Umm Al Quwain Marina second phase to open for sale soon

Umm Al Quwain, UAE, February 1, 2007: Umm Al Quwain Marina LLC, the joint venture between the government of Umm Al Quwain and Emaar Middle East, will soon launch the second phase of homes at Umm Al Quwain Marina. This follows good investor response to the first phase launched earlier this month.

“The investor response to the Mistral villa community, which we launched at Umm Al Quwain Marina, has been very encouraging, and we are launching the second phase earlier than planned,” said Mr Ahmad Al Matrooshi, UAE Managing Director, Emaar Properties and Member of the Board of Directors of Emaar Middle East. “Potential home-owners can visit the new Umm Al Quwain Sales Centre for more details on the villas remaining, and also an overview of the entire project.”

The Mistral community comprises a series of Spanish and Portuguese-styled villas. The two-storey, three-to-four bedroom homes are 3,458 to 4,311 sq ft in size. Prices start at AED 2.04 million. “As a world-class development that brings in a new lifestyle to the emirate, the Umm Al Quwain Marina offers an attractive option for home-owners and potential investors,” said Mr Al Matrooshi. “The good response to the first sale underscores the trust home-owners have in the project.”

The AED 12 billion (US$3.3 billion) Umm Al Quwain Marina development will feature over 8,000 homes including 6,000 villas and 2,000 townhomes, boutique hotels, retail outlets and recreational facilities set in a marina-themed environment. The newly opened sales centre, which serves as the sales and marketing centre, showcases true-to-type displays of the various components. Home owners can visit the sales centre from Saturday through Thursday from 9am to 6pm, and on Fridays from 10am to 6pm or call toll-free number 800-EMAAR for more details.

With 23 km of waterfront, the development also features sport and yacht clubs, waterfront resorts, schools and community centers. Extensive landscaping will offer residents and visitors easy access to waterfront recreation centers and other amenities.
