The buyer of the villa was from Europe and was seeking a Dubai residence for himself and his family. “Among the requirements stated were a ready villa that was fully furnished and serviced.” Said Stephan Hirzel, Senior Global Property Consultant at LUXHABITAT Sotheby’s International Realty who transacted the property. “The Raffles Royal Villa was a perfect fit for the buyer as he wants to live the pampered lifestyle with Raffles service and enjoys the prestige of living at a luxurious beach club. We have been observing a trend of several UHNWIs arriving in Dubai looking for this level of five-star service with a world-renowned brand and looking to move into a serviced, fully furnished home immediately. The Raffles Residences & Penthouses is one of the few developments in Dubai that fulfill this exact need and ticks all the boxes.” Stephan also adds, “Another USP of the Raffles Residences & Penthouses include the ability to change up the classical design to a more contemporary style, keeping in mind changing tastes and trends to be delivered within a very short timeline of less than a year. If the buyer wants to go for this option and has that timeline, they will work hand in hand with the award-winning YODEZEEN Architectural and Interior Design Studio to develop the home of their dreams. This contemporary revamp will showcase sumptuous furnishings by revered Italian brands such as Minotti, B&B Italia, Giorgetti, Poltrona Frau, Visionnaire, Yael Golden Berg, Opera Contemporary, Casa Milano, Henge, and others.”
