Why Al Marjan Island is the smartest Dubai investment for Turkish buyers in 2025. OYSTRA by Richmind offers beachfront luxury, Zaha Hadid architecture, 2-minute proximity to the $3.9B Wynn Casino, and a dollar-pegged hedge against TRY volatility. From $762K with 10% down.
— Benefits
Exclusive Master Agency discounts, from studio to penthouse. The rarer the unit, the greater the benefit — up to 4%.
The UAE Dirham is pegged to the US Dollar — the world's reserve currency. Turkish investors buying OYSTRA lock in a hard-currency asset that protects against Lira depreciation. Your real estate holds value in USD terms while Turkish inflation erodes TRY-based assets.
Wynn Al Marjan Island is a $3.9 billion integrated resort with the world's largest premium casino, opening 2027. When Wynn opened in Las Vegas (2005) and Macau (2006), surrounding property values surged +300% in 5 years. OYSTRA is 2 minutes away — the closest residential tower to the Wynn.
Istanbul to Ras Al Khaimah: ~4.5 hours direct flight. Turkish Airlines flies Istanbul-Dubai 3× daily. No visa required for Turkish citizens on arrival (30-day free visa). Al Marjan Island is 55 minutes from Dubai International Airport — closer than many Antalya resorts are to Istanbul.
Turkey imposes high taxes on rental income (15-35% income tax) and capital gains. The UAE has 0% income tax, 0% capital gains tax, 0% annual property tax. Your OYSTRA rental income is 100% tax-free. Your capital appreciation is 100% yours. This is the ultimate tax-optimization strategy for Turkish investors.
OYSTRA is the first 100% residential project by Zaha Hadid Architects in the UAE. Zaha Hadid, born in Baghdad, is the Arab world's most celebrated architect. Her designs command premium valuations worldwide. This is not just real estate — it's a collectible asset by a regional icon, near your home market.
Al Marjan Island is a government master plan — 4 man-made islands, 7.8 km of beaches, integrated into RAK Vision 2030. Not a speculative development like many Turkish off-plan projects. Infrastructure, roads, utilities, and resorts are already operational or under construction. RERA-regulated escrow protects your funds.

— What You Get
Turkish inflation hit 64% in 2024. The Lira lost 40%+ of its value against the USD. A Dubai property priced in AED (pegged to USD) is the simplest, most effective hedge. Your investment grows in hard currency while protecting your wealth from domestic currency depreciation.
Palmera Signature is the official Master Agency for OYSTRA. Turkish investors get: priority unit selection (best views, best floors), negotiated payment plans, and direct-from-developer pricing. No middleman markups. Best price guaranteed. Our Turkish-speaking team handles every step.
Your $762K+ investment qualifies for a 10-year UAE Golden Visa. Includes spouse and children under 18. A second residency that gives your family a base in one of the world's safest, most tax-friendly countries — just 4.5 hours from Istanbul. Does not affect your Turkish citizenship.
Projected 8-12% net rental yield (tax-free). Short-term rentals during peak season (October-April) command premium rates due to the Wynn Casino, beachfront location, and limited supply (192 units). Compare to Istanbul rental yields of 3-5% heavily taxed. Our team handles tenant sourcing and management.
Only 192 residences in an iconic Zaha Hadid tower. Compare to the thousands of units in typical Istanbul developments. This built-in scarcity supports long-term value. When the Wynn opens in 2027 and demand surges, 192 units won't be enough — early investors capture the upside.
From wire transfer logistics to Turkish tax optimization guidance to post-handover rental management — our Turkish-focused team handles everything. We connect you with CPAs experienced in Turkey-UAE tax treaties, handle tenant management, and provide quarterly financial reports in Turkish or English.
— FAQ
Dubai offers 0% tax (vs Turkey's 15-35% rental income tax), a USD-pegged currency (vs TRY depreciation), higher rental yields (8-12% vs 3-5% in Istanbul), and stronger legal protections via RERA-regulated escrow. For the same capital, Turkish investors get a more secure, higher-yielding, tax-optimized investment.
The UAE Dirham is pegged to the US Dollar at AED 3.67 = USD 1. When you buy an OYSTRA residence at $762K, your investment is effectively in USD terms. As the Turkish Lira depreciates against the Dollar, your Dubai property holds and grows its value in hard currency — protecting your wealth from Turkish inflation.
Turkish citizens receive a free 30-day visa on arrival in the UAE. No pre-application needed. Istanbul to Dubai is a 4.5-hour direct flight with Turkish Airlines (3× daily) and other carriers. You can visit your property, inspect construction progress, and attend meetings with minimal travel friction.
OYSTRA residences start at AED 2.8M ($762K). Payment plan: 10% down payment ($76,200), 40% during construction (2025-2029), 50% at handover (Q2 2029). Wire transfer from your Turkish bank to the RERA-regulated escrow account. No Turkish or UAE mortgage needed — cash or equity release.
Yes. The UAE Golden Visa threshold is AED 2M ($545K). OYSTRA residences start at AED 2.8M ($762K) — well above the threshold. You get a 10-year visa that includes your spouse and children under 18. The visa does not affect your Turkish citizenship — it is a residency permit, not a second passport.
Projected 8-12% net rental yield (tax-free in Dubai).
