Damac Harbour Lights, Maritime City: Apartments from AED 1.45M
Damac Properties is developing Harbour Lights in Dubai Maritime City. Construction started in April 2024, with handover targeted for June 2027. The project is apartments only, priced from AED 1,450,000 to AED 3,290,270.
A Waterfront Address Near Port Rashid
Dubai Maritime City is a reclaimed peninsula near Port Rashid. It sits between the historic Dry Docks district and the Dubai Creek corridor. Port Rashid, one of Dubai's active cruise terminals, is adjacent and contributes to the waterfront character of the wider area. By road: roughly 10 minutes from Business Bay, about 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport, and around 20 minutes from Dubai Marina. Access to main arterials connecting to Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road is direct.
The waterfront is the defining quality of the address. Units with sea-facing orientations deliver open water views that most Dubai addresses at this price level cannot match. Maritime City is building out its residential side, and the area is less developed than established districts like Jumeirah or Business Bay. The seafront character gives it a distinct identity from Dubai's inland residential districts, and the price reflects the area's stage of development.
What AED 1.45M to AED 3.29M Covers
The price band spans nearly AED 1.85 million from bottom to top. That range in a single building reflects real variation in unit size and floor position, not just interior finish level. The spread is wide enough to suggest multiple bedroom configurations and view tiers within the development.
At AED 1,450,000, you are at the entry level: a compact layout, most likely a one-bedroom on a standard floor. At AED 3,290,270, you are looking at a larger unit, probably a two-bedroom, in a higher or sea-facing position within the building. The two ends of the range are different products in the same development. Unit type and floor position drive the price difference.
Apartments Only
Harbour Lights is a residential apartment building. The single-type structure makes it a direct option for investors focused on residential yield or buyers looking specifically for apartment living.
What the Amenities Tell You
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Fitness | Gymnasium |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Leisure | Shared Pool, Children's Pool |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Safety | Security |
Six amenities across five categories. The dual pool setup, one shared and one for children, paired with a dedicated play area, points clearly to families with young children as a core occupier profile. This is not a building oriented primarily toward young professionals or single investors. The on-site restaurant provides daily food access within the development, and the gym covers the fitness baseline. The amenity set is compact but practical.
One Year to Handover
Construction began in April 2024. Handover is targeted for June 2027, a total construction span of 38 months. With roughly 12 months remaining, the project has passed its two-thirds mark. Buyers entering at this stage step into the final construction phase rather than an early-stage ground-up build.
Getting In for 20%
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 50% |
| At handover | 30% |
The 20% down payment is standard for Dubai off-plan. On the entry price of AED 1,450,000, that means AED 290,000 at signing. At the top of the range, AED 3,290,270, the 20% commitment rises to just over AED 658,000. The unit selected sets the opening cash figure.
After the down payment, 50% is paid in staged instalments during construction. The final 30% is due at handover. All payments are settled at the point of key collection, with no post-handover schedule extending beyond that date.
