Maravelle Residences

Maravelle Residences is a boutique apartment building by Majid Al Futtaim, located within City of Arabia in Dubailand, comprising 23 residences across a single structure. The project is currently under construction, with two- and three-bedroom apartments making up the available unit mix.

# The building and its position in City of Arabia

City of Arabia is one of Dubai's more ambitious mixed-use districts, planned as a largely self-contained urban environment within Dubailand. The intention from the outset has been to combine residential, retail and recreational uses at a scale that reduces dependence on the wider city grid. Maravelle slots into this context as a low-volume, nature-oriented counterpoint to the district's larger towers.

With only 23 residences, the building sits at the smaller end of what Majid Al Futtaim typically delivers. That scale is the point. The surrounding landscape, characterised by forest paths and open garden areas, shapes the architectural logic of the project rather than serving as decoration.

# Residences, layouts and floor areas

The unit mix runs from two-bedroom apartments to three-bedroom homes, with floor areas that are notably generous by Dubai apartment standards.

Two-bedroom residences range from approximately 2,280 to 2,783 square feet. Three-bedroom homes sit between roughly 2,842 and 2,947 square feet. These are not compact city apartments. At those sizes, each configuration carries enough interior volume to absorb full dining and living separation, dedicated home-working space, and meaningful bedroom proportions.

Residences are delivered unfurnished. The service charge is set at 18 AED per square foot.

# Pricing

Two-bedroom units are priced from AED 5,417,000 to AED 6,034,000 depending on floor area and position. Three-bedroom homes run from AED 6,529,000 to AED 6,947,000. The development is currently listed as out of stock, which signals that available inventory is either reserved or fully taken up.

# Amenities grounded in outdoor living

The amenity offer at Maravelle is deliberately restrained and consistent with the project's orientation toward natural surroundings. Tranquility pools, forest paths and picnic gardens make up the listed facilities.

There is no lengthy amenity catalogue here. What the project offers is spatial, not programmatic: the opportunity to move through landscaped green space without leaving the building's immediate footprint. For buyers fatigued by towers that list forty amenities and deliver a roof terrace and a gym, that simplicity reads as considered rather than sparse.

# City of Arabia's infrastructure and broader access

City of Arabia sits within Dubailand, a district that has developed gradually over the past decade and continues to expand its residential and commercial offer. The Mall of Arabia, planned as one of the region's larger retail destinations, is part of the same masterplan. Monorail connectivity linking City of Arabia to other parts of Dubai has been part of the long-term infrastructure vision for the district.

The area has been designed with pedestrian movement in mind, incorporating canal systems and landscaped corridors alongside its road network.

# Who Maravelle suits, and where it sits in the current market

The profile here is a buyer who prioritises floor area and low-density living over proximity to the Dubai International Financial Centre or the Palm. Families relocating from European cities, where 2,500 square feet at this price point would be unobtainable, will find the value proposition straightforward. The Majid Al Futtaim name carries institutional weight in the UAE, which matters for buyers purchasing off-plan from outside the country.

At 23 units, resale liquidity will always be limited compared to larger schemes, and buyers should factor that into their thinking. The trade-off is a quieter, more defined residential environment in a district that is still maturing, bought at prices that reflect both the opportunity and the incompletion.
