About Sondos Rosa
Sondos Rosa is a residential building in DubaiLand Residence Complex, Wadi Al Safa 5, Dubailand, Dubai, developed by Al Sondos Holding through its subsidiary Al Sondos Real Estate. Also known as Al Sondos 52 Rosa Building, construction began in late 2008 and the building was completed in December 2010. It consists of approximately 103 units in total: one ground-floor retail unit plus 28 studio apartments, 42 one-bedroom apartments and 32 two-bedroom apartments. The built-up area is approximately 167,347 sq ft.
Sondos Rosa is one of several sister buildings within DubaiLand Residence Complex developed by Al Sondos Holding and named after flowers, including Sondos Lily, Sondos Orchid, Al Sondos Lilac and Sondos Sage. Each is a separate, physically distinct building with its own unit count, floor area and completion date, not part of Sondos Rosa itself. Al Sondos Holding also develops several other, unrelated properties elsewhere in Dubai under similar naming, including Al Sondos Tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, Marina Mansions in Dubai Marina and Al Sondos Oasis in Dubai Silicon Oasis, none of which are part of this DubaiLand complex.
The building's own developer lists it as 2 basement levels plus ground floor plus 7 residential floors plus a rooftop level ("2B + G + 7 + HC"), the same structure code as sister building Sondos Lily, consistent with an independent property portal describing Sondos Rosa as a completed 9-storey building. Unit-count sources differ slightly: the developer's own site lists 28 studio, 42 one-bedroom and 32 two-bedroom apartments plus 1 retail unit (103 total), while an independent portal states a total of 105 residential units; this guide uses the developer's own itemised breakdown as the more detailed source. According to the Land Department, the project was valued at approximately AED 69,400,000 at the pre-construction estimate stage submitted by the developer.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
DubaiLand Residence Complex is not currently one of Royale Stays' five core managed areas (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay), so this guide does not claim a Royale Stays management track record at Sondos Rosa specifically. Al Sondos Holding is a private local developer rather than a restricted hotel brand, so there is no confirmed policy barrier to running a licensed holiday home in the building.
Every short-term rental in Dubai requires a DTCM holiday home permit. Royale Stays can arrange the permit application and manage the day-to-day operation, including for owners based overseas, for a fee starting from 15%, covering furnishing, photography, pricing, check-in and guest communications. See Royale Stays' Dubai holiday home permit guide for the current permit process.
