DAMAC Loreto in DAMAC Hills, Dubai

Loreto is a completed apartment complex by DAMAC Properties in DAMAC Hills, Dubai. DAMAC calls it "Residences on the Park", and the buildings do face the community park, with its lawns, a pond and the sports grounds right in front. There are three residential buildings. Each has a ground floor, two podium levels and seven residential floors, and the architecture is contemporary: large areas of glass, volumes that step from level to level, and open terraces along the facades.

The residences

The homes on sale at Loreto are studios of about 580 to 641 sq ft. Inside, the style follows the architecture, with a light colour palette, clean lines and large windows that let in a lot of daylight. Because Loreto is already built, a buyer can walk through the actual apartment and look out of its windows before deciding, then move in soon after the purchase.

Amenities

DAMAC's brochure for Loreto gives a long list of sports facilities: tennis and volleyball courts, a fitness centre and jogging tracks, a football field with cricket practice nets, a 5-hole practice golf course, a large lagoon pool and a skate park. The community centre has space for yoga and Pilates, a gym and a kids' play area, and there is a separate area for hosting events and parties. The park itself is laid out in themed areas. For everyday life, DAMAC Hills has a Carrefour Market, a health clinic and an international school, and Jebel Ali School is a few minutes away inside the community.
