Solaya at La Mer starts from AED 13.8 million, on a 20/40/40 payment plan, with handover scheduled for Q2 2029. On that starting price, the Dubai Land Department fee works out to AED 552,000.
The published price and plan
Solaya is Meraas's beachfront community at La Mer, built across nine low-rise buildings holding 2 to 5-bedroom residences, garden homes and duplexes, topped by 18 signature garden houses, each with a private infinity pool. The AED 13.8 million starting price applies to the entry 2-bedroom residence, with current availability confirmed by your adviser.
| Detail | Figure |
|---|---|
| Starting price | AED 13.8 million |
| Payment plan | 20% booking, 40% construction, 40% handover |
| Handover | Q2 2029 |
| DLD fee (4%) | AED 552,000 |
How the three-step plan works
The 20/40/40 structure splits payment into three equal-weighted stages at construction and handover: 20% on booking, 40% during construction, and the final 40% at handover in Q2 2029. Your adviser confirms the exact calendar of construction milestones tied to your chosen unit.
What the AED 552,000 DLD fee covers
The Dubai Land Department applies a 4% registration fee on the purchase price. On Solaya's AED 13.8 million starting price, that is AED 552,000, paid through Oqood registration for this off-plan sale, with any additional fixed fees confirmed directly in the contract. This fee is budgeted separately from the 20/40/40 schedule.
What sits behind the starting price
Solaya sits directly on the Jumeirah coastline, within the wider La Mer destination of beach clubs, restaurants and retail. Interiors favour open-plan living with large glazed openings onto private gardens or terraces. The 18 signature garden houses, each with a private infinity pool, sit at the top of the unit mix above the 2 to 5-bedroom residences, garden homes and duplexes across the nine low-rise buildings.
Why the garden houses stand apart
A private infinity pool attached to a specific home, rather than a shared community pool, is one of the features that sets the 18 signature garden houses apart from the rest of the Solaya release. Pricing for that specific typology sits above the AED 13.8 million entry figure and is confirmed by your adviser based on current availability.
Planning around a Q2 2029 handover
A Q2 2029 handover gives a buyer several years to plan the 40% construction-phase instalment and the final 40% due at handover. Because both instalments carry equal weight in this plan, a buyer should budget for them as two comparable financial commitments rather than assuming one is lighter than the other.

Where the money is held before handover
As with any off-plan purchase in Dubai, every instalment under this plan is paid into an escrow account controlled by the Dubai Land Department rather than directly to Meraas. Construction progress against the Q2 2029 handover can be checked at any point through the DLD's Project Status Enquiry service, independent of updates from the developer itself.
Choosing Solaya within the wider La Mer setting
A buyer drawn to Solaya is usually drawn first to the La Mer setting itself, beach access, restaurants and retail within walking distance, before comparing unit sizes or the construction-phase instalment. Within that setting, the choice between a 2-bedroom entry residence at AED 13.8 million and a garden house with a private pool is less about the payment structure, which is identical across the release, and more about typology and budget.

What to confirm before you reserve
Before transferring the booking instalment, ask your adviser for the current price of your specific typology, whether that is the entry 2-bedroom residence or one of the 18 garden houses, and the full construction-phase schedule in writing. The 20/40/40 percentage structure stays the same across the release, but the absolute amount at each step changes with the final unit price.
