Villa del Garda – First-Row Serviced Boutique Residence on Dubai Islands
Villa del Garda is a first-row, serviced boutique residential project located directly on the marina and the Arabian Gulf within Dubai Islands. The development occupies a prime waterfront plot with open sea views, combining low-rise architecture and limited inventory. The project is developed as a 7-storey building with club-level parking, positioned for buyers who value privacy, scale, and direct access to the waterfront environment.
Waterfront Architecture & Terraced Form
The building is designed with a stepped architectural form that opens towards the water, allowing most residences to benefit from unobstructed sea or marina views. Deep terraces create shade, visual depth, and outdoor living space directly connected to the interiors.
Residential Unit Mix
The project offers a unit mix, including 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom apartments, as well as duplex residences and large-format residences. Unit types range from compact 1-bedroom apartments starting from approximately 605 sq.ft to 5-bedroom residences exceeding 9,100 sq.ft, including duplex configurations. This diversity allows the project to accommodate end users, families, and high-net-worth buyers within a single, cohesive residential concept.
Interior Spatial Structure
Interiors are organised around open-plan living areas with clear zoning between kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces. Kitchens are integrated into the living area through linear layouts and island configurations, supporting everyday use. Floor-to-ceiling glazing connects interior spaces to terraces, maximising daylight and reinforcing the waterfront orientation.
Material Palette & Interior Details
The interior palette is based on light stone flooring, warm neutral wall finishes, and custom joinery elements. Natural textures are used consistently across living spaces, bedrooms, and circulation areas to create continuity throughout the residence. Accent lighting, concealed fixtures, and integrated storage systems reflect a focus on clean detailing rather than decorative excess.
Duplex Living
Duplex residences are a part of Villa del Garda’s residential concept. These homes introduce vertical zoning, where living, dining, and entertaining areas are separated from private bedrooms across two levels. This format enhances spatial comfort and privacy, appealing to families and buyers seeking larger-format waterfront homes.
Location — Island A, Dubai Islands
Villa del Garda is situated on Dubai Islands, directly fronting the marina and the Arabian Gulf. The location combines a first-row waterfront setting with convenient access to mainland Dubai via Infinity Bridge. Residents benefit from proximity to beaches, marina promenades, and coastal leisure infrastructure while remaining within a comfortable driving distance of Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport.

Unit sizes range from 605 sq.ft for compact one-bedroom apartments to over 9,100 sq.ft for the largest five-bedroom residences.
All residences at Villa del Garda are designed with private balconies or terraces, reinforcing the indoor–outdoor living concept that defines the project’s waterfront character.

Parking for residents is provided at the club level, ensuring convenient and secure access while maintaining clear separation between residential spaces and vehicle circulation.

Investment Appeal of Villa del Garda By Mr.8 Development
Villa del Garda combines a first-row waterfront setting with a branded residential concept and long-term residency benefits, positioning the project as a focused investment opportunity on Dubai Islands.
Villa del Garda is located directly on the waterfront, overlooking the marina and the open waters of the Arabian Gulf. This first-line position secures unobstructed sea views, strong lifestyle appeal, and sustained demand.
As a branded residential project by Mr. Eight Development, Villa del Garda reflects a consistent design language, curated interiors, and a boutique residential scale. Branded residences benefit from higher perceived quality, stronger tenant appeal, and enhanced resale liquidity.
Qualifying property values at Villa del Garda allow eligible buyers to apply for the UAE Golden Visa. This allows eligible buyers to obtain long-term residency in the UAE, providing legal residency status linked to property ownership without the need for local sponsorship.
Location Advantages of Villa del Garda at Dubai Islands
Villa del Garda is located on Dubai Islands — Island A (The Central Island), in a waterfront setting shaped around marinas, promenades, and beach-facing neighbourhoods. The address gives the project what most buyers actually care about on Dubai Islands: immediate access to the sea, open horizons toward the Arabian Gulf, and a walkable shoreline environment where the public realm is built around the coastline.
The master plan around Island A is designed as a mixed-use coastal destination. It combines marina zones and marina village-style infrastructure with resort components, beachfront districts, and landscaped public routes—so everyday movement happens along promenades, not highways. This type of planning typically supports stronger long-term demand because it creates continuous activity from residents, visitors, and hospitality users.
Dubai Islands also integrates large-scale lifestyle anchors across the wider area: beach clubs, wellness and eco-resort components, sports and aquatic facilities, and multiple golf destinations (including both 9-hole and 18-hole formats). In parallel, the plan includes retail and dining nodes, a central mall function, and a dedicated arts/cultural district—elements that keep the location relevant beyond seasonal tourism cycles.
Connectivity is one of the practical advantages of Island A: the islands are linked to mainland Dubai via road connections, supporting efficient access to Deira, Downtown Dubai, and Dubai International Airport. For residents, that translates into an island lifestyle with daily-city convenience—waterfront calm at home, and straightforward travel to business districts, schools, and the airport when needed.
