Ascendas Developers, a rising force in Dubai’s luxury property renovation market, has unveiled Maison Nami, its latest bespoke residence at Sundials, Jumeirah Golf Estates, valued at AED 46 million. Unlike conventional developers who replicate identical homes, Ascendas takes a meticulous, design-first approach curating fully furnished, one-of-a-kind villas where no two residences are ever alike.

Maison Nami, the developer’s latest creation in Dubai, tells a story where tranquility meets vibrant living. Overlooking the full expanse of the Earth Course, the villa spans close to 10,000 square feet, seamlessly blending natural tones, fluid interiors, and globally sourced finishes. By day, it offers serene landscaped gardens, a temperature-controlled pool, and shaded terraces for quiet reflection. By evening, it comes alive with its exclusive Private Den—a sophisticated retreat designed for entertaining and unwinding. With Italian marble, Spanish tiles, bespoke fittings, and expansive living areas, Maison Nami reflects individuality, craftsmanship, and a lifestyle tailored for discerning global buyers.

“In a city celebrated for its scale and spectacle, our vision was to create something far more personal—spaces defined by individuality,” said Rohit Vig, Co-founder & Partner, Ascendas Developers. “At Ascendas, we don’t just build homes, we curate experiences. Each villa is designed as a distinct expression of lifestyle, shaped around the aspirations of its residents. This philosophy allows us to continually push the boundaries of design to showcase what true luxury living means in a city like Dubai which is famed for its global appeal of vibrancy, elegance, and cosmopolitan flair.”

Ascendas Developers has established its name in the realm of unique villa offerings with residences priced between AED 45 million and AED 150 million. Ascendas caters to ultra-high-net-worth individuals who value exclusivity, craftsmanship, and lifestyle appeal that linger over time. Over the next 12 months, the developer plans to deliver AED 500 million worth of bespoke villas, with eight completions scheduled between October 2025 and March 2026. Maison Kai, the company’s largest upcoming villa in Al Barari will be valued at AED 120 million in Al Barari, set for completion in February 2026.

Ascendas has built its reputation in the global luxury villa market by rejecting mass-produced concepts and instead creating singular residences that embrace global design sensibilities, premium materials, and contextual architecture. Each property is carefully hand-selected in established neighborhoods such as Jumeirah Golf Estates, Al Barari, and Jumeirah Islands, then transformed into a masterpiece tailored to its location and the lifestyle of international and local families in Dubai. Every project benefits from Ascendas’ in-house team of engineers, project managers, and designers. They meticulously scope out each project from inception to completion, collaborating with over 20 ultra specialized and highly focused contractors who are leaders in their respective fields. To name a few, tiles are sourced from Italy and Spain through Casa-Mia, sanitaryware by GESSI and Kohler, bespoke fit-to-size kitchens by Snaidero, and the finest marble from Glaze, UAE’s number one name in natural stone. Together, these partnerships ensure that every home reflects a standard of craftsmanship and luxury that is truly unparalleled.

“Dubai has no shortage of luxury developments, but when luxury becomes mass-produced, it loses its essence,” said Kavin Gupta, Co-founder & Partner, Ascendas Developers. “Our approach is rooted in meticulous planning and project management, ensuring that every detail aligns with our vision of bespoke living. This niche, experience-driven segment is where true value lies—it not only delivers an irreplaceable lifestyle for residents but also represents a highly lucrative opportunity in a market that increasingly rewards individuality and precision.”

With an AED 500 million delivery pipeline planned in the next three quarters, Ascendas Developers is reinforcing its commitment to shaping Dubai’s prime real estate landscape. This latest launch underscores the company’s focus on creating niche, premium communities that stand apart in a market often defined by scale.

By combining global expertise, best-in-class partners, and a precise project management approach, Ascendas continues to deliver not just homes, but curated lifestyles that embody the future of luxury living in Dubai.

Al Huzaifa, a brand synonymous with craftsmanship, precision, and decades of excellence in furniture and interiors, announced its expansion into real estate with the launch of Al Huzaifa Properties last month.  Its first development, Soléva Beach Residences, on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, is now unveiled to the public. Valued at AED450M, the property will be fully furnished and ready for completion by Q4 2027.

Al Huzaifa is rooted in a culture of craft and backed by five decades of consistent delivery. From furniture and interiors to development, the brand upholds a standard defined by skill, material expertise, and premium design. This legacy continues as the World of Huzaifa now expands to shape the beginnings of Al Huzaifa Properties.

“We are proud to bring Al Huzaifa’s legacy of craftsmanship, precision, and refined design into real estate with the launch of Soléva Beach Residences. The process from concept to detailing to the finish has been brought to life under one roof, allowing us full control of our vision and prioritising quality in every stage of execution. This project embodies our commitment to creating residences that combine luxury, comfort, and a deep connection to nature, while fostering a sense of community. Soléva represents a new benchmark for holistic living, where architecture, interiors, and amenities come together to set the standard for premium lifestyle experiences in the UAE,” said Saif Nensey, CEO of Al Huzaifa Furniture and CEO & Founder of Al Huzaifa Properties.

Set against the iconic Al Marjan Island, Soléva Beach Residences will be a signature project that truly represents the iconic brand’s signature style shaped by skill, luxuriant materials and premium design. An architectural form inspired by the natural curves of the island, Soléva will blend material sophistication with functionality to create spaces that flow seamlessly with their surroundings. Soléva Beach Residences will feature 2 basements, a ground floor, and 8 upper floors. The 232 residences and one retail unit comprise 111 studios (380–560 sq. ft.), 101 one-bedroom apartments (800–1,370 sq. ft.), and 20 two-bedroom apartments (1,500–2,500 sq. ft.), all with private pools. The payment plan is 50% during construction and 50% on handover, with prices starting from AED 1.19M.

“Our venture into real estate at Marjan Island is the proud culmination of decades of design excellence. This project is entirely conceived, designed, and delivered in-house, giving us unparalleled control over quality, speed, and customization. It is an offering that will be hard to match—bringing together timeless design, faster delivery, and bespoke detailing. More than just a development, it represents a new dimension to the UAE’s landscape and lifestyle, while ensuring exceptional value and strong ROI for our buyers and investors,” said Zaheer Rattonsey, Managing Partner at Al Huzaifa Properties.

The development is designed to maximize sea, beach, or park views through floor-to-ceiling glass, private balconies, and elegantly crafted interiors. All two-bedroom units include private pools, while each residence reflects Al Huzaifa’s design philosophy of light, calm, and material continuity. The apartments are fully furnished to create premium living environments with bespoke fixtures that are crafted to reflect smart architecture, luxurious materials of world-class quality and custom design. The interiors feature integrated joinery with concealed storage, natural stone and wood accents with warm finishes, custom furniture in neutral palettes enhanced by accent lighting, and premium bathrooms with rainfall showers and stone vanities.

Soléva offers 50 curated resort-style amenities blending wellness, fitness, leisure, and hospitality services. Highlights include a dedicated wellness level with cryo cabins, thermal suites, massage rooms, saunas, steam rooms, jacuzzi, and a tranquil lounge; a state-of-the-art fitness studio with cardio, strength, and multipurpose zones complemented by outdoor yoga decks and a Zen Garden. In addition, it includes a rooftop escape with infinity pools, floating daybeds, cabanas, fire pit lounges, and dining courtyards with panoramic Gulf views.

It also features hospitality-inspired services such as valet, AI-powered concierge, luggage management, coworking lounges, a water sports pavilion, and seamless park and beach access. The ground floor also features a 9,000 sq. ft. F&B destination and a calming lobby with water features and fireplace, seamlessly integrating hospitality, workspace, and leisure.

Soléva is the UAE’s first residential project to integrate an Owner’s SuperApp, providing residents with instant access to services, amenities, and vacation rental management, redefining convenience and elevating community living.

The project is realized in collaboration with leading design firms: architecture by VELA, specialists in climate-conscious, human-centric design; the landscaping will be undertaken by Square M Design, experts in adaptive, hospitality-focused outdoor experiences; lighting by Studio Lumen, global leaders in architectural lighting solutions; and interiors by MWM Studio, an award-winning Dubai boutique renowned for tailored, distinctive design.

Ultimately, the project comes to life in the heart of Ras Al Khaimah’s Marjan Island, which has emerged as one of the UAE’s fastest-growing investment and lifestyle destinations. In 2024, the emirate welcomed 1.28 million visitors, achieving a 12% increase in tourism revenue, with a vision to triple visitor numbers by 2030. Supported by a GDP of USD 14 billion and thriving industries including tourism, real estate, and logistics, Ras Al Khaimah’s natural landmarks, including Jebel Jais and the world’s longest zipline, provide a compelling backdrop for Al Huzaifa Properties as they debut Soléva Beach Residences.

Marjan, the master developer of freehold properties in Ras Al Khaimah, has announced the completion of infrastructure works at RAK Central, its upcoming mixed-use commercial development in the northern emirate. Along with the appointment of leading Middle East Construction Group, ALEC, as the main contractor for RAK Central HQ Office Complex, it marks a major milestone in the development of Ras Al Khaimah’s upcoming business hub, a vibrant ‘Work-Live-Play’ destination in alignment with RAK Vision 2030.

Spanning 3.1 million sq.ft of prime land with 8.37 million sq. ft. of gross floor area, the progressive integrated destination for living and business is now ready for activation by investors and sub-developers. Comprehensive wet and dry services, including stormwater, sewerage, firefighting, irrigation, potable water, electrical networks and street lighting, are fully operational. Additionally, roads, cycle tracks, landscaping and green spaces with hundreds of trees have been completed. With this foundation in place, sub-developers are scheduled to commence commercial, residential, retail and hospitality projects with RAK Central HQ set for completion in Q1 2027.

Commenting on the progress, Arch. Abdulla Al Abdouli, Chief Executive Officer, Marjan, said: “With the completion of infrastructure works and onboarding of global contractors, RAK Central has progressed into a new activation phase. The involvement of leading developers reinforces our vision to create a world-class hub that brings together business, lifestyle and tourism, enhancing Ras Al Khaimah’s reputation as a compelling destination for international investors and families alike.”

RAK Central is a meticulously planned business district designed to be the commercial nucleus of Ras Al Khaimah, offering rare investment fundamentals: 100% foreign ownership, low taxation and high yield potential. RAK Central’s strategic location and smart design make it one of the most compelling investment zones in the region.

Located on Sheikh Mohammed bin Salem Al Qasimi Street, with spectacular views of Al Hamra Golf Club and the Arabian Gulf, RAK Central offers easy access to the E-11 highway, with ongoing expansions enhancing connectivity. Designed as a future-ready, work-live-play district, RAK Central features Grade A offices, residences, hotels, retail and a vibrant Town Square with premium amenities. The LEED Gold certified office buildings offer dual licensing and investor-friendly frameworks and will be managed under a hospitality-driven model to ensure an exceptional quality of life for residents, businesses and visitors.

Since its announcement in January 2024, RAK Central plots have completely sold out. The masterplan offers three million square feet of rentable office space, more than 4,000 residential apartments, four hotels with a capacity surpassing 1,000 keys, multiple parks and green spaces, various retail and entertainment facilities and several interconnected buildings with over 1,000 parking spaces for visitors.

RAK Central is officially open to welcome international investors, corporations and residents to Ras Al Khaimah’s most dynamic and vibrant new address.
