Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai: Sources and Prices Guide (2026)

Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai is a three-tower apartment project called Riviera Rêve by its developer, Azizi Developments, in the Riviera community of Meydan, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, where the developer’s own project page showed the status Under Development and a starting price of AED 2.35 million on 13 November 2026.

This guide to Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai reads the developer’s page as recorded in the project data file of that date, two Zawya reports, an Eye of Riyadh release, the Bayut and Property Finder project pages, and the official Dubai Land Department and UAE government pages that govern off-plan purchases.

The developer’s own page prints no handover date, no construction percentage and no unit count, so those figures come from other sources, and where they differ every figure is shown with its source and date and none is chosen.

It also covers the unit sizes and prices each source prints, the two payment plans in circulation, the Dubai rules on registration, escrow and fees, and a checklist of what a buyer can ask for in writing before reserving. Prices are in dirhams as printed, with dollar equivalents at the pegged rate of 3.6725 dirhams per US dollar.

Overview of Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai

The azizidevelopments.com project page presents Riviera Rêve as a residential apartment project in the Meydan – Riviera community of Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City), on a 2.7 km lagoon-like beach edge. The status it prints is Under Development, the type line reads 1 and 3 bedrooms, and the starting price is printed as AED 2.35 million with the word From. These details are recorded in the data file as read on 13 November 2026.

The page does not say which unit type carries the starting price. It prints no handover date, no payment plan and no construction percentage, and it links a brochure that was not opened for this guide. Its map pin sits at 25.17499 north, 55.31304 east, and it lists a gallery of renders and two undated site photographs.

Property Finder lists three buildings, and Bayut’s resale feed names Tower 1 and Tower 3. The towers are part of the fourth phase of Riviera according to the developer’s releases, with Riviera described there as 75 mid-rise and high-rise buildings with approximately 16,000 residences. The contractor named in those releases is Gardinia Contracting.

The rest of this guide takes these items in turn. Anything described as calculated is arithmetic from a printed figure and is not a price or a promise from any party.

What each source prints about status, handover, price and payment

A buyer reading about Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai meets several versions of the same facts, each carrying a different date. The table below puts them side by side. It is a record of what is printed, not a ranking, and no row is treated as more correct than another.

The Zawya press release and the Zawya and TradeArabia report carry the same Azizi announcement. Neither page shows a publication date in the text read on 13 November 2026, so the 79 percent figure is recorded as undated. The Eye of Riyadh release is dated Sunday 28 September 2025 and reports 56 percent.

The Albawaba release of 31 March 2026 is recorded in the data file with a 74 percent figure; that page returned an access refusal to a plain request on 13 November 2026, so it is cited here as the data file records it and was not re-read.

On the same day the Property Finder project page showed the word Ready in its header block beside a timeline that reads construction progress 62.79 percent, latest update 4 December 2025, and expected completion 30 October 2024. These items sit on one page and are reproduced as printed. The launch dates also differ slightly between sources, 25 August 2022 in the developer scope pass and 1 July 2022 on Property Finder; both are recorded and neither is preferred.

Every handover year printed by a source is shown in the next table with its date, because a buyer will meet each of them in searches. The developer’s own page prints none, which is why the sales contract is the only place where a handover date binds anyone.

Construction progress by component, 56 percent to 79 percent

The most detailed public information about this project is the pair of progress releases from Azizi Developments. The first is dated 28 September 2025 and reports 56 percent completion overall. The second, undated in the text read, reports 79 percent. Both break the figure into components, which lets a reader see what had been done at each stage rather than only the headline.

Two points explain why these figures should be read with care. First, the percentages are the developer’s own, issued in press releases; no independent inspection report is attached to either. The Dubai Land Department publishes a project status service through which a registered project’s inspection details can be viewed, and that is the place to ask for a figure that is not the developer’s.

Second, the worker counts refer to different scopes. The September 2025 release speaks of workers currently deployed, while the later release says 1,100 workers across the Beach Front plots. A change in scope of that kind means the two counts are not a measure of how the site changed, and no conclusion is drawn from them here.

Reading the table, structural work was already near done in September 2025 and facade and tiling were the components that moved most between the releases. The sequence of trades is ordinary for a tower: frame, blockwork and plastering, then mechanical and electrical systems, then facade, tiling and finishes. The later release also gives the pool and elevator works their first percentages, 57 and 48, which are the two items most visible to a future owner.

The change column is plain subtraction. It does not say how long the interval was, because the second release carries no date in the text read, and no monthly rate is calculated for that reason.

Unit types, sizes and prices by source

The developer’s type line for the project reads 1 and 3 bedrooms, while Property Finder lists studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments and a penthouse category. The developer page does not print a size table. The sizes below are Property Finder’s, shown in square feet as printed with a square-metre value calculated at 0.092903 square metres per square foot.

Some one-bedroom figures differ between pages. The data file records starting sizes of 709, 710, 793 and 795 square feet for the one-bedroom type on different pages, and Property Finder’s own two snapshots differ in the top of the one-bedroom range and the bottom of the two-bedroom range. These are different dates of the same site or different broker texts, and they are recorded, not repaired.

The only price the developer prints is the starting price. The AED 2.35 million figure converts to about USD 639,891 at the pegged rate of 3.6725 (2,350,000 divided by 3.6725), and the payload value of AED 2,357,355 gives about USD 641,894. Property Finder prints a launch price of 1.4 million AED, which is about USD 381,212 by the same arithmetic.

The two starting figures differ by about AED 950,000, and the pages do not say whether they refer to the same unit type or the same date.

Bayut’s page also lists resale offers inside the project. On 13 November 2026 it showed ten listings, from AED 1,149,000 for a 497 sq ft studio in Tower 3 to AED 3,000,000 for a 1,209 sq ft two-bedroom in Tower 1 and an 833 sq ft one-bedroom in Tower 3. One-bedroom asking prices ran from AED 1,999,000 to AED 3,000,000 across sizes of 706 to 834 sq ft.

These are listing-site asking prices from sellers and agents; they are not Azizi prices and say nothing about what the developer sells now.

The data file also records Property Finder’s sold transactions as a range of roughly AED 1.36 million to 5.54 million, and a studio resale range of AED 1.1 million to 1.4 million. Wide ranges like these mix unit types, floors and dates, so no average is drawn from them. A buyer comparing offers should ask for the unit number, the floor, the view and the date of each figure.

Payment plans in circulation, and how to read them

The developer’s page for the project prints no payment plan. Two plans appear on portals, and a few broker snippets in the data file print others that were not opened. The table sets out each as printed. Applying a plan to a price is arithmetic, and the illustration column uses the developer’s AED 2.35 million starting figure only to show how the percentages work; it is not an offer for any unit.

A plan expressed as percentages becomes real only in the sale and purchase agreement, which lists each instalment by date or by construction stage. For an off-plan unit in a registered Dubai project, buyer payments go to the project’s escrow account, and the Dubai Land Department describes the escrow account as the account in which the amounts collected from purchasers of units sold off the plan are deposited.

Whether the instalments follow dates or construction milestones changes the buyer’s position. A date-based schedule runs regardless of progress, while a milestone-based schedule ties each payment to a stage certified in a technical report. The agreement states which applies, and the buyer can ask for the schedule in a table with dates, percentages, amounts and the stage that triggers each payment.

Government fees, service-charge deposits and any administration fee are normally separate from the instalments in the table. The section on Dubai rules below shows the fee amounts the Dubai Land Department prints. Whether they are included in a given plan is a point for the contract, not an assumption.

The Riviera community and the amenities each source lists

Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai sits inside Riviera, which Azizi’s releases describe as a French Mediterranean-inspired waterfront community of 75 mid-rise and high-rise buildings with approximately 16,000 residences. The Eye of Riyadh release names three districts: a retail boulevard, a lagoon walk on the shores of a 2.7 km swimmable crystal lagoon with eateries and boutiques, and a green social space called Les Jardins.

The same release gives the lagoon’s area as 130,026 square metres and says it holds more than 51.5 million gallons of desalinated water. These are developer figures from a press release; no independent measurement was found. Riviera is a master plan with several phases, so some of what the district descriptions mention is outside the three Rêve towers.

The amenity lists differ between the developer’s page and the press releases. The table keeps them apart so that a reader can see which statements are on the project page and which come from a release or a portal. Items that are marketing adjectives are left out, and only the named facilities are listed.

The Eye of Riyadh release also lists finishes: cascading-water entrances, Calacatta Sponda marble flooring, big-slab porcelain walls, frameless floor-to-ceiling windows, panoramic lifts and smart-home systems. Bayut adds European-style cabinetry. These are the developer’s and the portal’s descriptions of what is intended. The finish schedule that binds a buyer is the one attached to the sales agreement, and a section below lists how to ask for it.

Of the images supplied with this listing, eight are renders and two are the developer’s own photographs of the towers under construction. The renders show the intended design and are not photographs of completed buildings.

Location of Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai: Meydan, MBR City and the distances

The project’s map pin on the developer’s page is 25.17499 north, 55.31304 east. The developer’s text places Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai in Meydan – Riviera, MBR City. Wikipedia describes Mohammed Bin Rashid City as a planned mixed-use development announced in November 2012 and says the land is bordered by Emirates Road, Al Khail Road and Sheikh Zayed Road.

The developer’s page prints drive times to seven places, and Bayut names the roads that serve the area: Al Khail Road (E44), Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) and Business Bay, without distances. The developer’s descriptive text says that Jumeirah Beach and Downtown Dubai are within 15 minutes, while its list says Downtown Dubai is 10 minutes. The list is the more specific figure, and both are shown below as printed.

The straight-line figures are haversine distances between the developer’s map pin and points taken from OpenStreetMap on 13 November 2026: Burj Khalifa, Meydan Racecourse, Festival City Mall, Dubai International Airport and Palm Jumeirah. They measure the air distance, not the road, and are not a travel time. Drive times depend on the hour and the route, and the developer does not say how its minutes were measured.

Readers who want to place the project should look at which side of Al Khail Road the plot lies on, how the Riviera internal roads connect, and which entrance the towers use. The developer’s page and the map pin show a community-level pin as well, at 25.16066 north, 55.30906 east for Meydan – Riviera, which differs from the project pin by a short distance. The registered plot number, found in the sale contract and the DLD project record, settles the exact position.

No source read prints a Metro station, a school or a hospital distance for this project, and none is invented here. A buyer who cares about a particular amenity can ask the seller for the route and check it on a map at the time of viewing.

Buying off-plan in Dubai: freehold, registration, escrow and fees

Several steps that apply to this project apply to every off-plan purchase in Dubai. The sources are official, and each statement below names its page. The rules can change, so the dated pages should be re-read before any contract is signed.

Ownership. Law No. (7) of 2006 on the Dubai legislation portal says that the right to own real property in the emirate is restricted to UAE nationals, nationals of the Gulf Cooperation Council states, companies fully owned by them and public joint stock companies.

It adds that, with the Ruler’s approval, non-UAE nationals may in certain areas determined by the Ruler be granted freehold ownership without time restriction, or usufruct or leasehold up to 99 years. Property Finder labels the project freehold. The area designation and the title type for the specific unit are confirmed in the contract and the DLD record.

Project registration and escrow. The Dubai Land Department service page on registering a project states that the service lets development companies register a project and open an escrow account for off-plan sales.

Its terms list that the land must be in freehold or long-term lease areas, that an ownership deed must be available, and that a 30 percent guarantee is submitted in one of three forms: completion of 30 percent of construction, a bank guarantee for 30 percent, or a cash deposit for 30 percent. The registration fee printed is AED 150,000 plus AED 10 knowledge and AED 10 innovation fees.

The Dubai Land Department page on escrow account activation lists the conditions under which the developer may draw on the escrow account. They depend on a recent technical report from the Dubai Land Department, not older than three months, and on whether a bank guarantee, a developer contribution, financing or financial solvency applies.

The Dubai Land Department FAQ says that all amounts received from buyers of units sold off-plan are deposited in the project escrow account and that the escrow law applies to all developers selling off-plan in Dubai; it names Law No. 8 of 2007.

Registering the sale. The Dubai Land Department service page on registering the initial sale says the developer registers units sold off-plan in the provisional register through the Oqood portal, and that the contract is registered within 90 days from signing. It prints the fees as 2 percent of the sale value for the seller and 2 percent for the purchaser, plus AED 10 knowledge and AED 10 innovation fees.

The Dubai Land Department notice of 31 May 2021 says that the buyer submits the required fees, 4 percent of the property’s value, to the developer and that the developer should pay them within 60 days.

The two descriptions of the fee, 2 percent each side on the service page and 4 percent paid by the buyer in the 2021 notice, are both quoted as printed. Which party bears which share is set by the contract, and property portals state the government fee as 4 percent. The next table shows what 4 percent comes to on three figures from this guide. These are calculations, not quotes.

Add the AED 20 in knowledge and innovation fees printed on the service page, and any administration or trustee fees the contract names. A mortgage adds its own registration charge and bank fees; see the guide on mortgages for foreigners linked in the sections below.

Service charges, taxes and the Golden Visa rule

Three recurring or conditional items matter after the purchase of a unit in the Rêve towers. They are set by authorities, not by this guide or by the developer’s marketing, and each is stated here as the source prints it.

Service charges. The Dubai Land Department FAQ defines the service charge as the annual financial charge approved by the Real Estate Regulatory Agency and collected from owners of units to cover the management, operation, maintenance and repair of jointly owned property, subject to control and auditing. No source read for this project prints a service-charge figure, so none is given. The buyer asks for the estimate for the specific tower and unit, and for the name of the management company.

Taxes. The u.ae taxation page states that the UAE does not levy income tax on individuals and that it levies 5 percent value added tax on goods and services, excise tax on specified goods, and corporate tax on corporations. That summary does not list an annual property tax.

Whether a municipal housing fee applies through the utility bill is not covered by a source read for this guide and is left out. The guide on property tax in Dubai on this site discusses the point, and the mortgage guide for foreigners covers financing.

Residence. The u.ae Golden visa page lists investors in public investments or real estate as an eligible category, with a minimum capital of AED 2 million and, in the table printed there, 5 years for real estate investments and 10 years for public investments. The page also says the visa is renewable and sponsor-free. It does not say whether any particular unit, or an off-plan unit with unpaid instalments, qualifies.

Eligibility for a given purchase is not claimed here and is checked with the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security or the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs. The Golden Visa guide on this site covers the property route in more detail.

What to ask for in writing before reserving

Because the developer’s page for Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai prints no handover, payment plan or unit count, the written documents carry more weight than usual. A buyer can ask for the items below before signing or paying a reservation, and can ask them of the developer or its sales team.

1. The sale and purchase agreement draft with the unit number, floor, tower, internal area in square feet and square metres, and the view or orientation stated.
2. The handover date, written as a date in the contract, with the definition of handover and what the agreement says if the date moves.
3. The payment schedule as a table, stating whether each instalment follows a date or a construction stage, and the AED amount of each.
4. The name of the escrow account and its bank, and the account details to which payments are made.
5. The Dubai Land Department project number and the project’s registration certificate, which can be checked in the project status service.
6. The Oqood registration of the sale and the date by which it will be completed, plus the receipt for the fees paid.
7. The service-charge estimate for the tower, the management company’s name and the first-year billing basis.
8. The finish and fittings schedule, including flooring, kitchen cabinets, appliances, smart-home items and air-conditioning, so that renders are not the only description.
9. The legal name of the selling entity and the person who signs for it, with proof of authority.
10. Which party pays the registration fee, the admin fees and the trustee fees, and when.
11. Whether the unit is freehold and the area designation on which that rests.
12. For a resale unit, the seller’s title or Oqood record, any mortgage, and the developer’s no-objection certificate for transfer.

A list like this does not replace a lawyer who reads Arabic and English. It records what a careful buyer asks, and the answers are written down with their dates so that they can be compared later with the construction status the project status service shows.

If the seller is a person who bought earlier, the same list applies with two additions: the original sale agreement and the receipts for every instalment paid to the developer. The Dubai Land Department’s registers, not the portal listing, show who owns the contract right.

Other Azizi projects and nearby Dubai listings

Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai is one of the Azizi Developments projects on this site. The Riviera master plan has several buildings and phases, so projects in the same community are listed first. No project is described as better than another, and the table shows what each page prints.

Further reading on this site includes the off-plan buyers guide, the page on whether foreigners can buy apartments in Dubai, the comparison of freehold and leasehold in Dubai, the Dubai market guide and the directory of Dubai developers. Figures in older guides may be out of date, and the official pages named in this guide are the reference. Related pages: Dubai and the United Arab Emirates archive.

Azizi Developments (developer)

The legacy page of Azizi Developments says the company was established in 2007 and is headquartered in Dubai. Its press material names Mirwais Azizi as Founder and Chairman of Azizi Group and Farhad Azizi as Group CEO. This is as attributed to the developer; no share-ownership breakdown was found. The azizidevelopments.com pages sit behind a bot checkpoint for plain requests, so the company facts in this section are cited as recorded in the company data file of 13 November 2026.

According to Azizi press releases of September 2026, the developer has delivered more than 45,000 homes, and it reports more than 150,000 units under construction at various stages. The legacy page gives a similar figure of 45,000 homes. In its timeline it records an agreement with Nakheel in 2009 for the Al Furjan community, the launch of Azizi Riviera in 2017, and further communities including Azizi Venice, Azizi Milan and Dubai Islands among those named.

The developer also describes in-house manufacturing of facade, steel, HVAC ducting and marble components, and names Gardinia as its construction partner. The Azizi release that gives the 79 percent progress figure names Gardinia Contracting as the contractor on the Beach Front plots. These descriptions are the company’s, from its own pages and releases of 2026, and nothing here is an independent assessment.

Frequently asked questions

Where is Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai?

The developer places Riviera Rêve in Meydan – Riviera, part of Mohammed Bin Rashid City, and its map pin is at 25.17499 north, 55.31304 east. Bayut files it under Meydan One. The developer’s page prints drive times, such as 2 minutes to Meydan Racecourse and 10 minutes to Downtown Dubai, and does not print a street address. The plot number in the contract fixes the exact position.

Who builds Riviera Rêve?

The developer is Azizi Developments. Azizi’s releases name Gardinia Contracting as the contractor, with 1,100 workers on the Beach Front plots in the later release. The pages read do not name the architect or the interior designer, so none is given. The selling entity named in the contract is the one to confirm in writing.

What is the handover date of Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai?

The developer’s page prints none. An Azizi release carried by Zawya speaks of an expected Q4 2026 completion timeline. Bayut prints Q4 2025 and Property Finder prints October 2024 and Q4 2024. These are dated differences between pages. The sale contract is where a handover date is stated for a buyer, and the project status service shows the registered project.

How much do the apartments cost?

The developer’s page prints a starting price of AED 2.35 million, about USD 639,891 at 3.6725, without naming the unit type. Property Finder prints a launch price of 1.4 million AED. Bayut’s resale asking prices on 13 November 2026 ran from AED 1,149,000 to AED 3,000,000. These are different kinds of figure, and a written price list with unit numbers settles what applies.

Is Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai still on sale or sold out?

The developer’s page showed a starting price on 13 November 2026, and Bayut lists resale units. Neither statement shows how many units the developer still holds, and the pages read print no unit count and no sold-out wording. The developer’s current availability is confirmed in writing for a named unit.

Which payment plan applies?

The developer’s page prints none. Property Finder shows two plans, 10 percent at launch, 30 percent during construction and 60 percent on handover, or 10, 40 and 50, with four instalments in the second. Other broker snippets print different splits. The agreement for the unit states the plan, and each instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account.

What fees apply when buying off-plan in Dubai?

The Dubai Land Department prints 2 percent for the seller and 2 percent for the purchaser on the initial-sale service page, plus AED 10 knowledge and AED 10 innovation fees, and a 2021 notice speaks of the buyer submitting 4 percent of the property’s value. Portals state the government fee as 4 percent. The contract says who pays which share.

Can a foreigner buy a unit here?

Law No. (7) of 2006 allows non-UAE nationals freehold ownership in areas determined by the Ruler, with approval. Property Finder labels the project freehold. The area designation and title type for a unit are confirmed in the contract and the Dubai Land Department record, which is more reliable than a portal label.

Does buying here qualify for the Golden Visa?

The u.ae page lists real estate investors with a minimum capital of AED 2 million. It does not say whether a given off-plan unit qualifies, and this guide makes no claim. The Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security and the residency authority decide eligibility. The guide on this site on the Golden Visa explains the property route.

How current is this guide to Azizi Riviera Reve Dubai?

The data was read on 13 November 2026. The developer’s page was recorded in the project data file of that date and was not reopened for this text. The Zawya, Eye of Riyadh, Bayut, Property Finder and Dubai Land Department pages were read on that date. The Albawaba release is cited from the data file. Prices and availability change, and the dates are shown with each figure.
