Calisi by Zoya

Calisi by Zoya is a project you choose for its payment plan: 58% of the price is paid before handover, and the other 42% is spread over five years after you move in. Behind that plan stands a building of 68 fully furnished studios and two-bedroom apartments in Dubai South, close to Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City Dubai, developed by Zoya Developments, with an expected handover in Q3 2027.

Calisi by Zoya floor plans: 32 studios and 36 two-bedroom homes

Two home types, both sold with the furniture in place:

• Studios: 32 homes, 400 to 427 sq ft
• Two-bedroom apartments: 36 homes, 718 to 1,250 sq ft

The two-bedroom range is wide: a 718 sq ft plan and a 1,250 sq ft plan share a label, yet they are very different homes to live in, so you can choose the size that fits your family. Studios sit in a much tighter band and suit one person or a rental. The design is a low-rise building with curved balconies and a roof terrace.

Ask us for the plans of the available two-bedroom units side by side, with the balcony area shown.

Interiors and shared facilities at Calisi

Inside, the layouts are open-plan and bring in natural light, with textures inspired by the desert dunes. The materials are walnut wood, brown marble and soft fabrics in sand and olive tones. Our guide to furnished off-plan handovers explains what comes with a furnished home at handover.

Zoya splits the shared spaces into active and quiet areas. The active side has an adults' pool, a separate children's pool on the roof, an indoor gym, a children's play area and a barbecue area. The quiet side gives you yoga and relaxation areas, outdoor seating, a lounge and landscaped open spaces. Parking is indoors, and entry to the building is controlled with security systems. If you have young children, the second pool and the play area make a real difference.

Location: Calisi in Dubai South, between Expo Road and Emirates Road

Calisi stands in Dubai South with Expo Road, Emirates Road (E611) and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) around the site. Drive times:

• Lulu Hypermarket Dubai South: 2 minutes
• Etihad Rail network and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road: 5 minutes each
• Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) and Expo City Dubai: 10 minutes each
• Global Village and IMG Worlds of Adventure: 15 minutes each

• Yas Island, Abu Dhabi: 45 minutes

The rail link and the road to Abu Dhabi make Calisi practical if your week takes you to both cities. Groceries are two minutes away. Our Dubai South area guide goes deeper into schools, transport and daily life across the district.

The Calisi payment plan: 58% before the keys, 42% after

Here is how Zoya's plan runs. You pay 20% on booking, then 1% a month for 18 months, which adds 18%. Another 10% falls due after one year and 10% on handover, which brings you to 58%. The last 42% is paid after handover at 0.70% a month for 60 months. The expected handover is Q3 2027.

In practice, you hold the keys and can live in the apartment or let it while you are still paying the developer for five years, so you do not tie up most of the price before completion. Our guide to post-handover payment plans explains how this kind of plan works.

Why buy at Calisi by Zoya: for living and for investment

For living, Calisi gives a small family a furnished two-bedroom home with a children's pool and play area downstairs, a roof terrace and a gym, two minutes from Lulu Hypermarket and 10 minutes from Expo City Dubai. If your week takes you to Abu Dhabi as well, Emirates Road and the Etihad Rail network are close by.

For investment, a furnished studio can be let from the day you get the keys while the post-handover instalments are still running, so the rent helps cover the plan. Dubai South is growing around Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City Dubai. Miorah, Zoya's first building in Dubai South, offers the same two home types; for more apartments in Dubai South, see SAMANA South Haven and Waada by BT Properties, and Zoya's larger furnished project, Nuvé by Zoya, in Dubai Land Residence Complex.
