About Arno
Arno is a low-rise residential complex in The Views, part of Emirates Living, developed by Emaar Properties. The development comprises three individual seven-storey buildings, known as Arno A, Arno B and Arno C, together also marketed as Arno Riverside. It was launched as a freehold project in 2005 and completed in 2006. The complex totals 177 residential apartments alongside a small selection of ground-floor retail units, and follows a Mediterranean architectural style, with terracotta-toned detailing and arched window features.
Arno takes its name from the river that runs through Florence and Pisa in Italy, a naming choice rather than any business relationship. This guide covers only the residential complex in The Views, Dubai; readers researching the actual Arno river in Tuscany will not find that content here.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Royale Stays’ confirmed apartment markets are Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai and JBR. The Views sits outside these areas, so this guide does not quote an Arno-specific Airbnb earnings figure, and Royale Stays makes no claim of managing a unit in the building today.
Arno is a standard freehold Emaar apartment development, not a hotel-branded or serviced-apartment building, so the usual owner-direct DTCM holiday-home permit application would apply for an owner looking to list a unit short-term, and there is no confirmed prohibition on short-term letting here. Royale Stays’ Airbnb management services, furnishing, photography, dynamic pricing, guest communications, check-in and maintenance coordination, are available from a management fee starting at 15%. Owners can submit their property for a free assessment.
Royale Stays has no current partnership, affiliation, or commercial relationship with Emaar Properties. This page is an independent building guide for owners and investors researching Arno.
