More than 1,000 investors were in attendance at the IMAX cinema at Meydan Hotel for the ‘premiere’ of the US$1 billion development. Executives hailed the evening as one of the most successful launches since the Dubai property market resurgence of the past twelve months.
Clients came from as far afield as the UK, KSA, Lebanon, India, Nigeria and Russia.
Developed by Damac Properties, the region’s leading luxury private developer, in partnership with Paramount Hotel & Resorts (PHR-FZ-LLC), the project offers an ambience and reflection of the Hollywood glamour and California cool lifestyle, synonymous with Paramount Pictures over the past 101 years.
“We were blown away with the positive response from clients looking to make their home in one of the most anticipated projects in Dubai,” said Ziad El Chaar, Managing Director, DAMAC Properties. “This is without doubt the biggest launch event in Dubai in the past five years, highlighting the strength in the market, especially in luxury branded serviced living.”
A recent report by Knight Frank showed that projects in Dubai associated with luxury brands are demanding nearly 60 per cent more value than non-branded projects in the same area. The report added that: ‘it seems likely that as global wealth creation expands, the demand for high-quality, branded residential developments in key global centres will undoubtedly rise.’
DAMAC Properties has already secured approval from RERA, TECOM, and DTCM and the plot of land has been fully paid for. All funds received from the initial unit sales have gone into the Escrow account, specifically tied to the project.
“Residents in the Middle East love going to the movies and enjoy the escapism, anticipation and fantasy that the experience offers,” said Thomas van Vliet, Chief Executive Officer, PHR FZ-LLC. “The Paramount Hotels & Resorts Hotel, luxury serviced residences and DAMAC Maison serviced apartments provide that experience in a high-class and stylish manner. The project will bring guests and residents closer to their favourite movies and actors, while creating a refined environment to escape and relax.”
The four towers which make up ‘DAMAC Towers by Paramount’ are brought together with a multi level plaza, offering a selection of themed food & beverage concepts, meeting & events facilities, a screening room, wellness & fitness centres, swimming pools, 24-hour kids club, retail, and merchandise all featuring the Paramount brand or select partner brands. Each tower stretches over 250 metres into the air.
DAMAC Properties have announced they will release the second phase of apartments during a road show in India and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The company will now host events in Mumbai and Delhi on 5 April 2013 and in Jeddah and Riyadh in KSA on 6 April 2013. There will be further events in Dammam and Mecca on 7 April 2013. Interested parties can register for the events at www.damacproperties.com .
The one, two and three bedroom serviced hotel residences will be managed by DAMAC Maison, the hospitality division of DAMAC Properties.
