They will be operated by Candace Hotel and Resorts, which is registered in the UK and the UAE, in which Azizi is an investor.  There are more than 29,000 hotel apartments and serviced apartments in Dubai, and only 36 per cent of the supply is internationally branded, according to the research firm Colliers International.&#013;<br \/>\nThe average occupancy at serviced apartments was about 80 per last year, up from 79 per cent in the previous year. The average daily rate last year was about Dh430, down from Dh459.&#8221;Because of a high number of unbranded properties in Dubai, standardisation is lacking within serviced apartments, as opposed to hotels in the city,&#8221; said Filippo Sona, the head of hotels for the Middle East and North Africa region at Colliers.&#013;<br \/>\nThe developer has also lined up serviced apartment projects worth Dh1.8 billion in Dubai Healthcare City, Palm Jumeirah and more in Al Furjan. The group plans to launch more than 2,000 serviced apartments in these areas by the end of this year, which will be managed by Candace.&#8221;The number of tourists coming to Dubai has been increasing drastically and hotels are pretty occupied,&#8221; said Farhad Azizi, the chief executive and vice chairman of Azizi Developments.&#013;<br \/>\nAzizi also plans to enter the holiday home segment.Most of the investors at Candace at Al Furjan include those from the Arabian Gulf region, India and Pakistan, with 70 per cent of them cash buyers, he said.At Candace at Al Furjan, the company is expecting a 10 to 12 per cent return on investment from 2017. The serviced apartments will be positioned in the &#8220;superior&#8221; category, which is between the standard and deluxe categories in the serviced apartments segment.&#013;<br \/>\nUsers and investors can rent out their property or avail services of Candace Hotel and Resorts to manage it for them.Azizi has sold 80 per cent of the residences at one of the two towers in the project, and 25 per cent in the other, according to Mr Azizi. The two towers have 543 units.The studios at Candace start at Dh433,000 and the prices can go up to Dh1.2m for a two-bedroom apartment.Azizi expects to deliver eight other residential projects at Al Furjan this year.&#013;<br \/>\nssahoo@thenational.aeFollow The National&#8217;s Business section on Twitter&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : thenational.ae&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thenational.ae\/business\/property\/azizi-launches-its-first-serviced-apartment-project-in-dubai\" target=\"_blank\">Azizi launches its first serviced apartment project in Dubai<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; &#013; Azizi Developments is opening its first serviced apartment project in Dubai.The Dh460-million Candace project&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10882","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-2Pw","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":34156,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/azizi-launches-new-serviced-apartment-project-in-dubais-al-furjan\/","url_meta":{"origin":10882,"position":0},"title":"Azizi launches new serviced apartment project in Dubai\u2019s Al Furjan","date":"November 12, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Serviced residence tower will have 284 apartments and is scheduled for completion in 2018\r \r Source : arabianbusiness.com\r Read more...Azizi launches new serviced apartment project in Dubai\u2019s Al Furjan","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":89772,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/uaes-azizi-says-dubai-healthcare-city-project-progressing-rapidly\/","url_meta":{"origin":10882,"position":1},"title":"UAE&#039;s Azizi says Dubai Healthcare City project &#039;progressing rapidly&#039;","date":"May 28, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Azizi Aliyah Residences development will offer a total of 346 fully serviced residences\r \r Source : arabianbusiness.com\r Read more...UAE's Azizi says Dubai Healthcare City project 'progressing rapidly'","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":5874,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/azizi-says-dubai-property-to-recover-fast-as-it-launches-palm-jumeirah-project\/","url_meta":{"origin":10882,"position":2},"title":"Azizi says Dubai property to recover fast as it launches Palm Jumeirah project","date":"February 25, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r \r Afghan developer Azizi Developments has become the latest in a string of property companies to launch new off plan luxury apartments in Dubai.Marketing a block of 90 partly-built apartments on Palm Jumeirah with a press conference and marketing shindig aboard a yacht sailing from Dubai Marina, Azizi attempted\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":52742,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/dubai-developer-azizi-presses-on-with-off-plan-property-launches\/","url_meta":{"origin":10882,"position":3},"title":"Dubai developer Azizi presses on with off-plan property launches","date":"April 24, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Azizi Developments is pressing ahead with scores of new towers across Dubai despite the weak residential property market.The company's chief executive, Farhad Azizi, told The National that he expects between Dh8 billion and Dh10bn worth of new projects to get under way this year, including two-tower schemes at Dubai\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Property News&quot;","img":{"alt_text":"","src":"","width":0,"height":0},"classes":[]},{"id":37000,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/dubai-developer-deyaar-looks-to-pull-in-buyers-with-offer-of-guaranteed-returns\/","url_meta":{"origin":10882,"position":4},"title":"Dubai developer Deyaar looks to pull in buyers with offer of guaranteed returns","date":"December 5, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Dubai-based developer Deyaar has guaranteed annual returns of 7 per cent over two years to investors on one of its Dubai projects.
