Samana Skyros

Samana Skyros is a 17-storey, 441-unit residential tower by Samana Developers in Arjan — the largest and tallest building in Samana's Greek-island-inspired portfolio. Named after the Aegean island of Skyros, the tower takes the developer's proven resort-living formula — private pools built into apartment balconies, Mediterranean-inspired architecture, and lifestyle amenities — and scales it vertically, adding a rooftop amenity floor with a basketball court, jogging track, outdoor cinema, and lounge that none of Samana's earlier low-rise projects could accommodate. The result is a building that combines the holiday-home aesthetic with the unit mix, views, and amenity depth of a full-scale residential tower.

Architecture & Design

The façade draws from Mediterranean motifs — white exteriors punctuated by translucent glass pools visible from below and long glass balconies that give the building a distinctive, layered visual profile. Samana has also introduced eco-conscious design features absent from their earlier projects — solar panels, integrated greenery, and water conservation systems — positioning Skyros at the more sustainable end of Samana's product range.

• 17 storeys — Samana's first high-rise in the Greek island series

• Translucent private pool balconies — an architectural statement visible from the street

• Mediterranean exterior motifs with modern interiors

• Solar panels, water conservation & integrated green landscaping

• Smart home features throughout

• Ground-level retail & commercial outlets

• 441 residential units — the largest Samana Greek island project

Residences — Private Pool Apartments at Scale

Studios and 1-bedrooms are offered in two configurations: pool terrace or standard balcony. All 2-bedroom apartments come with a private pool as standard, regardless of floor level.

Amenities — Rooftop-Led for the First Time

The 17-storey height unlocks an amenity tier Samana's low-rise projects could not offer — a full rooftop floor with sport, entertainment, and social facilities in addition to the pool-deck and wellness program at podium level:

• Large leisure pool deck with sun loungers + kids' pool

• Rooftop basketball court

• Rooftop jogging track

• Rooftop lounge

• Outdoor cinema

• Waterfall features throughout landscaped areas

• Indoor & outdoor gym / health club

• Sauna & steam room

• Kids' play area

• Landscaped communal gardens & green spaces

• Basement parking, 24/7 security & high-speed elevators

Location — Arjan, Dubailand

Arjan is a well-connected freehold community off Umm Suqeim Street, anchored by two of Dubai's most-visited tourist attractions — Miracle Garden and Butterfly Garden — and served by the nearby Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road. The neighbourhood has matured significantly in recent years, with growing retail, healthcare, and schooling infrastructure:

• 5 min to Mall of the Emirates

• 5 min to Dubai Miracle Garden & Butterfly Garden

• 10 min to Global Village

• 15 min to Dubai Marina

• Near Medcare, Aster, and other healthcare facilities in Arjan

• Ground-floor retail within the building — daily essentials on-site

Why Invest in Samana Skyros

Samana Skyros addresses the two limitations of the developer's earlier Greek-island projects: height and unit diversity. At 441 units across 17 floors, investors benefit from a wider selection of floor levels and configurations — particularly the pool-terrace vs balcony choice within the same unit type, allowing investors to calibrate capital outlay against expected rental premium. Arjan consistently delivers 7.5%+ gross rental yields, and Skyros' private-pool units command a measurable premium over standard apartments in the same postcode. The eco-features (solar, water conservation) also appeal to an expanding segment of environmentally conscious tenants. Handover Q2 2027 on a 25/75 payment plan.
