Which SAMANA project fits your budget

Use the table below to build a shortlist around the home you need. Each figure identifies the apartment type or project entry point being compared, so a studio price is clearly distinguished from a two-bedroom price.

This shortlist focuses on five recent or featured residential projects. “Best” means the right fit for your budget, preferred location and space requirements. Allow for purchase charges in addition to the apartment price.

Under AED 700,000 for South Haven 2 and Downtown One

SAMANA South Haven 2 for a lower entry price

South Haven 2 is the lowest-priced entry in this five-project shortlist, with studios from AED 644,000 and sizes from 343.37 sq ft. Located in Dubai Industrial City, DIC 4, it suits buyers considering Dubai’s southern corridor and access to Jebel Ali, Expo City Dubai and Al Maktoum International Airport.

Choose South Haven 2 if your priority is a lower purchase price in Dubai’s southern corridor. Beyond the studio, pools, fitness facilities and work-friendly spaces give residents places to exercise, unwind and work close to home.

SAMANA Downtown One for a Downtown Jebel Ali address

Downtown One starts from AED 689,000, giving buyers another entry point below AED 700,000. Its Downtown Jebel Ali location makes it worth comparing if Sheikh Zayed Road and nearby Dubai Metro connections matter to your routine.

Choose between these projects by location first: South Haven 2 for Dubai Industrial City and the southern corridor, or Downtown One for a Downtown Jebel Ali address. Then compare the specific layout, outdoor area and complete payment schedule.

Under AED 1 million for a Greenfield 2 one bedroom

If a separate bedroom is your priority, SAMANA Greenfield 2 one-bedroom apartments start from AED 849,000 in Al Warsan. This gives couples, professionals and small households a clear alternative to buying a studio purely for its lower price.

Greenfield 2 combines resort-inspired shared amenities with a choice of layouts. Selected configurations include a study or convertible space, giving buyers more ways to use their home. Compare the approved floor plan for your preferred unit, particularly if you need room for working from home or visiting family.

Choose Greenfield 2 if you want a separate bedroom below AED 1 million and prefer an Al Warsan address. Its one-bedroom entry price makes the comparison especially useful for buyers deciding between a studio and a home with more privacy.

Two bedroom apartments under AED 1.5 million

A budget below AED 1.5 million opens up two-bedroom options across four of the selected projects. Compare these homes by storage, room arrangement and location, as well as price.

Greenfield 2 and South Haven 2 for family space

Greenfield 2 two-bedroom apartments start from AED 1.29 million, with sizes from 883 sq ft. South Haven 2 two-bedroom apartments with store start from AED 1.31 million, with sizes from 1,060 sq ft.

The starting-price difference is AED 20,000. If both locations work for you, compare the actual plans: how the bedrooms connect to the living area, where storage sits and how much space is allocated to the balcony. Total apartment area alone does not show how a home will function for your household.

SAMANA Portside for a flexible two bedroom layout

SAMANA Portside two-bedroom apartments start from AED 1.39 million in Downtown Jebel Ali. Selected layouts combine a private pool with a design that can adapt into a three-bedroom configuration, making Portside relevant to buyers who want flexibility as their household changes.

A guest room, workspace or additional sleeping area can change how long a home suits you. Review the approved convertible configuration and the final room dimensions before choosing your unit.

Downtown One for another Jebel Ali comparison

SAMANA Downtown One two-bedroom apartments start from AED 1.429 million. Two separate bedrooms, shared living space and balcony options make it another choice for households considering Downtown Jebel Ali.

Compare Downtown One and Portside side by side if you have already chosen the area. Start with the layout you would use every day, then assess the selected unit’s floor, outdoor space and payment dates.

Around AED 3 million for Ocean Crest in Dubai Islands

For a premium coastal address, SAMANA Ocean Crest two-bedroom apartments start from AED 3,009,000, with sizes from 1,156.58 sq ft. This places the two-bedroom entry point slightly above AED 3 million.

Choose Ocean Crest if a Dubai Islands address is central to your plans and your budget extends beyond AED 3 million for a two-bedroom home. Swimming pools, wellness facilities and outdoor recreation support a coastal lifestyle, while two bedrooms give family members or guests their own space.

Make the view, balcony arrangement and indoor layout part of your decision. Confirm the exact unit orientation and private-pool specification with our team, so your chosen home matches the lifestyle you have in mind.

How to budget for a SAMANA payment plan

Compare the full payment schedule alongside the purchase price. Where a 1% monthly plan applies, the monthly instalment equals 1% of the agreed property price. For an AED 644,000 apartment, that is AED 6,440 per monthly instalment.

The down payment and any additional milestone payments remain part of the commitment. South Haven 2 plans, for example, include additional 5% payments in months 6 and 12. At AED 644,000, each 5% payment equals AED 32,200; if payable alongside a 1% instalment, the combined amount is AED 38,640 in that month.

Set aside a separate allowance for applicable registration and administration charges, then consider ongoing service charges and any unit-specific maintenance costs. Our team can provide the cost sheet and dated payment schedule for the apartment you select.
