GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions about DAMAC Islands.

When is handover?+

Phase 1: 2027–2028. DAMAC Islands 2: June 2030.

What is the entry price?+

4BR townhouse: from AED 2.99M. 4BR villa: from AED 4.85M. 5BR villa: from AED 6.25M.

What is the character of DAMAC Islands?+

It is a new themed waterfront community by DAMAC in Dubailand, built around six island-inspired sub-communities — Antigua, Mauritius, Maldives, Hawaii, Seychelles and Bali — each with its own themed beaches, restaurants, spas and sports courts. The product is large-format family living: 4BR townhouses and 4-5BR villas, all freehold and currently off-plan.

Since it is off-plan, what payment terms apply?+

DAMAC offers flexible, interest-free developer payment plans on its off-plan units, typically with instalments through construction and a balance at handover. Buyer funds are protected in RERA escrow accounts until milestones are met. Phase 1 handover runs 2027-2028 and DAMAC Islands 2 is due June 2030, giving investors a 4-6 year horizon.

How is the location and connectivity?+

DAMAC Islands sits directly beside the E311 (Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road), with Expo City about 15 minutes away, DWC Airport roughly 20, and Dubai Marina around 25. There is no active metro serving the community, so it is car-oriented — typical for a new master-planned villa destination on Dubai's growth corridor.

Do these homes qualify for a Golden Visa, and what about tax?+

Yes — every property here starts well above the AED 2 million threshold for the 10-year Golden Visa, so a 4BR townhouse from AED 2.99M or a villa from AED 4.85M qualifies. Dubai charges no annual property tax; the principal one-time cost is the 4% DLD transfer fee at registration. Confirm current visa rules before purchase.
