Ellington Sands 2 Construction Progress Summary
The RERA progress report dated 5 June 2026 records a single activity on the Ellington Sands 2 plot: enabling works progressing at the site. Because that report carries no percentage, the 0.38% on this page is the Dubai Land Department project register's figure for the same date, and it reflects groundwork for the project rather than any part of Tower A or Tower B.
- Construction start recorded in the DLD register on 10 October 2025
- Project registration as Ellington Sands II on 31 October 2025
- Escrow trust account bank on record: Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank
- Enabling works progressing at the site, per the RERA report of 5 June 2026
- Progress status logged as Enabling Works, Progressing
- Inspection photographs held on the register record for this date
- Basement and ground floor with residential, retail and entertainment uses, including a two-floor beach club, as the RERA report describes them
- Tower A with 9 residential floors and Tower B with 6 residential floors, plus roof, in the report's wording
- Handover expected in Q4 2028, against a registered completion date of 31 December 2028
Payment Linked Progress
What 0.38% Progress Means for Ellington Sands 2 Buyers
The Ellington Sands 2 70/30 plan ties four 5% instalments to construction stages, the first at 20% construction, so a 0.38% reading triggers none of them; the instalments running now are the ones counted from each buyer's own reservation date. At this stage of Ellington Sands 2, four actions matter most.
Verify the escrow account
Every instalment, including those counted from your reservation date, should go only to the DLD regulated escrow account registered for project 4140 with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank. Ellington Sands 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 milestone schedule
Check how your sale and purchase agreement defines the four construction-linked instalments and the 30% due on completion, and map those clauses against the 0.38% reading and the Q4 2028 handover. Not sure how your installments map to this reading? Send me your SPA schedule and I will map it against the recorded milestones.
Confirm your Oqood registration
Your purchase should appear against project 4140 in the Dubai Land Department register through Oqood, the off-plan registration that records you as the buyer long before a title deed exists. Ask for the Oqood confirmation once your booking is processed and keep it with your SPA.
Track the reading toward 20%
The first construction-linked instalment waits for 20% construction, far from the 0.38% recorded on 5 June 2026. Ellington Sands 2 construction updates hub logs each new register reading as it appears.
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 0.38%?
Entering a project at the start of its build trades certainty for runway: the plot is in enabling works, handover is expected in Q4 2028, and the full length of the payment plan lies ahead of you. Every payment goes to the DLD-registered escrow account for project 4140, released against construction progress.
- Register reading of 0.38% with enabling works progressing at the site
- Handover expected in Q4 2028
- None of the four construction-linked instalments triggered at this reading
- Structure standing on site before you commit
- Months rather than years left to the handover date
- Shorter instalment runway, with larger sums due close to completion

Ellington Sands 2 by Ellington Project GuideSite Context This Cycle
Explore Ellington Sands 2 Location on Dubai Map
Ellington Sands 2 holds a beachfront plot on Island A that the developer pairs with a private beach, and its renderings set the two buildings around a courtyard opening toward the sea. On a coastal plot like this one, enabling works are the groundwork every later package depends on, and that is the stage the 5 June 2026 RERA report records: enabling works progressing at the site.
Island A is the mixed-use island of Dubai Islands, which the developer describes as home to a mall, hotels and resorts, and a marina, with Dubai Islands Mall about 5 minutes' drive away per its location guide. For a buyer at the 0.38% stage, that island setting matters as much as the build itself, because it shapes how the home will be lived in or let once handover arrives, expected in Q4 2028.

Ellington Sands 2 Construction Progress in June 2026: Frequently Asked Questions
The Dubai Land Department register recorded Ellington Sands 2, registered as Ellington Sands II under project number 4140, at 0.38% on 5 June 2026, the first figure above the 0% shown as its previous inspection. The RERA progress report dated the same day notes that enabling works were progressing at the site and prints no percentage of its own, so 0.38% is the register's reading rather than a figure taken from the report.
Next to the 5 June 2026 reading, the DLD app lists 0% as the Previous Inspection for project 4140 but shows no date for it. Without a date there is no measurable span between the two readings, so this page plots that 0% as an unlabelled point on the progress bar and derives no pace from it. The next dated reading will be the first that can be compared directly with 5 June 2026.
It places Ellington Sands 2 just above zero on the register at the enabling stage, the only activity the 5 June 2026 RERA report describes for the plot. 99.62 percentage points separate the reading from 100%, and nothing in the record ties the 0.38% to any built part of Tower A or Tower B.
The RERA progress report for project 4140 found enabling works progressing at the site and gives the progress status as Enabling Works, Progressing. It describes the planned project as a basement and ground floor with residential, retail and entertainment uses including a two-floor beach club, Tower A with 9 residential floors and Tower B with 6 residential floors, plus roof. The register record also carries inspection photographs for that date, which are not reproduced on this page.
No. Under the developer's 70/30 payment plan, four instalments of 5% each are tied to completion of 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% construction, and the register stood at 0.38% on 5 June 2026, so none had been triggered by that reading. Instalments counted from a buyer's own reservation date follow a separate calendar, and the sale and purchase agreement for each unit is the document that fixes them.
The 0.38% reading was recorded on 5 June 2026 and was 148 days old when this page was prepared on 31 October 2026, so a newer inspection may already exist. Search project 4140, Ellington Sands II, in the Dubai Land Department's Dubai REST app for the latest figure, and see the Ellington Sands 2 construction updates hub for every published reading.
