The project
About Laya Courtyard
Laya Courtyard was unveiled in April 2025 as the fourth project from Laya Developers, which has already completed Laya Heights in the same community.
The design is organised around a central landscaped courtyard, with studios and one-bedroom apartments looking over a pool, lounges and green zones.
Amenities include a padel court, rooftop sky deck, fitness centre, yoga areas and a clubhouse. Gulf News reported a starting price of AED 699,000 and a post-handover plan on one-bedroom homes.
