About this project
Ellington
Project general facts
This exclusive collection of villas is located within a private gated community. The development offers four- to six-bedroom villas in four distinct design styles, combining contemporary architecture with a private, nature-inspired residential setting. Each home features a rooftop terrace, courtyard, and private swimming pool, with a central lagoon just a short walk away.
The community is designed around landscaped outdoor spaces and a central lagoon, creating a tranquil environment for residents. Each villa comes with landscaped gardens, a barbecue area, sunken seating, and dedicated pool and garden areas. The gated setting offers privacy while keeping residents connected to the surrounding green spaces.
The villas feature carefully selected finishes, colours, and textures, combining materials such as marble, stone, and wood veneer. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring natural light into the ensuite bedrooms, while contemporary bathrooms feature subtle lighting and a soft colour palette. Temperature control is supported by air conditioning and water heaters, alongside building materials designed to reduce heat transfer. Kitchens are equipped with a gas stove, oven, fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and wine cooler. Show kitchens feature Miele appliances, while dirty kitchens are equipped with Siemens appliances. The villas are offered unfurnished.

Good to know
Straight answers from the developer's published terms, checked 21 Oct 2026.
When does The Sanctuary hand over?
+
Handover is scheduled for Q4 2025. Construction is 31.74% complete.
Who is the developer of The Sanctuary?
+
The Sanctuary is developed by Ellington in MBR District 11 (Meydan South) · Dubai · United Arab Emirates.
What is the service charge at The Sanctuary?
+
The published service charge at The Sanctuary is 4 AED/sqft, billed once a year. It starts at handover and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the annual budget behind the charge is filed with the Mollak system, so the figure is reviewed each year once the building is occupied. Checked 21 Oct 2026.
Is my money protected when buying off-plan at The Sanctuary?
+
In the UAE an off-plan instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer directly, and is released against construction progress the regulator has verified. No escrow account number has been published to us for The Sanctuary, which is not the same as there being none — an advisor can confirm the account with Ellington before you pay anything.
