About The Project
Damac Islands is a new master community by DAMAC Properties, planned as a water-centric residential destination in Dubailand with a premium mix of four and five bedroom townhouses and six and seven bedroom villas. The concept is deliberately escapist, built around the feeling of living beside lagoons, beaches, and tropical landscaping, while still staying rooted in Dubai’s everyday convenience. Positioned adjacent to Sun City, the development is designed to feel like a complete lifestyle environment rather than a simple collection of homes, with a strong emphasis on waterfront views, outdoor living, and resort-style movement through the community.
The masterplan is organised into six themed clusters, each inspired by well-known island destinations, Maldives, Bora Bora, Seychelles, Hawaii, Fiji, and Bali. The point is not novelty for novelty’s sake, it is variety. Different streets and pockets are meant to feel slightly different in tone, planting, and atmosphere, so that the community has a layered identity rather than one repeated look. In practical terms, this cluster approach also helps buyers match a home to the lifestyle they want, whether that is calmer, more private zones or more social, amenity-led areas.
Maldives is framed as the most elevated expression, with homes planned across multiple floors and features that push into true statement territory, private lifts, home cinema set-ups, personal spa zones, driver accommodation, and private pools with larger terraces. Bora Bora leans into the active waterfront idea, with beachfront energy, water features, social spaces, and leisure moments built around lagoons and outdoor life. Seychelles is positioned as refined tropical elegance, mixing contemporary design with greener landscaping and wellness-led spaces, while Hawaii focuses on tranquillity, gardens, white sand-style edges, and a slower rhythm supported by dining and spa-style facilities. Fiji is presented as the quieter contemplation cluster, blending greenery and water promenades for a calmer pace, while Bali is the nature-focused sanctuary, designed around lush planting, gentle water elements, and a serene, resort-like mood.
Across the wider development, the promise is a daily life shaped by water and open space. You wake up to lagoon views, move through streets softened by tropical landscaping, and spend evenings in outdoor settings that feel more like a coastal break than a typical Dubai suburb. It is the kind of community that is meant to change your routine slightly, more morning walks, more time outdoors, more casual socialising, and less reliance on driving out just to feel a shift in atmosphere.
From a buying perspective, the project is marketed with a starting price from AED 2.25 million, a 75/25 payment plan, and a Q4 2028 handover timeline. Unit sizes are listed across a wide range, from approximately 2,208 to 17,079 square feet, reflecting the breadth from townhouses through to large villas. That spread signals a community built for families and multi-generational living, with enough scale for proper entertaining zones, private quarters, and outdoor space that feels usable rather than decorative.
For buyers comparing large-format homes in Dubailand, Damac Islands is positioned around one clear idea, waterfront living that feels immersive, not just visual. Four and five bedroom townhouses are likely to appeal to families who want space, community energy, and a strong lifestyle theme without stepping immediately into the scale and maintenance of a very large villa. Six and seven bedroom villas will suit buyers who want privacy, bigger entertaining zones, and homes that can carry long stays, guests, staff support, and multi-use rooms that adapt over time.
The reason this project matters is differentiation. In a market where many villa communities compete on similar claims, Damac Islands leans heavily into a water-led identity with themed clusters, lagoon edges, and a resort-driven atmosphere. If the masterplan delivers the right balance of calm streets, usable waterfront spaces, and daily convenience, the community has the potential to become a destination address within Dubailand, not just another new launch. It is designed to attract both end users who want a lifestyle shift and investors who understand that themed, amenity-rich masterplans can hold demand when they feel genuinely liveable.

About Community
Dubailand has become one of Dubai’s most active growth corridors, known for large-scale master communities, broader roads, and neighbourhood planning that gives residents more breathing room than many central districts. The area appeals strongly to families and long-stay residents because it is typically built around space, schools, parks, and everyday practicality, rather than purely skyline proximity. That does not mean it feels remote. It means the pace is different, less compressed, with more room for landscaped buffers, community facilities, and the kind of outdoor routines that are harder to build into denser zones.
One of the biggest lifestyle advantages in Dubailand is how communities are often designed to be self-contained. Residents tend to choose this side of Dubai when they want daily life to feel smoother, with nearby retail, leisure, and family amenities reducing the need to cross the city for every small task. Over time, as more communities mature, the district develops a stronger sense of identity, shifting from a collection of projects into a connected residential landscape with established services, dining options, gyms, and community-led recreation.
Connectivity is also a key reason Dubailand continues to attract new demand. The district is positioned to link into major road networks that carry residents toward central business zones and key lifestyle destinations, while still allowing them to return home to a calmer environment. This balance supports both end users and investors. End users value the quieter tempo, the larger home sizes, and the outdoor-friendly planning. Investors often value the steady family tenant profile, longer lease cycles, and the enduring demand for bigger homes at more accessible price points than the most central addresses.
Damac Islands fits into this wider context by introducing a more destination-led waterfront concept inside a district traditionally known for land-based villa communities. The idea of lagoons, beaches, and island-themed clusters brings a new type of lifestyle offering into Dubailand, which could appeal to buyers who love the space and value proposition of the area but want a more resort-like atmosphere without shifting to the far coastline. If delivered well, that combination, space, family living, and immersive water-led planning, can help a community stand out and remain desirable as Dubailand continues to expand.

Common Questions
The Developer
DAMAC Properties is a privately owned Dubai real estate developer founded in 2002 by Emirati entrepreneur Hussain Sajwani. The company entered the property market during the early expansion of freehold ownership in Dubai and has since grown into one of the city's largest private development businesses, with activity spanning apartments, villas, master communities, hospitality and branded residences.
Hussain Sajwani remains Founder and Chairman. The company forms part of the wider DAMAC Group, while Ali Sajwani and Amira Sajwani hold senior managing director roles across different areas of the business. DAMAC was previously listed on the Dubai Financial Market before returning to private ownership in 2022.
Its early growth was associated with residential towers in locations such as Dubai Marina and Business Bay. Completed buildings including Marina Terrace and Ocean Heights helped establish the company in Dubai's apartment market before it moved into considerably larger master planned communities.
DAMAC Hills marked an important evolution. The community combines villas, townhouses and apartments with Trump International Golf Club Dubai, schools, retail and extensive leisure facilities. It established DAMAC as a master developer capable of creating an entire residential destination rather than simply constructing individual buildings.
DAMAC Hills 2 extended this strategy into a more suburban setting, with family neighbourhoods organised around parks, sports facilities and outdoor recreation. DAMAC Lagoons subsequently introduced a Mediterranean inspired concept built around water, landscaped public spaces and themed residential clusters.
More recent DAMAC Properties projects in Dubai continue this shift towards large lifestyle destinations. DAMAC Riverside, DAMAC Islands and DAMAC Islands 2 all place water, landscaping and leisure at the centre of the residential experience while offering a mixture of villas and townhouses.
The company's approach to branded residences has developed in parallel. Roberto Cavalli has been involved across several DAMAC schemes, while other collaborations have included de GRISOGONO and international hospitality brands. These companies provide branding, design identity or hospitality expertise, while DAMAC remains responsible for property development.
Dubai continues to be the company's principal market, although DAMAC has also developed internationally, including projects in London and other Middle Eastern markets. More recently, DAMAC Hills Baghdad extended the company's master community model into Iraq.
Today, DAMAC Properties Dubai operates across several residential segments, from established family homes and investment apartments to branded waterfront residences and new off plan master communities. CHENORA ESTATES provides a dedicated DAMAC Properties developer page covering its current residential opportunities.
DAMAC Hills remains one of the company's most established communities. Much of the master plan is complete and occupied, although newer residential and commercial additions continue to expand the destination. DAMAC District Residences is one such addition, introducing apartments alongside commercial space within the wider DAMAC Hills setting.
DAMAC Lagoons represents another important part of the company's recent growth. The master community is organised around Mediterranean inspired neighbourhoods including Santorini, Morocco, Venice and other themed clusters.
DAMAC Islands was launched in 2024 as another large master planned community in Dubailand. Its concept is inspired by tropical island destinations and includes villas and townhouses arranged around lagoons, greenery and leisure facilities.
DAMAC Islands 2 followed as a separate expansion rather than simply another phase carrying the same identity. The community introduces additional island inspired districts and gives the company another substantial long term residential pipeline within the Dubai market.
DAMAC Riverside adopts a similar lifestyle led approach but with a different residential character. Villas and townhouses are arranged around landscaped spaces and water features, while Riverside Views extends the wider concept into apartments.
The company also remains active in the luxury tower market. Chelsea Residences by DAMAC at Dubai Maritime City represents one of its most distinctive recent collaborations. DAMAC is the property developer, while Chelsea Football Club provides the branding and identity associated with the residences.
The development contains more than 1,400 waterfront apartments across six towers and is planned for completion towards the end of the decade. Its launch demonstrates how DAMAC continues to combine large residential scale with internationally recognised branding.
At the more exclusive end of the market, Cavalli Couture at Dubai Water Canal offers a considerably smaller collection of large residences with interiors influenced by Roberto Cavalli. DAMAC remains the developer, while Cavalli contributes the fashion and interior design identity.
DAMAC Bay by Cavalli and Safa Gate further extend the company's presence within premium waterfront and central Dubai locations. These projects sit alongside its larger villa communities rather than replacing them, giving DAMAC a broad residential offering across several price and property segments.
DAMAC Properties off plan projects therefore range from apartments and branded residences to large villa and townhouse communities.
