Sobha Sanctuary

Sobha Sanctuary Villas Dubai Overview 

Sobha Sanctuary is the first project introduced within the new Sobha Sanctuary master community by Sobha Realty in Dubai. This freehold villa community covers around 37.5 million sq ft and is designed around nature, wellness and family living, offering four- to six-bedroom villas surrounded by green spaces and community amenities.

What makes Sobha Sanctuary different from many new villa communities in Dubai is its approach to bringing nature into everyday life. With more than 50,000 trees, around 50% open and green spaces, a central park of approximately 800,000 sq ft, and a 9+ km wellness and leisure loop, the project combines outdoor activities, family spaces and community facilities to create a more balanced living environment.

Location of Sobha Sanctuary

Sobha Sanctuary is located in Al Yufrah 1, Dubailand, near Dubai–Al Ain Road, placing the project in one of Dubai’s developing areas with several residential communities nearby. Designed as a self-contained community, the masterplan includes villas alongside a wellness centre, schools, healthcare facilities, a community mall, social spaces and green pathways.

This approach allows residents to access many daily needs within the community, while the location also provides connections to other parts of Dubai through the surrounding road network. Travel times may vary depending on the route, traffic conditions and future infrastructure development.

Key Feature of Sobha Sanctuary

The main feature of Sobha Sanctuary is its nature-focused approach to residential living. Green spaces, walking and cycling routes, sports areas and community spaces are integrated throughout the development, while the central park and wellness routes provide residents with opportunities for exercise, relaxation and outdoor activities within the community.

This design can be especially attractive for families who value more open space and a quieter environment, while the combination of natural surroundings and everyday amenities may support the project’s appeal among future buyers and tenants.

Amenities at Sobha Sanctuary

Sobha Sanctuary offers a wide range of wellness, sports, family and social facilities designed around everyday living. Beyond the typical pool and gym areas found in many villa communities, residents will have access to a wellness centre, meditation spaces, yoga, Pilates and Tai Chi areas, sauna and hydrotherapy facilities, along with walking and cycling routes, football and tennis facilities and outdoor fitness areas.

The community will also include a community mall, cafés, organic bistro, farmers’ market, co-working spaces, amphitheatre, children’s playgrounds, STEM learning lab and dedicated pet areas. Together, these amenities are designed to provide residents with many daily, recreational and social activities within the community itself.

Villa Interiors at Sobha Sanctuary

The villas at Sobha Sanctuary are offered in three main categories: Estate, Garden and Courtyard Villas, with different sizes and layouts to suit various family needs. Estate Villas include four-, five- and six-bedroom options and represent the largest homes in the community, with selected villas featuring a passenger lift, maid’s room, family living area and multiple covered parking spaces.

Garden and Courtyard Villas provide a more compact layout while maintaining private outdoor spaces and a connection to the surrounding greenery. The interiors include spacious living and dining areas, en-suite bedrooms, built-in wardrobes, large terraces and fitted kitchens with appliances from Bosch, Siemens or equivalent brands, depending on the villa type.

Sustainability at Sobha Sanctuary

Nature is a key part of Sobha Sanctuary’s design, with around 50% of the masterplan dedicated to open and green spaces. More than 50,000 trees, pedestrian paths and around 20 km of cycling routes are planned to encourage outdoor activities and a healthier lifestyle.

While the project includes green mobility and wellness features, detailed information about LEED certification, solar energy, energy savings, water recycling or waste management has not yet been provided.
