Bahamas by Damac: 5-Bedroom Townhouses from AED 3.9M in DAMAC Islands
Damac Properties launched Bahamas in May 2026 as part of the DAMAC Islands master community in Dubai. The project covers apartments, townhouses, and villas across a gated community setting. Construction broke ground in May 2026, with handover targeted for June 2030.
DAMAC Islands: Choosing Space Over Urban Access
DAMAC Islands sits in the southern stretch of Dubai, within the Dubai Investment Park corridor. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road provides the main connection to the wider city. Business Bay and Downtown Dubai are roughly 30 minutes north by car. Al Maktoum International Airport runs in the opposite direction, typically 15 to 20 minutes under normal traffic.
This is not an inner-city address. Daily life here depends on private transport and what the development itself provides. Buyers choosing this location are prioritizing master-plan scale, unit size, and a community environment over proximity to Dubai's commercial core. The trade-off is clearly telegraphed by the address.
What the Narrow Price Band Means
The project runs from AED 3,913,000 to AED 4,143,000, a spread of just AED 230,000. Both price points land on 5-bedroom units at 3,158 sq ft.
5-bedroom townhouses in three layout variants (Types 01, 04, and 08) start at AED 3,913,000, or roughly AED 1,239 per sq ft. The 5-bedroom apartment at the same footprint opens at AED 4,143,000. The AED 230,000 gap reflects property type, not size. A buyer deciding between the floor and ceiling is choosing between a townhouse and an apartment at the same square footage and bedroom count.
Three Property Types, Four Bedroom Counts
Bahamas spans apartments, townhouses, and villas. The 5-bedroom townhouse at 3,158 sq ft is the core product: three layout configurations, all starting at AED 3.9M. A 4-bedroom townhouse addresses buyers who want the townhouse format with one fewer bedroom. 6-bedroom villas serve larger households at the top of the range.
The 5-bedroom apartment occupies the same footprint and bedroom count as the top-tier townhouses but offers an apartment tenure type. For buyers who prefer that structure in a community built primarily around landed properties, this is the option.
Indoor Pool, Restaurants, and a Playground: What Seven Amenities Add Up To
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Outdoor and Leisure | Landscaped Gardens, Barbecue Area, Children's Play Area, Restaurants |
| Fitness and Wellness | Gymnasium, Indoor Swimming Pool |
| Security | CCTV Security |
The indoor swimming pool is the most practical differentiator in this list. An indoor facility provides year-round usability through Dubai's summer months. The on-site restaurants reduce daily dependence on driving for casual dining, which matters for residents whose nearest commercial cluster requires a car trip.
The amenity set points clearly at families with children. A playground, landscaped gardens, a pool, a gym, and dining coverage address daily resident needs without overbuilding the list.
Four Years Off-Plan: The June 2030 Handover
Construction began in May 2026. Completion is targeted for June 2030, roughly four years from launch. Both the booking date and the construction start fall in the same month, so the project is at the earliest stage of its build program. For a buyer entering now, handover is a full off-plan cycle away.
The payment schedule distributes the cost across that build period. The 55% construction installment runs over four years of build time rather than landing upfront.
Getting In on 20%: How the Payments Fall
| Stage | Share |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 55% |
| Handover | 25% |
A 20% down payment opens the position. The 55% construction installment is the bulk of the purchase price, spread across four years of build time. The 25% at handover is the final payment, due in June 2030 when keys are collected.
