Bay Villas: Townhouses and Villas on Dubai Islands from AED 4M to AED 13.8M
Bay Villas is a Nakheel development on Dubai Islands, offering 3- to 5-bedroom townhouses and villas. Construction began in July 2024, with completion targeted for June 2027.
What Dubai Islands Means for Daily Life
Dubai Islands sits off the Deira coast, north of the city centre. It is one of Dubai's newer coastal districts, providing a waterfront address without the density of more established communities to the south. Reaching Downtown Dubai takes roughly 25 to 30 minutes by car. Dubai International Airport is closer, typically under 20 minutes. For buyers who use the airport frequently or work in the Deira area, the position works well.
The location suits families who want space and a waterfront setting while staying connected to the city. The sea-adjacent address gives this project a distinct character compared to inland villa communities.
A Range That Runs from AED 4M to AED 13.8M
The price spread is wide: AED 4,000,000 at the low end and AED 13,800,000 at the top. That range reflects the product mix rather than inconsistency in pricing.
At the lower end, 3-bedroom townhouses start from around AED 4M. These are G+1 layouts, generally between 3,400 and 3,600 sq ft. For a buyer entering the villa-community segment on Dubai Islands, the entry price is accessible.
The upper tier belongs to 5-bedroom villas at AED 13,800,000. These are the project's largest units, with G+1 and G+2 configurations running from roughly 7,000 to 8,075 sq ft. The buyer here is after substantial family space, not just bedroom count.
The 4-bedroom tier covers both townhouse and villa formats. Townhouses in this band run from around 3,850 to 3,994 sq ft. Villas jump sharply in footprint to 5,441 to 5,885 sq ft. That size difference is the main reason for the price gap between the two formats at the same bedroom count.
Townhouses and Villas: Who Each Suits
| Property Type | Bedrooms | Size Range (sq ft) |
|---|---|---|
| Townhouse | 3BR | 3,401 to 3,575 |
| Townhouse | 4BR | 3,847 to 3,994 |
| Villa | 3BR | 3,815 to 4,261 |
| Villa | 4BR | 5,441 to 5,885 |
| Villa | 5BR | 6,690 to 8,075 |
Townhouses suit buyers who want the form factor of a standalone home at a lower cost. The 3BR townhouse is the most accessible entry point into Bay Villas. The villa at every bedroom count delivers significantly more floor area, and on an island setting, more outdoor potential.
The 5BR villas at 7,000 to 8,075 sq ft are aimed at large families or buyers for whom scale matters as much as address.
Amenities Built Around Active Residents
| Theme | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Active & Outdoor | Running Track, Cycle Track, Gymnasium |
| Family | Children's Play Area, Shared Pool |
| Lifestyle | Restaurants, Well-being and Fitness |
| Practical | Basement Parking, Security |
The amenity set leans heavily toward active use. A cycle track, running track, and gymnasium give residents three dedicated fitness and movement options within the development. The combination points to a project targeting residents who exercise regularly and expect those facilities on-site.
The family tier covers the essentials: a shared pool and children's play area. Restaurants on-site add a lifestyle component alongside the fitness-focused offering.
On Track for June 2027
Construction started in July 2024. Completion targets June 2027, giving off-plan buyers roughly three years before handover. The construction timeline means instalments spread across the build period, with the final payment due at the handover date.
Getting In for 20%
| Phase | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down Payment | 20% |
| During Construction | 60% |
| On Handover | 20% |
A 20% down payment starts the commitment, with the bulk of the cost spread across roughly three years of construction. The final 20% falls at handover in June 2027, making it the last significant payment in the schedule.
