Inside the ultra chic Dh70 million Palm Jumeirah mansion with Bentley finishes and Shah Rukh Khan as neighbour

Dubai: What do you get when you mix Bentley furniture, ocean views, and the slight possibility of bumping into Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan during your morning jog?

Welcome to the magnificent sea-facing villa number 23 at Dubai's posh Palm Jumeirah — where opulence meets spectacular views.

Set on a sprawling 14,671 sq ft plot with 8,000 sq ft of built-up luxury, this five-bedroom haven isn’t just a mansion — it’s an experience.

Think triple formal lounges, branded furniture, and views that makes you forget your morning Monday blues. We are also looking at yachts dotting the sea views.

“Welcome to our home,” says Rakesh Mirchandani, our charming host. “We’ve used natural travertine stone throughout to give the classily chic mansion a warm, timeless character.” And it works — every inch of this sprawling home says understated luxury.

The interiors are dressed to impress.

“We’ve furnished the villa with pieces from Bentley, Fendi and other premium brands,” Rakesh adds. “But more than just looking good, it had to feel like home.”

As we move through the light-filled double-height family area, Rakesh calls it “the oasis of calm.”

And he’s not wrong. With natural light pouring in and an open, breathable layout, it’s easy to imagine unwinding here after a long day — or entertaining guests who love to have a good time.

“We’ve got three formal living rooms and two informal ones — one upstairs and one just around the corner — so there’s a space for every mood,” he says.

Practicality meets luxury with a ground-floor bedroom perfect for elderly parents or visiting VIPs.

And the master suite? A showstopper.

“You wake up to this view, step out onto your private terrace, and sip your first cup of tea while looking out at the ocean,” Rakesh says. “It’s the best way to start the day.” We believe him.

Closet envy is also guaranteed. “We created a dedicated space for designer bags and clothes — you’ll never run out of room,” he smiles.

And if you're wondering who your neighbours might be? “You might spot Bollywood stars, tech entrepreneurs or footballers while out for a morning jog,” he says. “That’s just life at The Palm Jumeirah".

Priced at Dh70 million, fully upgraded and fully furnished — yes, the Bentley couch stays — villa 23 even comes with a subtle flex for sports fans: “It’s number 23 — perfect for any Michael Jordan enthusiast,” Rakesh grins.

Dream home? Definitely. Bragging rights included.
