About Roy Mediterranean
Roy Mediterranean Serviced Apartments is a 10-storey residential building in Al Furjan, Jebel Ali First, Dubai, developed by Azizi Developments. Construction began in May 2016 and was completed by March 2018, in line with the original registered timeline.
The architectural consultant was CVTEC Consulting Engineers, and the main building work was carried out by Al Kaitoob Building Contracting. According to Dubai Land Department records, the project was valued at approximately AED 61,400,000 (around USD 16.7 million) at the pre-construction estimate stage, an early developer figure that may differ from the final build cost. Roy Mediterranean is a separate, standalone building from Royale Stays' other Al Furjan guides, including the many Azizi-developed buildings in the same wider Al Furjan portfolio (Azizi Amber, Azizi Farishta, Azizi Feirouz, Azizi Freesia, Azizi Iris, Azizi Liatris, Azizi Orchid, Azizi Plaza, Azizi Shaista, Azizi Star, Azizi Tulip, Azizi Yasamine and Berton by Azizi), each a distinct completed building.

Unit Types at Roy Mediterranean
Roy Mediterranean contains 271 residential units: 224 studios and 47 one-bedroom apartments. Studios average around 410 sq ft and one-bedroom apartments average around 818 sq ft. The building's total registered project scope runs to 273 units once 2 ground-floor retail shops are included alongside the 271 residential units. On Dubai Land Department records, units at Roy Mediterranean are registered under the property sub-type 'Hotel Apartment,' and the project is listed as 'Roy Mediterranean Hotel Apartments', a serviced-apartment registration category, not a commercial office classification.
Unit mix and total per dxboffplan.com's Building Details records (Studio 224, 1 B/R 47, plus 2 Shop units, totalling 273 registered units), which sum (224 + 47 = 271) to propsearch.ae's headline total of 271 residential units. Average unit sizes (studio around 410 sq ft, one-bedroom around 818 sq ft) per propsearch.ae. The Hotel Apartment DLD classification appears in propsearch.ae's transaction feed (every sampled transaction tagged Property Sub-type Hotel Apartment, Property Use Other), and dxboffplan.com describes the building as offering 'studio and one-bedroom serviced apartments' under a details section titled 'Roy Mediterranean Hotel Apartments.'

Amenities per propsearch.ae's Roy Mediterranean building guide (landscaped gardens, gym, pool, children's pool, spa, restaurants, cafe, prayer rooms, room service, laundry, valet parking); the developer's dxboffplan.com project page lists the pool, gym, valet parking and cafe.
Transportation & Access
Roy Mediterranean sits on a road with a new Metro Line and nearby stations, with easy access to Sheikh Zayed Road and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, according to the developer's own materials, which also place Ibn Battuta Mall around 5 minutes away by car. Separately, propsearch.ae's own drive-time estimates put Dubai Mall at roughly 26 minutes, Palm Jumeirah at roughly 18 minutes, Burj Al Arab at roughly 23 minutes, The Walk JBR at roughly 18 minutes, and Dubai International Airport (DXB) at roughly 34 minutes.
Metro-line proximity and road access sourced from the developer's own dxboffplan.com project page. Drive times to Dubai Mall, Palm Jumeirah, Burj Al Arab, The Walk JBR and Dubai International Airport sourced from propsearch.ae's Roy Mediterranean building guide (Google Maps-calculated, typical traffic). Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) drive time is deliberately omitted here: propsearch.ae states roughly 30 minutes for this route while the developer's own page states 10 minutes, a large, unreconciled conflict with no third source available, so this specific figure is not asserted here.
Roy Mediterranean Price Guide
Recent Dubai Land Department sale transactions recorded via propsearch.ae show studio units (327 to 412 sq ft) at Roy Mediterranean selling for roughly AED 485,000 to AED 550,000 between June and August 2026. A 768 sq ft one-bedroom unit sold for exactly AED 750,000 on 26 August 2026 (AED 977 per sq ft), a Sale-type record. Propsearch.ae records 50 sale transaction records for the building overall.
Sale transaction prices, sizes and dates per Dubai Land Department records published via propsearch.ae's Roy Mediterranean building guide. Every price cited here comes from a record whose Transaction Type field reads 'Sale' or 'Delayed Sale'.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Al Furjan 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 Roy Mediterranean specifically. Roy Mediterranean's units are registered on Dubai Land Department records as hotel apartments, a serviced-apartment classification rather than a standalone hotel brand; the confirmed developer is Azizi Developments, not Vida Hotels and Resorts (the only management company confirmed to prohibit short-term letting outright). Royale Stays cannot apply for a DTCM holiday-home permit directly as an outside operator in a hotel-branded or serviced-apartment building, but the building's own management company can arrange the permit once Royale Stays reaches out directly, so Roy Mediterranean remains a normal, viable building for STR framing.
Every short-term rental in Dubai requires a DTCM holiday home permit. Royale Stays can arrange the permit application through the building's management company 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, or the full guide to Airbnb property management in Dubai for how the service works end to end.
