The Villa is a residential community located in Dubailand, developed by Dubai Properties in alliance with Mazaya. The project was launched in 2005 and took five years to complete, reaching full maturity in 2010. Spanning 35 million square feet, it offers a collection of 4, 5, and 6-bedroom villas designed with Spanish-style architecture. These properties feature sun-soaked courtyards, thoughtfully curated color palettes, and themed landscaping, creating a serene and secluded setting that reflects Mediterranean living.
The community is divided into distinct sub-communities, including The Aldea, The Centro, Hacienda, and The Ponderosa, each characterized by its own architectural theme. Villas in The Villa range from 3,600 to 7,100 square feet in plot size and are surrounded by natural greenery with pathways leading to the community center. Dubai Properties offers five different floor plans, predominantly featuring 4-bedroom units, with some 5 and 6-bedroom options available, while Mazaya Villas provides eight floor plan variations, typically with 5 bedrooms. Residents can also opt for custom villas, purchasing plots to design and build homes tailored to their needs.
The Villa stands out for its strategic location, providing easy access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), Emirates Road (E611), and Al Ain Road (E22). This connectivity ensures residents can reach Dubai’s commercial hubs and leisure destinations with ease, despite the community’s suburban feel. The development caters to families with amenities like landscaped gardens, children’s play areas, a park, a nursery, tennis courts, a mosque, and a fully equipped community center, making it a practical and comfortable place to live.
One of the unique selling points of The Villa is its freehold status, allowing both locals and expatriates to own property. The combination of spacious villas, thoughtful design, and a family-oriented environment makes it a sought-after residential option in Dubailand. Whether it’s the lush surroundings or the ability to customize a dream home, The Villa offers a distinctive living experience rooted in quality and convenience.
