Khalej Times: Exclusive look inside the Dh180-million Burj Khalifa penthouse on the 108th floor

I magine stepping out of an elevator on the 108th floor of the world’s tallest and most iconic tower, into a 21,000-square-foot glass-wrapped penthouse that commands 360-degree views of one of the most famed cities for real estate in the world.

Currently up for grabs, this architectural marvel at the summit of the Burj Khalifa can become your private domain — for just Dh180 million.

The Burj Khalifa Sky Palace represents what Karl Haddad, the property’s current owner, describes to KT LUXE as the “number 1 trophy asset in Dubai” — a distinction that, he says, becomes immediately apparent when you consider its unprecedented specifications and unmatched positioning in the world’s most recognisable tower. The numbers alone suggest why.

At 21,000 square feet, this penthouse is three times larger than any other unit in the Burj Khalifa and stands as the largest available penthouse in Downtown Dubai. It is the building’s only duplex unit, the only full-floor residence, and the only property with private elevator access, ensuring that residents step directly from their lift into their private sanctuary without encountering another soul.

The exclusivity extends beyond mere size

This is the only unit in the tower featuring a private indoor pool, offering residents the surreal experience of swimming while suspended hundreds of metres above the city. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls provide unobstructed panoramic views stretching across the Arabian Gulf, the Arabian desert, and Dubai’s ever-evolving skyline — a living canvas that changes with the light and seasons.

The property comes with an estimated fit-out requirement of Dh21 million-Dh26 million, which, Haddad suggests, could elevate the penthouse’s value to between Dh275-300 million upon completion. The annual service fee of Dh1.15 million, he says, ensures that residents enjoy world-class building management and concierge services befitting their elevated position. More info and photos
