The 33 studio apartments in the Club Vista Mare, a beachfront residential and recreation project on the Palm Jumeirah, were sold out on the launch day itself with investors paying Dh23,000 per square metre.

Ali Rashid Lootah, Chairman, Nakheel, told Emirates 24|7: “We have sold all the 33 units that we had launched today (Sunday)as there is demand for properties on the Palm. Besides, these units were quite reasonably priced.”

Lootah said they will soon commence taking reservation for leasing of retail space and restaurants. Membership for the beach club will also be available for residents on the Palm.
