SAMANA Developers, one of Dubai’s leading real estate firms, has teamed up with the global luxury lifestyle brand ELIE SAAB to reveal the SAMANA Ocean Views interiors project. This significant partnership not only marks ELIE SAAB’s first branded real estate venture in the Maldives but also represents SAMANA Developers’ debut in branded collaborations.
A Perfect Fusion of Elegance and Nature
Unveiled at Dubai’s renowned Madinat Arena, the SAMANA Ocean Views project sets a new standard for luxury living in one of the most sought-after destinations worldwide. Situated just 20 minutes by speedboat from Hanimaadhoo Airport or a 45-minute seaplane journey from Malé, the development spans an impressive 507,651 square feet. Within this space, 190 luxury residences take shape, including beachfront villas, over-water bungalows, and poolside apartments.
Moreover, each residence, thoughtfully designed by ELIE SAAB, captures the natural beauty of the Maldives. By using neutral tones, premium materials, and refined finishes, the interiors reflect a balance of timeless elegance and modern sophistication. As a result, these homes blend effortlessly with the surrounding environment.
Speaking about the collaboration, Elie Saab Jr., CEO of ELIE SAAB Group, shared the brand’s vision:
“This development reflects our vision of crafting immersive, one-of-a-kind lifestyle experiences that embody our philosophy of elegance and sophistication. The Maldives represents a key addition to our growing global portfolio.”
Beyond the luxurious residences, the SAMANA Ocean Views project offers an unparalleled lifestyle, combining world-class amenities with the beauty of the Maldives. Future residents will have access to a wide range of resort-style facilities, including a cutting-edge spa and wellness centre, gourmet dining options that feature Arabic and Japanese restaurants, a dive centre, and watersports facilities. Furthermore, multiple pools and a fitness centre offer relaxation and activity, while entertainment options cater to families, ensuring that there’s something for everyone.
In addition to luxury, sustainability plays a central role in the project’s design. Coral restoration initiatives have been integrated to protect the surrounding marine ecosystem, reinforcing the project’s commitment to the environment.
A Landmark Project for the Future
Imran Farooq, CEO of SAMANA Developers, highlighted the significance of the project, underscoring the company’s growing influence in Dubai’s real estate market:
“Our strategic foresight and deep understanding of Dubai’s economic landscape have propelled Samana Developers to become the city’s seventh-largest developer. This expertise is now embodied in SAMANA Ocean Views Interiors by ELIE SAAB, a culmination of a shared vision to create an extraordinary destination where luxury, design, and natural beauty meet.”
With an investment of $598 million, the SAMANA Ocean Views project signals an important step forward in luxury real estate and the Maldives’ development. Scheduled for completion in 2029, the project promises a lifestyle experience unlike any other, in one of the world’s most desirable locations. Through this partnership with ELIE SAAB, SAMANA Developers is crafting a destination that will stand as a lasting symbol of elegance, luxury, and environmental care in the heart of the Maldives.
