MAK Developers
A 21-storey tower in JVC with 204 apartments, 45+ amenities over four levels — including a real sand beach, an island pool and a rooftop infinity pool — with handover scheduled for Q1 2027.
I’Sola Bella is MAK Developers’ first residential tower and an unusual one for JVC. The building is 21 floors, 204 apartments and a deliberately stacked amenity programme: a sand beach and island pool on the first floor, a club floor with a golf simulator and art studio on the eleventh, and an infinity pool, cigar lounge and outdoor cinema on the roof.
The reference is Isola Bella in Italy, and the developer has taken it literally — Italian-inspired interiors in a double-height lobby, Mediterranean colouring, and a beach a lift ride from your apartment. On a 3.8 m residential ceiling height the apartments sit above the JVC norm, and the amenity floors are taller again at 5 m.
The unit mix is heavily weighted to smaller homes: 92 studios and 76 one-bedrooms account for 168 of the 204 apartments, with 22 one-bed-plus-study, 13 two-bedrooms and a single three-bedroom. Three double-height retail units face the street. That mix tells you who the building is aimed at — JVC’s tenant market, with a small tail of larger homes at the top.
It is also a pet-friendly tower, which is rarer than the marketing suggests: an animal daycare, a pet walking track and a pet park are part of the plan rather than a promise to consider it later.

| Stage | Share | Note |
|---|---|---|
| On booking | 10% | Reservation |

Two complications worth knowing. The developer’s fact sheet and its payment-plan PDF describe the construction-stage timing differently — one sets calendar dates, the other ties the tranches to percentage of construction completed. And the 4% Dubai Land Department fee plus admin is payable on top. We get the current schedule in writing for the specific unit before anything is signed.
Property portals list studios from lower figures than the developer’s AED 800,000 headline. We quote the developer’s list and the actual unit price, not the portal teaser.
The amenities are the product here, spread across four dedicated levels. As published by the developer:

Yes — the amenity plan includes an animal daycare, a pet walking track and a pet park, and the developer markets it as pet-friendly.
The first amenity floor is planned with a real sand beach and an island pool. That is the developer's published specification; we check what is built before advising a buyer to pay a premium for it.
