Dubai’s leading real estate force, SAMANA Developers, has officially partnered with global luxury fashion and lifestyle icon ELIE SAAB to unveil SAMANA Ocean Views interiors by ELIE SAAB — the first-ever branded real estate project by ELIE SAAB in the Maldives and SAMANA’s inaugural venture into premium branded residences. The grand launch, held at Dubai’s prestigious Madinat Arena, marked a major milestone for both brands, signaling a new era of luxury living in the Indian Ocean.
Nestled in the heart of the Maldivian archipelago, this breathtaking development is a mere 20-minute speedboat ride from Hanimaadhoo Airport or a 45-minute scenic seaplane journey from Malé. Spanning over 507,651 square feet, SAMANA Ocean Views offers 190 high-end residences including beachfront villas, overwater bungalows, and stylish poolside apartments. Each home is thoughtfully designed to reflect the serenity of the Maldives, featuring interiors curated by ELIE SAAB that blend neutral tones, opulent materials, and timeless sophistication.
Imran Farooq, CEO of SAMANA Developers, commented, “Our expertise in Dubai’s booming real estate market has made us one of the top developers in the region. With SAMANA Ocean Views, we are bringing that same excellence to the Maldives. This partnership with ELIE SAAB is the perfect union of visionary design and premium real estate.”
