“Samana Ocean Bay Tower A is off-plan, due in 2028, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 6 homes in the last 90 days at about AED 2,356 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.”

Samana Ocean Bay Tower A on the map

Three views of the same place, from the same direction. The other towers we cover are on all three: click one to open its page.

The map loads when you reach it.

3D: AI picture models of our towers (height and position from the map, detail approximate) and blocks from OpenStreetMap heights.

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 22 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

TypeOff-plan: soldOff-plan: per sq ftMedian asking
1-bedAED 2,048,250 (28)2,479– (0)
2-bedAED 3,238,417 (18)2,348– (1)
3-bedAED 3,772,506 (12)2,089– (1)
4-bedunder 5 (1)–– (0)

Rents are asking rents, not registered contracts. Yield = asking rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (1 of 63 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 (1). They stay in the list below with a label.

Too few off-plan sales to state a yearly change

59 off-plan sales in the last 12 months and 3 in the 12 months before. Each period needs at least 5.

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. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales. Off-plan sales are 100% of all sales in this tower, so the early quarters show launch prices.

Own a unit here?

Ask for a report on your unit: its sales history, the same type's sales in the last 12 months and the homes for sale against it. A licensed partner agent, named on the report with the registration number, sends it. BUY DUBAI is not a broker and takes no part in the sale.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 30 Sep 2025 to 22 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 (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., Developer material (the developer's own project page and brochure; marketing text, not residents)., Resident and public material found on the open web (one passage per block; source and date under each)., live adverts: community guide), read by an AI model on 26 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, building facts, the developer, a licensed photo.
