Location and Connectivity  

The Sanctuary is located in Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City), close to Dubai Al Ain Road, providing convenient access to the city’s main hubs. The area is rapidly developing as one of Dubai’s most sought-after residential districts, combining privacy with urban connectivity. Nearby are prestigious educational institutions, including Kent College Dubai, nurseries, and everyday amenities such as Avenue Mall. The location allows residents to reach Downtown Dubai in approximately fifteen minutes by car, while Dubai International Airport is around twenty minutes away, making daily travel and international connections effortless.


Architecture and Villa Concept 

The Sanctuary is a gated collection of ultra-luxury villas designed by Ellington Properties, known for focus on refined architecture and high-quality finishes. The project features spacious villas with four to six bedrooms, with built-up areas reaching up to 1,350 square metres. Each residence is set on a landscaped plot with a private swimming pool, creating a true sense of secluded living. Homes are equipped with private lifts, garages, open terraces and balconies, while interiors are delivered with bespoke designer finishes, fitted kitchens and premium sanitary ware. The project is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2026.

Lifestyle, Amenities and Investment Appeal 

The Sanctuary is conceived as a calm residential enclave centred around nature and wellness. Residents benefit from a private lagoon with a beach-style setting, landscaped parks with children’s play areas, and communal spaces designed for relaxation and social interaction. A clubhouse with fitness facilities supports an active lifestyle, while picnic and barbecue areas, as well as dedicated dog-walking spaces, enhance everyday comfort. With its limited number of villas, strong developer reputation and prime MBR City location, The Sanctuary offers long-term value for both end users and investors seeking privacy, quality and capital appreciation in Dubai’s luxury villa market.
