Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 Construction Progress Summary
The first inspection record for project 4369 is short and unambiguous: the report dated 28 January 2026 notes that no construction activity had started at site and leaves its progress status as N/A, while the DLD register shows 0% for the same visit. What it does fix is the scope of the build ahead: 468 G+1 and G+2 townhouses and villas in a concrete structure with blockwork and internal and external finishes.
- Inspection filed for project 4369 on plot 21569, Al Yelayiss 1
- No site works recorded as complete at the 28 January 2026 visit
- No construction activity under way at the time of inspection
- Progress status recorded as N/A in the inspection report
- Mobilization and enabling works across the Antigua plot
- Foundations and concrete structure for 468 G+1 and G+2 homes
- Blockwork, then internal and external finishes
- Handover expected in June 2030 per the developer
Payment Linked Progress
What 0% Progress Means for Antigua Buyers
The Antigua payment plan runs on the calendar rather than on site milestones: 20% on booking, then 55% across 47 monthly instalments from month 3 to month 49 after the sale, and 25% on completion. A 0% reading does not change when those instalments fall due, so at this first stage four checks matter most.
Verify the escrow account
Your booking deposit and every monthly instalment should go only to the DLD regulated escrow account registered for project 4369, with Mashreq Bank PSC named as trust account bank. Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 escrow account verification is the step before any transfer; the lookup itself takes about two minutes against the official DLD project record.
Reread your SPA payment schedule
Check how your sale and purchase agreement dates each of the 47 instalments, the 3% steps at the 6th, 12th, 18th and 24th instalments, and the 25% due on completion. Not sure how your instalments map to this reading? Send me your SPA schedule and I will map it against the recorded milestones.
Confirm your DLD registration
The 4% DLD registration fee is paid in addition to the 20% deposit and records your unit against project 4369 in the Dubai Land Department register. Keep the registration record for your Antigua unit alongside your SPA before the monthly instalments begin.
Track the readings from zero
With the January 2026 reading at 0% and handover expected in June 2030, many inspection cycles lie ahead. Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 construction updates hub logs each dated reading as the site moves from its first record toward structure.
General framework, not legal advice: milestone definitions, notice periods, and fee obligations are set by your individual SPA and the DLD record, and both should be read directly.
Buying at 0%?
Entering Antigua at its first reading trades certainty for runway: nothing is yet built, while almost the whole instalment schedule still lies ahead of you. Every payment goes to the DLD-registered escrow account for project 4369, released against verified construction progress.
- 0% recorded on 28 January 2026: the full build is still ahead
- Handover expected in June 2030 per the developer
- 20% on booking, 55% monthly, 25% on completion
- Construction risk carried from groundbreaking to handover
- A multi-year wait is the usual delivery horizon
- The longest instalment runway, priced at launch levels

Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 Project GuideSite Context This Cycle
Explore Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 Location on Dubai Map
Antigua occupies plot 21569 in Al Yelayiss 1, one of eight island clusters inside the DAMAC Islands 2 masterplan in Dubailand, and at the 28 January 2026 inspection that plot showed no construction activity, so this cycle's record describes a site where works had not yet begun rather than a sequence of packages.
Around it, the masterplan spreads its clusters and shared lagoon and park amenities across 20 million sq ft, with Sports City, Motor City and DAMAC Hills about 15 minutes away by the developer's drive times. For buyers at the first reading, that means judging an address whose community amenities are masterplan commitments rather than finished places.

Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 Construction Progress in January 2026: Frequently Asked Questions
The Dubai Land Department project register shows 0% current progress for Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 (project 4369) at the inspection dated 28 January 2026. It is the first reading on record, so there is no earlier figure to compare it with, and the inspection report's own progress status field for that visit reads N/A.
The developer anticipates completion in June 2030, and that is the handover date quoted to buyers. The DLD project register lists a registered completion date of 31 December 2030, later than the developer's date, as the register showed it in September 2026. Either date can be revised between inspection cycles; the dated sequence of readings is kept on the Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 construction updates hub.
None had begun on site: the report dated 28 January 2026 records that no construction activity had started at the time of inspection. For a low-rise project of this type, the first works normally recorded are mobilization and enabling works such as site fencing, levelling and temporary facilities, ahead of foundations and the concrete structure.
The report describes project 4369 as 468 G+1 and G+2 townhouses and villas on plot 21569 in Al Yelayiss 1, designed with a concrete structure and blockwork carrying internal and external finishes. The same 468 units appear in the DLD register, and the Antigua price list spreads them across 4 and 5 bedroom townhouses, 5 bedroom twin villas and 6 bedroom luxury villas.
The report dated 28 January 2026 names Mashreq Bank PSC as the trust account bank for project 4369. Booking deposits and instalments for Antigua belong only in that project escrow account, never in a personal or intermediary account, and the Antigua at DAMAC Islands 2 escrow account guide sets out how to confirm the account details before a transfer.
No. The published Antigua plan is dated from the sale rather than linked to construction stages: 20% plus the 4% DLD registration fee on booking, monthly instalments from month 3 to month 49, and only the final 25% tied to completion. A 0% reading therefore does not pause the schedule, which is why each payment's escrow destination matters from the first transfer.
