DAMAC Islands, Dubailand: what is published

Launched 19 November 2024: the one community here with a starting price and a payment plan published by the developer, each dated, and the handover and escrow lines that are not published.

Daily life

Six clusters, one launch date

Launched on 19 November 2024 at the Coca-Cola Arena, sold since, and registered with the Land Department as two projects of a phase called The Tropics.

The register's zone is Al Yelayiss 1. Dubailand is the name DAMAC uses and the name a buyer will recognise, but any comparison you want to make against the Land Department's own transaction data has to be made on Al Yelayiss, or the query comes back empty.

DAMAC's own blog places this community at Dubai Islands and describes access to the sea. Dubai Islands is a different district on the coast. The mistake is in the developer's material and it is not repeated here: nothing on this page describes a beach.

  • Registered, first phase2DLD

    Both active in the Land Department's register, in the Al Yelayiss 1 zone. The register calls the first phase The Tropics; the island names are marketing, and no automatic match by name will join the two.

  • Registered, DAMAC Islands 210DLD

    A separate second phase under a different legal entity. It is not the community on this page, and the two are easy to confuse in a search.

What it costs to be here

A published price and a published plan, each with its date

Both lines come from DAMAC and both carry the day they were read. The price on the developer's page today is not the price in the launch release, and twenty-two months separate them, which is why neither is given without a date.

One warning about any price you have already seen. Checked on 12 September 2026, DAMAC's cards printed the identical number under a dollar, a euro and a pound sign, and the number is in dirhams. Every conversion shown on this site is ours, made from the dirham.

Name a format and we send what is actually asked for it today, with the date and the source of each figure, and the payment schedule as the developer states it.

  • FromAED 2.75MDAMAC

    DAMAC's own starting price, read on 12 September 2026 and marked by DAMAC as subject to availability. It is in dirhams: on the same day the same figure appeared on its cards under a dollar, a euro and a pound sign.

    The four-bedroom townhouse in the release of 20 November 2024. Twenty-two months separate the two lines above; they are two dated figures, not one price.

The clusters, and one record with an exact wording

Six island clusters as the launch release names them: Maldives, Bora Bora, Seychelles, Hawaii, Bali and Fiji. DAMAC holds a Guinness World Records title for the highest revenue generated by a real estate launch in 24 hours, AED 10.23bnDAMAC; the title belongs to Phase 1 of this community and to nothing else. DAMAC says its second phase later passed that figure, which is the company's own comparison and not a second title.
