Overview
Sobha Sanctuary is a large-scale, nature‑led residential community in Dubailand. It spans roughly 37.5 million square feet of open green space and is planned to host around 20 000 families. The master plan centres on a vast park of about 800 000 sq ft and a continuous green spine, with approximately half of the land reserved for parks, water bodies, and community facilities. Forest‑inspired villa neighbourhoods sit alongside apartment clusters, allowing the development to support schools, healthcare, and retail without sacrificing privacy. The community is designed around wellness, with a six‑kilometre leisure loop, a nine‑kilometre wellness loop, and extensive cycling networks. More than 50 000 trees and shaded trails create a cooler microclimate, while green corridors link residences to amenities such as a community mall, wellness centre, international schools, and a hospital.
Villas at Sobha Sanctuary range from four to six bedrooms and are offered as estate, garden, or courtyard homes. Estate villas occupy plots of roughly 4,955 - 7,191 sq ft with saleable areas around 4,905 - 7,192 sq ft. Garden and courtyard villas are more compact, with plots from about 1,730 to 3,251 sq ft and saleable areas around 2,459 - 4,154 sq ft. Interiors are designed for modern family life; each villa has a spacious living and dining area overlooking green spaces, an en‑suite guest room, a master suite with a walk‑in closet, and large outdoor terraces. Finishes include marble or large‑format tile flooring, high‑quality porcelain tiles in bathrooms and kitchens equipped with built‑in Bosch or Siemens appliances. Home automation, dedicated laundry areas, and separate maids’ rooms are standard. Ceiling heights range from about 2.7 metres in corridors to three metres in living areas, enhancing natural light and ventilation. Each plot enjoys direct access to landscaped open space.
Beyond the homes, residents can access a broad array of community amenities. Outdoor wellness facilities include jogging and cycling loops, fitness parks, yoga lawns, forest trails, and sports courts. There are forest‑themed parks, botanical gardens, and sensory gardens to encourage engagement with nature. Family‑oriented spaces offer adventure playgrounds, splash zones, creativity studios, and a teen lounge, while water‑based features such as a lazy river, beach lagoon, and hydrotherapy suites provide relaxation. A community mall, co‑working spaces, a social club, and an events lawn support daily needs and social interaction. This combination of low‑density living, integrated facilities, and dedicated green space underpins the project’s emphasis on wellbeing and long‑term liveability.
