Villanova
Villanova is a residential district in DubaiLand aimed at the so-called affordable housing sector. There are three clusters of properties, 'Amaranta', 'La Quinta' and 'La Rosa'.
The project was first announced by Dubai Properties in October 2016.
Villanova properties include ‘cluster homes’, apartments and detached villas.
The cluster homes are groups of four houses of different types, each with its own back garden, set around an enclosed shared courtyard.
The Mediterranean style houses are designed to be family-friendly and are surrounded by parks with walking and biking trails.
In January 2017 Dubai Properties announced 'La Quinta', a collection of three-, four- and five-bedroom villas, and in 2019 'La Rosa'..
