Sobha Hartland
Sobha Hartland is the original community, laid out around the idea of weaving nature into daily life. It has the widest range of homes, from apartments to villas and townhouses.
Sobha Hartland II
Hartland II adds two lagoons, one for apartments and one for villas, more than a million sq ft of green space and a planned school and retail space. If lagoon access and large villas matter, this is the one to look at.
The three Skyscapes
Aura (the sequel to Avenue), Avenue and Altius all offer one to three bedroom waterfront apartments with more than 40 amenities, a co-working space, a zen garden, a leisure pool, a music room and an art room. Altius is marketed at 85 floors. Since the amenity list is the same, the real choice is height, view and price per sq ft.
