Holiday home management in Port de La Mer
Port de La Mer is a low-rise seafront community on the La Mer peninsula in Jumeirah, built around a private marina. If you own an apartment here, fäm Living can turn it into a licensed holiday home and run it for you, by the night and by the month.
fäm Living is the holiday homes company of fäm Properties, licensed by Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism.
Why Port de La Mer works as a holiday home
Guests come for the sea without the towers. The buildings are a handful of floors high, the streets are made for walking and the La Mer beachfront is next door, which suits couples and families who want a calm base by the water.
It is also central. Downtown, City Walk and the older Jumeirah neighbourhoods are a short drive away, closer than from the Marina or the Palm, so the same apartment works for holiday guests and for people in the city for work.
What we do for a Port de La Mer owner
We register the unit for its holiday home permit, help furnish it, carry out a full inventory, photograph the apartment and its view properly, and list it on our own site and the major platforms.
Then we run it: pricing that moves with the season, events and length of stay, guest screening and ID checks, in-person check-in by our team, cleaning and linen between every stay, and maintenance handled before it reaches you. We run each unit by the night when short stays pay best and by the month when long-stay demand is stronger.
You see bookings, statements and payouts in the owner portal, and you can block your own dates whenever you want to use the apartment.
Is your apartment a good fit?
Apartments with a sea or marina view and good outdoor space tend to do best. Unfurnished is fine, since furnishing is part of what we do.
Some buildings have their own rules on short stays or need a no-objection certificate from the developer or owners' association. We check that for your building first.
What your unit could earn depends on the building, the view, the layout and the season, so we quote from what comparable homes actually earned rather than from a rule of thumb.

Straight answers
Owners in Port de La Mer ask
- Is Port de La Mer a good area for Airbnb?
- For many apartments, yes. It is a quiet, walkable seafront community beside the La Mer beach and close to Downtown and City Walk, which suits couples and families who want the sea without the tower districts.
- Are short term rentals allowed in Port de La Mer?
- Yes, as licensed holiday homes. Each unit needs a holiday home permit from Dubai's Department of Economy and Tourism, and the building has to accept short stays. Rules can differ by building and change over time, so we confirm yours in writing before anything is listed.
- Can I still use the apartment myself?
- Yes. You can block your own dates in the owner portal whenever you want to stay, or keep it free for family and friends.
- What does holiday home management cost in Port de La Mer?
- Our terms are agreed per property rather than published, because what is fair depends on the unit, the building and what you want us to handle. We set them out in writing after the consultation, before you sign anything.
