Nakheel Properties is one of the leading property developers in Dubai. The company was founded in 2003 as a subsidiary of the state-owned conglomerate Dubai World. In 2011, following a debt restructuring, it came under the direct management of the Dubai government.

In March 2024, Nakheel and Meydan were merged under the umbrella of Dubai Holding. This merger was a significant development in Dubai's property market.
