Is there any capital gains tax when I sell my Dubai property as an individual?

No. The UAE levies no capital gains tax on property for individuals, so a natural person selling a personally-held home or investment keeps the full gain tax-free, provided it isn't a licensed trading business. Two caveats: your home country may still tax the gain based on your residency, and frequent flipping can reclassify you as a taxable business. Not tax advice.
