Riviera Beach Front

Riviera Beach Front is a completed residential development by Azizi, positioned within the Azizi Riviera masterplan at Meydan One, comprising three buildings and 40 apartments across studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom configurations. Handover was delivered in Q4 2024, and units are on the market now.

# The buildings and their position within Meydan One

Azizi Riviera is one of the larger residential schemes to take shape within Mohammed Bin Rashid City, the masterplanned district that occupies a broad swathe of land between Al Khail Road and Ras Al Khor. Riviera Beach Front occupies the waterfront edge of this community, where the built environment gives way to beachfront promenades and open water. Three low-to-mid-rise buildings define the cluster, their facades characterised by expansive glazing and horizontal lines that draw the eye outward toward the water rather than upward toward the skyline.

At 40 units across three buildings, this is a deliberately contained development. That scale suits buyers who want access to a large masterplan's infrastructure without the density that typically accompanies it.

# Residences: layouts, sizing and finish

The apartment range runs from studios at 396 to 427 square feet through to two-bedroom units reaching just over 1,000 square feet. Studios are priced from AED 1,399,000. One-bedroom apartments occupy two distinct size bands: the standard configuration sits at approximately 643 square feet, priced from AED 2,255,000, while a larger one-bedroom format at 956 square feet carries a price from AED 3,147,000. Two-bedroom apartments start at 1,006 square feet from AED 3,450,000.

All units are delivered semi-furnished. Service charges are set at AED 16 per square foot annually.

The glazed frontages that define the exterior translate into bright interiors, with the primary living areas oriented to maximise the waterfront outlook. Kitchens and bathrooms are fitted with specified appliances and fixtures from the outset, which limits the fit-out work required before occupation.

# Amenities on site

The development's amenity provision is weighted toward the outdoors. Beachfront areas are the centrepiece, supplemented by a swimming pool, jacuzzi, zen garden, yoga studio and a dedicated outdoor play area alongside a children's play zone. A barbecue area extends the social infrastructure toward the water's edge. Inside, a gym and retail outlets cover the functional baseline.

The amenity list reflects the beachfront positioning: most of what is on offer is designed to be used outside.

# Connections and the surrounding district

North London Collegiate School and Hartland International School both sit within 1.7 kilometres of the development, each reachable in around five minutes by car. For families relocating from the UK or planning a move with school-age children, this proximity is material. Nad Al Sheba Park, one of Dubai's more extensive green spaces, is 3.8 kilometres away, a seven-minute drive.

The Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa are roughly 13 kilometres south, a 15 to 16-minute journey along Al Khail Road. Dubai International Airport is 16.7 kilometres from the site, a drive of approximately 29 minutes in normal traffic. Meydan's own retail destination is just 4.4 kilometres away, under five minutes.

Meydan One sits close enough to Downtown Dubai to benefit from its infrastructure, but far enough removed to hold a different residential character: lower density, more green space, a pace that downtown cannot offer.

# Who this development suits and where it sits in the market

At AED 1,399,000 for a completed, semi-furnished studio in a beachfront position within MBR City, Riviera Beach Front occupies a price point that is accessible relative to comparable waterfront product elsewhere in Dubai. The upper end of the range, two-bedroom units at AED 3.45 million and above, remains competitive against equivalent sizing in Downtown or Business Bay, where the beachfront element is absent entirely.

The profile that fits this project is specific. End-users who want an address within a large masterplan but not inside a tower of several hundred units. Investors targeting the short-let market, given the beach amenity and the proximity to both schools and the airport. And international buyers, particularly from the UK and Europe, for whom the nearby school options reduce one significant friction point in a relocation decision.
