Construction Snapshot
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 at a Glance
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 is Nakheel's 296-residence beachfront phase on Island B of Dubai Islands: four buildings, from B+G+7+R up to B+G+20+R, planned above one shared basement and one shared ground level. Nineteen months separate its 22 December 2024 recorded construction start from the 6.6% register reading of 21 July 2026, and none of the four inspection reports in that span singles out a building; each describes enabling, shoring, piling or foundation works on the site as a whole, which is what a single combined base for four towers of different heights looks like at this point in the record.

Inspection Record
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Construction Update Timeline
Four inspections carry a dated register figure for Phase 1: a 0% baseline on 17 June 2025, the first move off zero to 1.21% on 26 January 2026, 3.7% on 28 April 2026 and 6.6% on 21 July 2026. The longest wait in the record comes first, 223 days between the opening two readings, while both later intervals run under 100 days. Each dot on the track below is one of those readings, and each table row links its full monthly update with the report notes for that date.

Pace Analysis
How Fast Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Has Been Built
Four dated readings give Phase 1 three measured intervals. Each figure below is simple arithmetic on two register readings, using a 30-day month, and none of it is a forecast:
- Jun 2025 to Jan 2026: baseline to enabling works, 0% to 1.21% over 223 daysAbout 0.16 points per month
- Jan 2026 to Apr 2026: enabling and piling, 1.21% to 3.7% over 92 daysAbout 0.81 points per month
- Apr 2026 to Jul 2026: piling into foundations, 3.7% to 6.6% over 84 daysAbout 1.04 points per month
Read as a curve, the Phase 1 record gets steeper at every step: each interval is shorter than the one before it and adds more points, from 1.21 points across the 223-day opening gap to 2.90 points in the 84 days to 21 July 2026. Counted from the 22 December 2024 recorded start, the whole build averages about 0.34 points a month over 576 days. On 21 July 2026 the register still stood 93.4 points short of 100%, 603 days before its 15 March 2028 registered completion date, with the September 2028 handover beyond it; those figures sit side by side here as recorded arithmetic, not as a projection of either date. For an end user planning a move or an investor weighing exit timing, the useful signal at 6.6% is direction rather than level: three rising intervals, all of them groundwork, with the shared basement and the four superstructures still to enter the reports.

Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Each stage below is pinned to the dates in the Phase 1 record instead of a generic build sequence. Two stages are on record so far; the three after them come from the four-building configuration in the monitoring reports and carry no reading yet.
Registration, Recorded Start and Baseline
Project 3293 entered the DLD register on 04 October 2024 with a recorded construction start of 22 December 2024; the first dated inspection, on 17 June 2025, set the baseline at 0%.
Enabling, Piling and Foundation Works
Enabling, shoring and piling at 1.21% on 26 January 2026, enabling and piling at 3.7% on 28 April 2026, then foundation works added at 6.6% on 21 July 2026.
Combined Basement and Ground Level
One basement and one ground level shared by all four buildings, listed in every report's project description but not yet named in any inspection notes through 21 July 2026.
Four Superstructures, B+G+7+R to B+G+20+R
Buildings 01 to 04 are configured as B+G+8+R, B+G+13+R, B+G+7+R and B+G+20+R above the shared base; no register reading covers this stage yet.
Completion and Handover
Two end dates frame this stage: 15 March 2028 as the registered completion date in the DLD record, and September 2028, the month Nakheel's payment plan gives for completion and handover.
What each construction stage involves in general is covered once in the guides on the Dubai Construction Updates hub, so this page stays focused on Bay Grove Residences Phase 1's own record.

Between 6.6% and Handover: What Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Buyers Should Do Now
At 6.6% the Phase 1 record is still groundwork, while the launch payment schedule runs on a calendar of its own: by July 2026 it had called 65% of the price (20% on booking plus five dated instalments), against the 6.6% register reading of 21 July 2026. That is arithmetic on the launch schedule of record, not a statement about any buyer's payments, and your own SPA sets what you owe and when. The schedule's next dated instalment, 5%, falls in November 2026, so the three checks below belong before that month rather than after it.
First, match every instalment to the DLD-registered escrow account that First Abu Dhabi Bank holds for project 3293; the Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 escrow account page shows how to confirm it against the official record before a transfer.
Second, if residency is part of the plan, test your tier against the property threshold now: the one-bedroom entry price sits below it, and the Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Golden Visa guide sets out which Phase 1 tiers qualify.
Third, read each new register figure against the dates in your SPA rather than the launch calendar alone; the Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 July 2026 construction update is the latest in the record and the first to name foundation works.
Send me your unit number on WhatsApp and I will tell you what the latest inspection means for your handover and map the sequence for your specific unit.

FAQs
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 Construction Updates Frequently Asked Questions
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 is an active DLD-registered project (number 3293) standing at 6.6% in the Dubai Land Department project register as of the inspection dated 21 July 2026, the newest reading in the record behind this page. Its monitoring report of the same date names three activities under way: enabling, piling and foundation works. Every dated reading is in the inspection timeline above.
Four dated readings are on record for Bay Grove Residences Phase 1: 0% on 17 June 2025, 1.21% on 26 January 2026, 3.7% on 28 April 2026 and 6.6% on 21 July 2026. The July 2026 figure is up 2.90 points on the April 2026 reading, the biggest single move the record has shown.

By simple arithmetic on its dated register readings, Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 has sped up across all three intervals: about 0.16 points per month from June 2025 to January 2026 (1.21 points in 223 days), about 0.81 from January to April 2026 (2.49 points in 92 days) and about 1.04 from April to July 2026 (2.90 points in 84 days). From the 22 December 2024 recorded start to the 6.6% reading of 21 July 2026, the average is about 0.34 points a month. These are measured figures, not a forecast; the working is in the pace analysis above.
No. The DLD register gives Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 a registered completion date of 15 March 2028, which lay 603 days after the 6.6% reading of 21 July 2026 and was still ahead when this page was prepared in September 2026. Handover is scheduled for September 2028, the month Nakheel's payment plan gives for construction completion. The dates that bind an individual buyer are the ones written into that buyer's sale and purchase agreement.
Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 holds 296 residential units, the figure shown in the DLD register and in every monitoring report, across four buildings configured as B+G+8+R, B+G+13+R, B+G+7+R and B+G+20+R above one combined basement and one combined ground level. The mix covers 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments and 4 bedroom penthouses, with layouts in the Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 layouts and project details.
The Independent Progress Monitoring Reports filed for Bay Grove Residences Phase 1 print a Progress Status label and inspection notes, not a percentage, so every figure on this page is the DLD project register reading for the same inspection date, listed on Dubai REST as "Bay Grove Residences, Dubai Islands". On 21 July 2026 the two sources read 6.6% in the register and Enabling Works - Progressing in the report, the label also used in January and April 2026.
