The premium residential villas, overlooking Wadi Hanifa, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, invite in the panoramic views of Wadi Hanifa to blend with the Roberto Cavalli interiors, inspired by wildlife and nature.

Strategically located on King Khalid Road, the iconic Shams Ar Riyadh is the first of its kind in Saudi Arabia, designed as a world-class “city within a city”. The project comprises of residential, commercial, and mixed-use spaces, overlooking Wadi Hanifa, gardens, parks and walkways. It will also feature vibrant retail centres, international restaurants and cafés, children’s play areas, schools, clinics, government offices and mosques.

Chairman of Dar Al Arkan, Yousef Bin Abdullah Al Shelash said, “Mirabilia’s new blueprint will set the tone for this amazing region in the capital, Riyadh. I am particularly delighted with our partnership with the Roberto Cavalli Group, which encapsulates the true meaning of high-end luxury and is an embodiment of beauty, design and artistry.”

CEO of Roberto Cavalli Group, Gian Giacomo Ferraris, who flew to Riyadh especially for the launch, commented, “We are thrilled to be entering for the first time as a group to the real estate sector in Saudi Arabia through such a futuristic project that personifies modern extravagance.”
