Bay Villas by Nakheel

Bay Villas by Nakheel is a gated, low-density villa community on Island B in Dubai Islands, with 636 residences across five collections: Townhouses, Semi Detached Villas, Garden Villas, Waterfront Villas and Beachfront Villas. The homes are built as G+1 and G+2 villas and townhouses set along 1.3 km of beach and a 1.3 km rock water-edge promenade.

Bay Villas is on Island B, one of the five islands in the developer's Dubai Islands masterplan. Residents reach the rest of the city over the Dubai Islands access bridge, which spans 1,425 m to the Bur Dubai side across Dubai Creek. The developer's brochure lists the Infinity Bridge at 6 minutes, Dubai International Airport at 18 minutes, Dubai Mall at 25 minutes and Downtown Dubai at 26 minutes.

Townhouses have 3 and 4 bedrooms at 3,400 to 3,900 sq ft (316 to 362 sq m). Semi Detached Villas have 3 and 4 bedrooms at 3,900 to 4,300 sq ft (353 to 399 sq m). Garden Villas have 4 and 5 bedrooms at 5,600 to 6,100 sq ft (520 to 567 sq m). Waterfront Villas have 5 bedrooms at 6,800 to 7,900 sq ft (632 to 734 sq m). Beachfront Villas measure ≈ 13,647 to 13,828 sq ft (1,268 to 1,285 sq m).

The community plan includes a beach and beach club, a clubhouse, a community pool, a sitting pavilion, a sports court, a fitness area, play areas, a barbecue area, a linear park and a shoreline park within gated communities.

Yes. The full process, from reservation to SPA signing and registration, can be completed remotely, and I manage it end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of the remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.

Bay Villas follows a 20/50/30 payment plan: 20% of the price is paid on booking, 50% during construction and the final 30% on handover, expected in Q2 2027, so 70% is paid before handover. The 50% share is paid in instalments on the schedule set in the buyer's Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) with the developer. The main statutory cost on top of the price is the 4% DLD registration fee, calculated on the purchase price and paid to the Dubai Land Department alongside the 20% booking payment. On the AED 4.0M ≈ USD 1.09M Townhouses entry, the 20% booking payment is AED 0.80M ≈ USD 218K before that fee.

Off plan payments for Bay Villas are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with Dubai Islamic Bank and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The Bay Villas escrow account guide explains how the account works and how to check it.

Bay Villas comprises 636 residences in total, and current availability stands at 2 Units Available. Releases and prices are set by Nakheel and can change between construction stages, so availability is confirmed unit by unit at the time of reservation.
