La Quinta at Villanova, introduces large villas to Dubai, fulfilling the market need for large family-style homes

Dubai Properties (DP), a leading Dubai-based real estate master developer and asset manager has announced the launch of “La Quinta”, the second phase of the elegant and vibrant Villanova residential master community in DUBAILAND. The announcement comes after the successful launch of Amaranta, the first phase of Villanova, in 2016. Units are now on sale at the DP sales and customer services centre in Ras Al Khor.

The premium three, four, five and five plus- bedroom independent La Quinta villas at Villanova range in size from 2,204 sq. ft. to 3,863 sq. ft. offering families in Dubai the choice of larger villas, a growing segment in the market. La Quinta is part of Villanova in DUBAILAND which is the first-of-its-kind private gated neighborhood specifically designed to cater to holistic family living, with its elegant and spaciously designed ‘Cluster Homes’ and standalone villas, all of which will include full amenities. 

Villa’s in La Quinta will have two to three shaded car parks as well as an additional outdoor area, perfect for socialising and family time. Inspired by Mediterranean and Portuguese architecture, the villas are set amidst lush gardens complete with walking and biking trails, intersecting pedestrian-only linear parks and fountains. The villas are adjacent to Al Habtoor Polo and Equestrian Club.  

DP identified a crucial gap and market need for villas through the immense response received for the Mudon community and is now presenting a premium offering that responds to buyers’ requirements. Masood Al Awar, Chief Commercial Officer at Dubai Properties, said: “La Quinta is a residential neighbourhood that is specifically designed to accommodate larger families who require in excess of three bedrooms. We have seen a strong demand for this category of family homes following the successful handover completion of Phase 2 of our master-planned community Mudon at Dubailand; the demand is also reflected in the high resale transactions in the secondary market,” he added, ”This new launch will invariably enhance the market dynamics in the family accommodation segment and we anticipate a strong uptake for all the units launched for sale.”

With reports such as Global Lifestyle Review by Knight Frank recognising Dubai among the top five cities for relocating families, an introduction of new units into this product category will address the city’s increasing popularity with families settling here. Also, an anticipated population growth of 5 to 6 per cent in Dubai over the next two years, expected to reach about 3 million by the time it hosts the World Expo in 2020, will further fuel the interest and need for large, spacious villas with premium finishes along with world-class community amenities and facilities. The project echoes DP’s aim to continuously shape their product offering to suit market needs and reaffirms their position as master developer of choice by providing an appealing lifestyle proposition.

The large Villanova master plan comprises of smaller neighbourhoods of 150-250 units and multiple recreational facilities, each one including a pool house, children’s play areas, BBQ zones, picnic lawns and basketball court, as well as other community-wide facilities like mosques, retail outlets with outdoor seating and more.   

Villanova is located in DUBAILAND near the intersection of Emirates Road and Al Ain Road, in close proximity to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road. These major highways offer easy access to both Dubai International and Al Maktoum International airports, as well as the Expo 2020 site and positioning DUBAILAND as one of the most desirable master-planned residential and leisure destinations in Dubai.
