Samana Lake Views Phase 2: Apartments from AED 639,000 in Dubai Production City
Samana Developers launched Phase 2 of Lake Views in Dubai Production City (IMPZ) in mid-2024. The project offers apartments ranging from AED 639,000 to AED 1,470,000, with handover targeted for December 2027. A post-handover payment component gives buyers additional time beyond keys to clear the remaining balance.
What Dubai Production City Means in Practice
Dubai Production City sits in the western arc of Dubai, bordered by Jumeirah Village Circle to the east and Motor City to the south. For residents, the area is largely self-contained. There is no metro access, and daily errands depend on a car. Mall of the Emirates is roughly 15 to 20 minutes by road. The Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road connects the district to both Downtown Dubai and the southern industrial and port zones, making it practical for professionals working across that corridor.
For investors, the tenant pool skews toward professionals employed in the Media City and Internet City clusters to the north, and the Jebel Ali zone to the south. That gives the area a broad employment base rather than dependence on a single sector.
A Wide Price Range: What It Signals
AED 639,000 is the entry point. AED 1,470,000 is the ceiling. The spread of roughly AED 830,000 within a single property category points to significant variation in unit size, likely spanning from studios or one-bedrooms at the lower end to two-bedroom units at the top.
At AED 639,000, this is a yield-focused buy in a production-zone location. At AED 1.47 million for a two-bedroom equivalent in this district, buyers have comparable options elsewhere in Dubai, so the payment structure and timeline carry more weight in the decision.
Six Amenities, One Uncommon One
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Recreation | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor and Community | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Retail and Dining | Cafe and Restaurants, Retail Facilities |
The indoor swimming pool is the standout. Most Dubai residential projects offer outdoor pools, which are effectively unusable from June through September. An indoor pool removes that constraint and suits year-round residents rather than seasonal or short-stay tenants. The combination of on-site dining and retail suggests the developer is targeting residents who want to minimise how often they need to leave the community for daily needs. The amenity mix as a whole points at families and long-term renters rather than the transient short-let market.
Handover Set for December 2027
Construction started in June 2024. The expected completion date is December 2027, a three-and-a-half-year build cycle. Buyers entering now have roughly 17 months remaining before handover. The project has been under construction for over two years, meaning the earliest phases of groundwork are already done.
Off-plan buyers at this stage are buying into a project with tangible construction progress, not a launch-phase rendering.
The Payment Structure: 20% Down, 26% After Keys
| Stage | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 53% |
| Handover | 1% |
| Post handover | 26% |
The 20% down payment is in line with standard Dubai off-plan terms. The more notable element is the 26% deferred to post handover. Buyers pay 74% of the purchase price before receiving keys, with the remaining quarter spread across a post-handover schedule. For investors planning to rent the unit, that deferred balance runs concurrently with the period when rental income begins, which can ease the cash flow transition from buyer to landlord.
