“Villa del Gavi is off-plan, due in 2027, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 19 homes here in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026, at about AED 3,862 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 | Median asking |
|---|---|---|
| 2-bed | – (under 10) | – (2) |
| 3-bed | – (under 10) | – (1) |
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 58 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 3,862 per sq ft in the 12 months to 20 Oct 2026 (19 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.
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 2025: 58 sales of 58 units
Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

Sellers ask 12% less than buyers paid
3 homes are for sale in Villa del Gavi. The median advert asks 12% less per sq ft than the median off-plan sale of the same type in the last 12 months. 3 of 3 adverts ask the sold level or less. The median advert has been listed for 0 days; the oldest for 4 days.
| Type | For sale | Median asking | Asking per sq ft | Sold per sq ft (sales) | Asking over sold | Median time listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-bed | 2 | AED 4,233,000 | 2,749 | 3,809 (9) | -28% | 2 days |
| 3-bed | 1 | AED 7,200,000 | 3,664 | 4,166 (5) | -12% | 0 days |
How long the adverts have been listed
Each home for sale, closest to sold prices first
| Type | Sq ft | Asking | Per sq ft | Against sold | Days listed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-bed | 2,292 | AED 4,900,000 | 2,138 | -44% | 4 |

Adverts: one reading on 7 Oct 2026. Sold prices: off-plan sales in this tower in the last 12 months, 5 or more of the type. An advert has no unit number, so we compare the price per sq ft with the type, not with the same unit. An asking price is not a sale price. Days listed is from the date on the advert: an agent can place a home again as a new advert, so the real time for sale can be longer. We cannot show price cuts over time or the time to sell yet: these need more than one reading.
The official record
Checked, not found. We could not match this tower to a building name in the Dubai Land Department register, so sales before 2020, offices, shops, mortgages and gifts are not shown.
Sales, price cuts, new adverts and news, on WhatsApp. You choose what and how often.
Which side faces what
The direction of each landmark from Villa del Gavi, and the towers within 150 m that can stand in the way. What a home really sees depends on its floor and its side of the building. We do not have the unit positions for this tower yet, so we cannot tell you the view of one unit.
| Side | What lies that way |
|---|---|
| North | Omoria Hotel Residences, a tower 101 m away |
| North-east | Treppan Living Prive, a tower 91 m away · Meriva Collection Podium, a tower 122 m away · The Meriva Collection, a tower 122 m away · Esme Beach Residences, a tower 129 m away |
| East | Beach Walk Grand 2, a tower 125 m away |
| South | DIFC 9.8 km · Burj Khalifa 11.4 km · Dubai Design District 12.4 km · Sheikh Zayed Road 12.4 km · Dubai Creek and Ras Al Khor 12.7 km · Meydan racecourse 15.8 km |
| South-west | Jumeirah beach and the sea 11.8 km · Burj Al Arab and the sea 20.7 km · Dubai Marina skyline 28.9 km |
No resident reviews: the tower is not built
Nobody lives in Villa del Gavi yet, so there is nothing a resident can tell you. Reviews you see elsewhere under this name are about the sales office, the developer or another building. What we can show is below: what the developer and the documents say about the project. We add resident reviews after handover.

Method, sources and what we did not find
- Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 22 Jul 2025 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 (allsoppandallsopp.com, live adverts: community guide, metropolitan.realestate, propsearch.ae, refty.ai), 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.
