Nakheel Bay Estate | Beachfront Townhouses and Villas, Dubai Islands
Bay Estate is a new launch by Nakheel at Dubai Islands. It is a private, low-density community of 357 homes and 60 villa plots, built around two swimmable lagoons and a private beach.
Average prices begin at AED 5.9 million for a 3 bedroom townhouse. The payment plan is 20/40/40: 20% down in October 2026, 40% spread across six instalments during the build, and 40% held back until you get the keys. Nakheel estimates completion in January 2031.
Homes come as 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses, 4 bedroom attached villas and 4 bedroom garden villas. Verda, the first neighborhood, is launching now.
Bay Estate is freehold, so any nationality can own here. Dubai International Airport is 18 minutes away by road.
Bay Estate at a Glance
The Five Home Types
Home type | Units | Avg plot | Avg internal | Avg price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
3 bed townhouse | 98 | 2,400 sqft | 3,100 sqft | AED 5.9M |
4 bed townhouse | 78 | 3,900 sqft | 3,500 sqft | AED 6.9M |
4 bed attached villa (G+1) | 66 | 4,100 sqft | 3,700 sqft | AED 7.2M |
4 bed plus attached villa (G+2) | 68 | 4,100 sqft | 5,300 sqft | AED 8.9M |
4 bed garden villa | 47 | 6,500 sqft | 5,200 sqft | AED 10M |
Townhouses sit in 4-plex and 6-plex runs, angled so each home keeps its view. Attached villas come over two or three levels. Garden villas take the largest plots, with a double-height entrance, a lift and a private pool.
Fifteen floor plans are available in total.
Villa Plots
Sixty plots run along the shoreline. Buy the land and build your own villa to Nakheel's design guidelines, at ground plus two floors.
Plot type | Number | Avg size | Avg price |
|---|---|---|---|
Waterfront plot | 46 | 8,000 sqft | AED 17.5M |
Beach plot | 14 | 8,100 sqft | AED 19M |
Plots run from 7,647 to 11,059 sqft. Land is paid in full by September 2029, so there is no handover instalment. Construction costs, consultancy fees and the 4% DLD fee sit outside these figures.
Payment Schedule for Homes
Stage | Amount | Due |
|---|---|---|
Down payment | 20% | October 2026 |
1st instalment | 5% | March 2027 |
2nd instalment | 5% | August 2027 |

5th instalment | 5% | November 2028 |
6th instalment | 5% | April 2029 |
On handover | 40% | January 2031 |

Why Buyers Are Taking Verda First
Forty percent held to handover. You pay 60% across more than four years, then nothing at all from April 2029 until the keys arrive in January 2031.
Low density on a private island. Over 30% of the land stays open, for a planned population of around 18,000.
Nakheel builds all of it. The homes, the lagoons, the beach club and the marina come from one plan, not several builders.
Eighteen minutes to the airport. Closer to the city than Palm Jebel Ali, with the same beachfront.
With residences valued above AED 2 million, buyers may meet the property value requirement for Golden Visa eligibility, subject to applicable conditions.
We are a DLD registered agency in Dubai. The prices above are Nakheel's published averages. What you pay depends on your plot, its position and its size.
