“Ocean Crest by Samana is off-plan, due in 2028, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 11 homes here in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026, at about AED 2,095 per sq ft. Sales are slow. Ask for a better payment plan before you sign, and compare the price with a completed tower next door.”

Construction progress: not found
We found no public progress record for this tower. Ask the developer for the latest inspection report from the Land Department.
Payment plan: not found
We checked the pages we hold for this tower and found no payment plan that passed our checks. We do not guess one. Ask the developer for the current plan.
Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom
Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, by the developer or by an earlier buyer (a Land Department "delayed sell"). The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A sold median needs 10 sales, an advert median 3 adverts.
| Type | Off-plan: sold | Off-plan: per sq ft | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No sales and no listings. | ||||||||
Sold prices: Land Department sale records to 20 Oct 2026, BUY DUBAI facts cube. Asking and rent are adverts, not contracts.
Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (0 of 11 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (0); a sale at exactly the same price as that unit's sale before (0); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (0). They stay in the list below with a label.
Too few off-plan sales to state a yearly change
Median AED 2,095 per sq ft in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026 (11 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.
Too few quarters with sales to draw a chart.
Bars: median AED per sq ft by quarter. Blue line and blue numbers under the bars: number of sales in the quarter. Last 16 quarters at most; Land Department records, quarters with 10 or more sales. Off-plan sales are 100% of sales in the last 12 months, so the bars can mix launch and resale prices.
Every sale since 2026: 11 sales of 11 units
Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

Method, sources and what we did not find
- Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 22 Jul 2026 to 19 Oct 2026, checked by year against Dubai Land Department open data. Our unit list does not hold every sale, so some sales are missing.
- Listings: one snapshot, 7 Oct 2026. Asking prices and asking rents.
- Residents and building facts: Google Maps reviews and guide pages (binayah.com, mavrixproperties.ae, metropolitan.realestate, offplanpropertiesdubai.ae, samanadevelopers.com), read by an AI model on 21 Oct 2026 with a fixed question list. A script checks that each answer names its source.
- Nobody visited the tower. Every fact is from a document, a map or a resident's review.
- Checked, not found for this tower: a Google Maps place, resident reviews, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
