VOI Residence

VOI Residence is a seven-storey residential building by HVM Living, situated in the Residential District of Dubai South and scheduled for completion in March 2027. The development contains 33 apartments across one- and two-bedroom configurations, currently under construction with units available for purchase.

# The building and its place in Dubai South

Dubai South's Residential District sits in the southern reaches of the emirate, a planned urban quarter built around proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport rather than the older coastal corridors of the city. The area has matured steadily since the Expo 2020 site drew international attention to this part of Dubai, and residential supply here remains comparatively limited against the scale of the district's longer-term masterplan.

VOI Residence occupies a modest footprint within that context. At seven storeys and 33 units, it is a boutique building by any measure. That scale carries consequences for daily life: fewer residents, quieter shared spaces, and a building that functions more like a managed block than a large residential complex.

The architectural approach follows the clean-lined, window-forward aesthetic that has become common across mid-rise Dubai residential projects of this generation.

# Residences, layouts and floor areas

The project offers one- and two-bedroom apartments only. No studios are available despite references to them in some promotional materials.

One-bedroom units range from approximately 698 sq ft to 817 sq ft, priced from AED 821,078 to around AED 1,178,000. The spread in size within the one-bedroom category is relatively tight, suggesting minor variations in orientation or floor level rather than meaningfully different floor plans.

Two-bedroom apartments cover more ground, both literally and in price. Sizes run from roughly 794 sq ft to 1,174 sq ft, with pricing from approximately AED 933,000 to AED 1,379,849. The larger two-bedroom configurations at the upper end of that range offer around 1,170 sq ft, which is a reasonable allocation for a two-bedroom home in this part of Dubai. Balconies are included across the apartment mix. The building is delivered unfurnished. Service charges are set at AED 15 per sq ft per year.

# Shared amenities and communal space

The amenity provision is straightforward. VOI Residence includes a swimming pool, gym, terrace garden, and a children's play area. There is no spa, no co-working space, and no retail component within the building. For a 33-unit project, this level of provision is proportionate and manageable to maintain.

The terrace garden is the most distinctive element of the communal offer, providing an outdoor space that goes beyond a standard pool deck.

# Getting around: airports, schools and daily errands

Al Maktoum International Airport is approximately 12.9 km from the development, a proximity that matters both practically and in terms of the area's long-term trajectory. The airport's ongoing expansion underpins much of Dubai South's growth thesis.

Damac Hills Park lies around 13.6 km away, offering green recreational space within a reasonable drive. For retail, The Ribbon Mall is approximately 18.2 km distant. Victory Heights Primary School is 18.7 km out, which is a meaningful consideration for families with school-age children, though the Residential District does have its own educational infrastructure continuing to develop.

Marina Beach, for those who measure Dubai life partly by coastline access, is 37.5 km away. Dubai South is an inland district and positions itself accordingly.

# Who buys here and why the numbers make sense

At an entry price of AED 821,078 for a one-bedroom apartment in the high 600 sq ft range, VOI Residence sits at an accessible point for international buyers who want Dubai exposure without committing to the higher capital requirements of established areas like Downtown or Dubai Marina. For a GCC-based buyer seeking a second property, or a European investor looking at yields relative to entry costs, the pricing arithmetic in Dubai South has attracted growing attention as the city's more central districts compress in yield terms.

The 33-unit count limits liquidity risk to some degree, though a building of this size also means that a cluster of simultaneous resales could affect pricing. Completion in March 2027 gives buyers a 24-month window on a payment plan. HVM Living is a newer developer in the Dubai market, and buyers conducting due diligence should review the escrow registration (number 19329089) and construction progress directly with the relevant authorities. The building currently stands at zero percent construction completion, as expected at this stage.

Dubai South suits a specific buyer profile: someone oriented toward airport connectivity, comfortable with a suburban residential environment, and focused on value per square foot over address prestige.
