Cove by Imtiaz

Cove by Imtiaz is an off plan residential tower by Imtiaz Developments in Dubai Land Residence Complex, Dubailand. It comprises 738 studio, 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom apartments above ground-floor retail, with amenities on the 1st floor podium, the 19th floor and the rooftop, and handover expected in Q1 2027.

Cove by Imtiaz is in Dubai Land Residence Complex, Dubailand, near the Al Ain-Dubai Road (E66). According to the developer's location map, Dubai Silicon Oasis, Dubai Academic City and Dubai Outlet Mall are within about 5 minutes by car; Global Village and Meydan Racecourse within about 10 minutes; Downtown Dubai, DIFC and Dubai International Airport within about 20 minutes; and Dubai Marina within about 25 minutes.

Studio apartments start from AED 590K ≈ USD 161K for 450 to 570 sq ft (42 to 53 sq m). 1 bedroom apartments start from AED 780K ≈ USD 212K for 700 to 950 sq ft (65 to 88 sq m). 2 bedroom apartments start from AED 1.20M ≈ USD 327K for 1,100 to 1,400 sq ft (102 to 130 sq m). The final price of a unit depends on its size, floor and layout within each range.

The developer's renderings show studio, 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom interiors in warm neutral tones, with wood panelled wardrobes, rose gold detailing, open-plan kitchens with dining space, and full-height glazing in selected living rooms. Renderings are indicative: the specification attached to the sales agreement defines the finishes that are delivered.

Amenities sit on three levels. The 1st floor podium, which Imtiaz calls Paradise Island, has a padel court, a running track, a family pool and pool bar, a kids' pool and kids' play area, mini golf, a BBQ area and seating areas. The 19th floor, named Zenith Fitness Haven and Lounge, holds the indoor and outdoor gyms, the club room, sauna and steam, a yoga pool and sun beds. The rooftop adds an infinity pool, cabanas, an open air cinema and a second BBQ area.

Handover of Cove by Imtiaz is expected in Q1 2027, and the developer's payment plan schedules the completion payment for 15 March 2027. The tower is currently under construction; progress against RERA inspection data is tracked in the Cove by Imtiaz construction updates guide.

Two date-based plans are offered, and both begin the same way: 20% on booking, then 10% on 15 April 2025, 5% on 15 July 2025, 10% on 15 November 2025, 10% on 15 March 2026 and 5% on 15 July 2026. Option 1 (60/40) takes the remaining 40% on completion, 15 March 2027. Option 2 takes 10% on completion and 30% after handover, paid at 2.5% per quarter over 3 years. Because the booking payment and all five dated instalments up to 15 July 2026 have already fallen due, buyers entering now settle the instalments already due at signing, per the developer's current terms.

Buyers pay a 4% DLD registration fee, calculated on the purchase price and settled at booking together with the 20% first instalment under both payment options. The fee is paid to the Dubai Land Department to register the sale, and it sits on top of the apartment price rather than forming part of it.

Yes. Cove by Imtiaz is freehold property, open to buyers of all nationalities, whether or not they live in the UAE.

Not through a single apartment at current starting prices. The property route to the 10 year UAE Golden Visa requires an investment of at least AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, and the largest tier at Cove by Imtiaz, 2 bedroom apartments from AED 1.20M ≈ USD 327K, starts AED 800K below that threshold. The Cove by Imtiaz Golden Visa guide explains how the threshold works and how each apartment type compares.

All off plan instalments for Cove by Imtiaz are paid into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with First Abu Dhabi Bank, and funds are released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The Cove by Imtiaz escrow account guide explains the protection in detail.

Yes. The full process, from reservation and the sales agreement to payments and registration, can be completed remotely, and I manage it end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of a remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.
