Mukesh Ambani Gifts Luxurious Beachfront Villa to Son and Daughter-in-Law After Lavish Wedding Celebrations
Mukesh Ambani, India’s richest individual and recently ranked ninth on the Forbes Billionaires List, is widely admired for his opulent lifestyle. Following the grand wedding celebrations of his youngest son, Anant Ambani, the Ambani family reportedly spent a staggering INR 5,000 crore on the festivities. As a gesture of love, Mukesh Ambani presented his son and daughter-in-law, Radhika Merchant, with a magnificent beachfront villa in Dubai.
Situated in the prestigious Palm Jumeirah area, this exceptional property spans an impressive 26,033 square feet. It boasts 10 spacious bedrooms, a private spa, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, and a 70-metre-long private beach. The villa’s interiors are adorned with luxurious Italian marble, a fully equipped bar, a salon, bespoke sculptures, and advanced lighting systems. With its unparalleled architectural design and breathtaking views resembling an archipelago, this property stands as a symbol of ultimate luxury.
Notably, this isn’t the Ambani family’s first high-profile purchase in Dubai. Two years ago, Mukesh Ambani made headlines by acquiring another villa in the same area for USD 80 million (approximately INR 680 crore), marking the second-largest residential real estate transaction in the city’s history. The recent villa acquisition, reportedly facilitated by Conor McKay of Belleview Real Estate, is said to be Dubai’s largest residential property deal to date. While the villa’s previous owner’s identity was initially undisclosed, it has since been revealed that the Ambani family are the new owners.
Palm Jumeirah, a hotspot for luxury real estate, is known for its elite residents. The Ambani family’s new neighbours include Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan and international sports legends David Beckham and Michel Salgado. The villa is intended as a vacation retreat, offering the family an oasis of privacy and indulgence without having to leave the premises.
In addition to this latest acquisition, Mukesh Ambani owns an extensive real estate portfolio, including ‘Antilia’ in Mumbai—India’s most expensive residence and the world’s second most valuable private home, with an estimated worth of INR 15,000 crore.
This newly gifted Dubai villa not only enriches the Ambani family’s collection of premium properties but also solidifies their presence in one of the world’s most luxurious destinations. With its exclusive location, state-of-the-art amenities, and unmatched grandeur, the property exemplifies the family’s penchant for living at the pinnacle of luxury. Whether in Mumbai or Dubai, the Ambanis continue to set new benchmarks in lavish living, further cementing their reputation as one of the world’s most influential families.
