When will Samana Ibiza be handed over?

Samana Developers’ project page now says handover at Samana Ibiza is anticipated for Q2 2028 (accessed 11 October 2026). The Dubai Land Department (DLD) project register, where the project is filed as “Samana IBIZA”, project number 2897, lists a completion date of 28 February 2028 (via Continental Club). Launch listings gave Q1 2028, or March 2028 (Excel Properties), and Propsearch shows April 2028.

The bigger question is progress. The DLD inspection of 18 June 2026 recorded 3.1% complete. To reach 100% by 28 February 2028, the remaining 96.9 points would have to be built in about 20 months.

The DLD record gives a launch date of 25 September 2024 (Dubricks). Launch prices were from AED 675,000 (Data Habibi) to AED 699,000 for studios (Continental Club, Excel Properties). Samana’s page now shows a starting price of AED 1,036,667.

The register shows 446 sales, 1 of them a resale. Medians by type (Continental Club, transactions to 8 October 2026):

  • Studio, about 463 sq ft: AED 735,722 (255 sales).

Samana Ibiza payment plan

Samana publishes two plans (accessed 11 October 2026):

Stage Non-PDC plan PDC plan
Booking 20% 15%
Monthly, 42 months 1% a month (42%) 1% a month (42%)
Month 12 10% 10%

Final stage 0.5% a month for 46 months (23%) 0.5% a month for 56 months (28%)

Continental Club lists the non-PDC plan as 77/23. Excel Properties describes the final stage as post-handover, with 1% due on handover. Other launch-era listings show a 25/50/25 plan (JRE, Ezre), so the plan in a given SPA may differ.
