dubai — Damac Properties has launched sales of Akoya Play, a collection of three-bedroom villas set around a water park.

Located at Akoya Oxygen, Akoya Play villas are priced at Dh1.05 million with a payment plan spanning three-and-a-half years. The villas are targeted at young couples and families and will offer views of the internatio­nal golf course and access to Vista Lux to explore a variety of internatio­nal shopping and dining venues.

“Sitting on a quiet enclave within Akoya Oxygen, Akoya Play offers a community living experience that sets the bar higher for Dubai’s luxury living landscape,” said Niall McLoughlin, senior vice-president, Damac Properties.

“With such low entry points, it encourages smaller income groups to enter the property market. However, one has to evaluate what one is getting for the money paid. There are no free lunches. One needs to see the size and layout apart from location and see if it works for them,” says Niraj Masand, director, Banke Internatio­nal, a Dubai-based real estate agency.

“A 1 bedroom + study + exclusive garden starting at Dh595,000 is a fantastic offer from Damac. To own a townhouse at this price, which is cheaper than even apartments in most communitie­s, is definitely a good investment for end-users and investors. With the convenient four-year payment plan, end-users should surely invest and own a home,” advises Mahendra Singh, managing director of Aurum Real Estate.
