What have buyers paid here?
Studio · 97 off-plan sales from Dec 2022 to Feb 2026
The middle price was AED 521,621: 48 of these 97 buyers paid less, 48 paid more, 1 paid exactly that. 49 of the 97 paid between AED 476,738 and AED 620,000.
Per sqft: 49 of the 97 paid between AED 1,199/sqft and AED 1,374/sqft.
Too few sold in the 12 months to this project’s newest off-plan sale to show those alone, so this is every off-plan sale of this home on record here.

Per sqft: 25 of the 47 paid between AED 1,193/sqft and AED 1,316/sqft.
Too few sold in the 12 months to this project’s newest off-plan sale to show those alone, so this is every off-plan sale of this home on record here.

Dubai Land Department · recorded sales Off-plan sales of homes in this project, on record with the Land Department · sales of finished homes are not mixed in, and apartments are not mixed with villas. A home size is shown only with 8 or more sales behind it. File dated 8 Oct 2026 · synced 8 Oct 2026.

- Off-plan homes:
- AED 1,563/sqft typical price · Sep 2026 · 52 home sales
- Finished homes:
- AED 1,377/sqft typical price · Sep 2026 · 15 home sales
Each line is the last full month with 5 or more sales, so a month that has only just begun is not shown. Two different purchases, so they are shown apart and never mixed. Each line counts homes of every size in the area, this project’s included, so read it as a backdrop and not as a price for one home.

What the records cannot tell you
- Whether the building will be finished on the date you were given.
- Whether the price is fair for the exact home you were offered. The sales above are what others paid.
- What the home will rent for, or what its yearly service charge will be, once it is built.
- Whether the person selling to you is a licensed broker. That one you can check yourself, free.

What would this size cost?
Enter the size from the brochure or the floor plan. We price it against what homes of that size actually sold for in Samana Santorini — not an asking price, and not this project’s overall typical price, which mixes every size together.

What it returns
A year of rent compared with what completed homes of that size actually sold for in Samana Santorini over the same twelve months. Prices are this project’s own recorded ready-home sales. Off-plan sales are left out because rent is paid on built homes. Rents marked this building are new rent contracts recorded in Samana Santorini itself. The rest are homes of the same size in Dubai Studio City, used where Ejari did not name the building. A red (i) marks a figure that rests on few records, with how many.
| Size | Price now, ready homes | Rents for | Yield before costs | Ready sales, 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 593.04K | AED 45,000/yrthis building · 29 new lets | 7.6% | 10 |
| 3 beds | AED 2.41M1 sale | AED 140,000/yrsame size in Dubai Studio City · 3 new lets | 5.8% | 1 |
Why this is lower than yields quoted elsewhere
The usual shortcut divides today’s rent by an average price. In a market that has risen as far as Dubai’s, the average is a historical price. Worked out with the typical price across every sale on record (AED 522.48K), a studio here reads 8.6% instead of 7.6%. The yield in the table above uses the AED 593.04K a completed one costs today. Every figure above uses the same twelve months, and completed homes only, on both sides.
What it returns after service charges
We have no recorded budget for this one, so this starts from a placeholder, not a measured figure. The real number is on your service charge invoice, or on RERA’s Service Charge Index. How to check it.
| Size | Charge / year | Rent after it | Yield before costs | Yield after service charge |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 5,837 | AED 39,163 | 7.6% | 6.6% |
Only the service charge is taken off.
Yield before costs: a year of rent as a share of the price.

Common questions about Samana Santorini
How much does a home in Samana Santorini cost?
Over the last twelve months, the typical price (the median: half sold for more than this, half for less) of a completed home in Samana Santorini was AED 593.04K for a studio (10 ready sales). These come from sales recorded by the Dubai Land Department. They are what buyers paid, not asking prices. Only completed homes are counted: off-plan sales are left out, because they sell at a premium and are not the same purchase.
How much is rent in Samana Santorini?
The typical rent (the median: half of the rent contracts were above this, half below) in Samana Santorini is AED 45,000/yr for a studio (29 new tenancies recorded in Samana Santorini itself). These rents come from the new rent contracts recorded in Ejari (Dubai's rent registration system) over the last twelve months. They are what tenants agreed to pay, not advertised asking rents. Ejari names the building on these contracts, so every figure above is a tenancy recorded in Samana Santorini itself.
What rental yield does Samana Santorini give?
The yield before costs on completed homes in Samana Santorini is about 7.6% on a studio. That is a year of rent divided by what completed homes of that size sold for over the same twelve months. Rent and price both come from the same period, which is why these read lower than yields quoted against an all-time average price. Service charges, agency commission and empty periods are not taken off, and in Dubai the service charge alone commonly takes a fifth to a third of the rent.
Is Samana Santorini selling off-plan or as resales?
45% of the 20 home sales recorded in Samana Santorini in the 12 months to 21 Sep 2026 were off-plan, and the rest were recorded as existing property rather than off-plan. That period ends at this project's own newest recorded home sale rather than today, so a development that finished selling years ago still reports the year it was actually trading.
When did Samana Santorini start selling?
The Land Department's register holds 180 home sales in Samana Santorini. The earliest was recorded in Dec 2022 and the newest in Sep 2026. That is when a home sale here was first recorded. It is not the same as when the project launched or completed: the register of sales carries no build date, so we do not publish one.

Handover competition
Low competitionThe handover date recorded with the Land Department, April 2025, has passed, and the Land Department's projects file does not record the project as complete. 2 other projects in Dubai Studio City have a handover date on record within six months either side of it. The Land Department's projects file of 15 Jun 2026 lists 10 other projects in Dubai Studio City as not yet finished, including 1 of the 2 listed below.

Buying in Samana Santorini?
Everything above is free and stays free. What this page cannot tell you is what your unit is worth — the typical price here covers every size at once, and a two-bedroom can be 1,062 or 1,558 sqft. Our report matches comparable sales to one unit's size, and adds the three checks that need a person to look things up in the Land Department's own systems on the day: the agent's licence, the project's escrow, and its registered status.
