Milan Heights
A cluster of linked towers inside Azizi Milan in Dubailand, launched in July 2025, with studios to three-bedroom flats from AED 575,000 and completion listed for June 2028.
What works
- Studio entry price of AED 575,000 on Property Finder.
- Extensive pools, gyms and retail planned within the enclave.
- On Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, with a planned Blue Line metro station nearby according to Azizi.
What to weigh
- Other buildings in Azizi Milan are selling at similar prices and will compete for tenants.
- Service charges for the large amenity package are not published.
- Prices for one- to three-bedroom flats are not published.
Laguna Residence
Two towers by One Development in City of Arabia, Dubailand, set around a crystal lagoon on the podium. Studios to three-bedroom duplexes from AED 700,000, with handover due in Q4 2027.
What works
- Prices from AED 700,000 for a new apartment about 17 minutes from Downtown Dubai, according to the developer.
- A podium lagoon and more than 40 shared facilities, a level of amenity rare at this price in Dubailand.
- Half the price is due on handover, so less of your money is tied up during construction.
What to weigh
- One Development has not yet completed a UAE project, so there is no delivery record to judge.
- Availability is unclear. Property Finder does not list the project and one portal calls it sold out, while the developer still markets it.
- The 50% handover payment falls due in about a year. Arrange the mortgage or funds early.
