Bay Estate
by Nakheel · handover Q4 2029
Bay Estate, in plain numbers.
Bay Estate is Nakheel's first residential release on Island E, the lowest-density island in the Dubai Islands masterplan off the Deira coast. It carries the Bay Villas idea onto a stretch of beach that has been kept deliberately quiet: three and four bedroom townhouses, five and six bedroom villas, and a small number of seven bedroom beachfront estates, each with direct access to the sand and to the marina-side promenade.
The island sits 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport, 10 minutes from the Deira corniche and about 25 minutes from Downtown. Bookings opened in March 2026 with a 25 per cent down payment, 55 per cent through construction and 20 per cent at handover, planned for December 2029. The project is freehold, so buyers of any nationality own outright, and every price point qualifies for the Golden Visa.
Bay Estate is an off-plan residential project by Nakheel in Dubai Islands, Dubai. Handover is planned for Q4 2029. No sales have reached the Land Department register yet.
