IVY Gardens Phase 2: Samana Apartments in Dubai Land from AED 659,000
Samana Developers is building IVY Gardens Phase 2 in Dubai Land Residence Complex, a large master community in eastern Dubai. The project offers studio to two-bedroom apartments priced from AED 659,000 to AED 1,400,000. Construction started in December 2025 and handover is targeted for the end of 2027.
Dubai Land: Location, Distance, and What It Means in Practice
Dubai Land Residence Complex sits in eastern Dubai, positioned along the Al Ain Road corridor. It is one of the city's larger suburban master communities, covering a wide land area east of Dubai's more established residential and commercial zones.
Downtown Dubai and Business Bay are roughly 25 to 30 minutes by car. Dubai International Airport is a similar distance to the east. Residents working in Silicon Oasis, Academic City, or the wider Dubailand cluster will find the commute short and direct. For those with offices in the Marina or JBR, the drive typically runs 35 to 40 minutes under normal traffic.
The core trade-off is simple: distance from the coast is offset by lower prices and more floor area per dirham. For investors, the lower entry point is the primary draw. For owner-occupiers, it is the usable space per dirham spent.
From AED 659,000 to AED 1.4 Million: Three Tiers, One Building
The project covers three size categories:
- Studios: from AED 659,000, at 419 to 442 square feet
- One-bedrooms: from AED 989,000, at 683 to 742 square feet
- Two-bedrooms: from AED 1,400,000, at 1,171 to 1,248 square feet
Each step up costs more and delivers substantially more space. Moving from a studio to a one-bedroom adds roughly 260 square feet for an extra AED 330,000. Moving from a one-bedroom to a two-bedroom adds approximately 490 square feet for a further AED 411,000, pushing the unit past 1,100 square feet.
For investors, the studio at AED 659,000 is the lowest entry point in the project. For buyers who need a separate bedroom, the one-bedroom at AED 989,000 is the most practical option without crossing into the two-bedroom budget. Two-bedrooms at AED 1.4 million offer over 1,100 square feet, a workable size for small families or couples who want separate living and sleeping areas.

| Fitness | Gymnasium, Indoor Swimming Pool |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Security | CCTV Security |
The indoor swimming pool is the standout feature here. A covered pool remains usable through Dubai's summer months, unlike outdoor alternatives. The on-site restaurant reduces dependency on driving for everyday meals, which is a practical benefit in a large suburban community. The children's play area and landscaped gardens point toward families and longer-term residents as the primary occupant base, rather than short-stay renters.
Handover Expected December 2027
Construction began in December 2025. The expected completion date is December 31, 2027. Buyers entering in mid-2026 are roughly 18 months from handover.
Work is underway on site. This is not a pre-launch or pre-construction position; the project is actively building toward delivery.
Payment Structure: 20% Down, 23% at Keys
| Milestone | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 57% |
| Handover | 23% |
The 20% down payment is the standard threshold for Dubai off-plan transactions. The 57% construction portion is paid in staged instalments across the build period. The final 23% falls due at handover as a lump sum, with no post-handover extension on the payment schedule.
At the studio entry price of AED 659,000, the handover balance comes to approximately AED 151,570. At the two-bedroom price of AED 1,400,000, the same 23% reaches AED 322,000. Both are payable at the December 2027 completion date.
