Rising above the sparkling waters of the Dubai Canal in Business Bay, this three-bed apartment is part of the Dorchester Collection's upcoming VELA. Totalling 6302 sq. ft., the furnished residence will enjoy views of the glittering Dubai skyline— including the Burj Khalifa — when complete.

VELA itself has been designed by Foster + Partners to combine indoor sophistication and outdoor splendour. Residents can unwind in an expansive balcony with a crystal blue corner pool and multiple seating and dining spaces — all are surrounded by the captivating water and skyline views.

This relaxed luxury flows into the interiors via floor-to-ceiling windows. These sophisticated living spaces have been designed by Parisian duo Gilles & Boissier to feature an elegant contemporary design. Supremely spacious areas feature soaring ceilings in certain places, chic wooden flooring, soft colours and more — vast and stylish luxury. A kitchen with built-in appliances supports.

The three bedrooms are similarly refined, retaining privacy while opening out to the enchanting views. Five bathrooms accompany.

Residents will also be able to enjoy world-class tower amenities:

• Triple-height gym
• Spa, sauna and steam room
• Pool
• Marina berth and boardwalk
• Cinema
• Children's play area
