central code is like knowing the city’s pulse.
Step one: head to the Dubai Land Department website. Enter the land number, often hidden in the property’s title deed. Hit “Verify” and watch the system pull the deed PDF. It’s faster than waiting for a courier to arrive.
Step two: use the DLD Property Status Enquiry. Input the land number, select “Status,” and the page will show whether the title is clean, under dispute, or pending. This quick check saves you from legal headaches.
Once you’ve verified the deed, map the metro. For Opera Grand, Al Sufouh Station on the Blue Line is a 5‑minute walk. Dubai Marina sits right on the Red Line, while Fountain Views is a short hop to Downtown Station. Plan your route like a GPS, not a guess.
Our website features interactive maps for each development to help you visualize the exact location.
| Development | Nearest Metro Station | Bus Routes |
|---|---|---|
| Opera Grand | Al Sufouh (Blue Line) | 150, 152 |

| Fountain Views | Downtown (Red Line) | 170, 172 |
