Construction Snapshot
Fiji at DAMAC Islands at a Glance
Fiji at DAMAC Islands groups 798 DAMAC Properties townhouses, in two layouts, inside the DAMAC Islands masterplan in Dubailand, and the cluster's expected handover is Q4 2028. On the DLD side the Fiji cluster is split into two phases, and the record on this page is Fiji 1 (project 3505), entered in the register on 5 February 2025 with its construction start recorded 75 days after that, on 21 April 2025. Fiji 2 is registered separately with its own DLD record; it is not covered by this reading, and its record will be added here once it is supplied. The newest reading supplied for Fiji 1 dates from 1 May 2026, 187 days before this page was prepared, so a newer Fiji 1 inspection may now appear in the register. What sets this record apart is its spread: the 398 Fiji 1 homes are low-rise G+2 and G+1 units rather than one building, so at the enabling stage a Fiji 1 percentage reflects preparation across the whole phase rather than progress on any single home.

Inspection Record
Fiji at DAMAC Islands Construction Update Timeline
The Fiji 1 record holds two dated register readings, 0.25% on 25 July 2025 and 1.74% on 1 May 2026, taken 280 days apart from the DLD entry for project 3505. Fiji 1 was registered on 5 February 2025 and recorded its construction start on 21 April 2025, so the first of those Fiji 1 readings came 95 days into the build. The DLD record for Fiji 1 lists a registered completion date of 31 December 2028, in line with the expected Q4 2028 handover; each phase's contractual completion date is the one in its SPA. Of the two markers on the track, the lime one carries the May 2026 Fiji 1 reading and the unlabelled green one just to its left the July 2025 one, while in the table only the May row links a monthly update, since no monthly page was published for July 2025.

Pace Analysis
How Fast Fiji at DAMAC Islands Has Been Built
Two dated Fiji 1 readings allow one directly measured pace, listed first; the second and third lines are arithmetic, not a forecast, and every line uses 30-day months:
- 25 Jul 2025 to 1 May 2026: Fiji 1 enabling works, 0.25% to 1.74% over 280 days, measured between the two register readings, not a forecastAbout 0.16 points per month
- 21 Apr 2025 to 1 May 2026: Fiji 1 average since its registered start, 1.74 points over 375 days, arithmetic, not a forecastAbout 0.14 points per month
- 1 May 2026 to 31 Dec 2028: rate implied by the Fiji 1 registered completion date, 98.26 points over 975 days, arithmetic, not a forecastAbout 3.02 points per month
Taken together, these figures describe Fiji 1 before its homes appear in the inspection notes. The measured rate and the whole-build average sit close to each other because both spans were taken up by preparation: Fiji 1 needed 95 days from its 21 April 2025 start to register its first 0.25%, and the 1.49 points that followed came over 280 days in which, by the 1 May 2026 report, Fiji 1 still had mobilisation ongoing, had appointed an infrastructure contractor and had enabling works under way. The required rate answers a different question: it spreads the 98.26 Fiji 1 points still unrecorded on 1 May 2026 across the days left before the Fiji 1 registered completion date of 31 December 2028. The registered date is the developer's filing for Fiji 1, not a promise. None of the three shows how the site will move once the concrete structure and block walls the report describes for the 398 Fiji 1 homes begin to rise. If you plan to live in a Fiji townhouse, watch for the first Fiji 1 report that names structural work, because that report will tell you more about the build than these rates can; if you hold one as an investment, compare each new Fiji 1 reading with the rate the registered date implies and note whether the two begin to converge.

Fiji at DAMAC Islands Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Every stage below is placed in the Fiji 1 window it holds on the register, from the 5 February 2025 Fiji 1 registration to the 1.74% Fiji 1 reading of 1 May 2026; stages the May report does not yet list are marked as outside the record so far.
Registration and Construction Start
Fiji 1 was entered in the DLD register as project 3505 on 5 February 2025, and its construction start followed on 21 April 2025, opening the record for 398 homes.
Mobilisation and Enabling Works
Fiji 1 read 0.25% on 25 July 2025 and 1.74% on 1 May 2026, when its IPMR status was Enabling Works - Progressing: mobilisation ongoing, an infrastructure contractor appointed, enabling and infrastructure works advancing unevenly.
Concrete Structure and Blockwork
The RERA report describes the Fiji 1 homes as concrete structure with block walls; on 1 May 2026 that work was not yet listed for Fiji 1.
Interior and Exterior Finishing
Finishing follows the structure: inside and outside the two-storey 4 bedroom and three-storey 5 bedroom townhouses, across both Fiji phases as each record develops.
Completion and Handover
Q4 2028 is the expected handover quarter for the Fiji cluster. In the register, Fiji 1 shows 31 December 2028 as its completion date; for any single townhouse, the binding date is the one written into its SPA.
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 Fiji at DAMAC Islands's own record.

Between 1.74% and Handover: What Fiji at DAMAC Islands Buyers Should Do Now
When Fiji 1 was read at 1.74% on 1 May 2026, its record still showed preparation rather than homes, so for most Fiji buyers the decisions that matter sit in contracts and accounts rather than on the site. DAMAC's DAMAC Islands launch plan dates instalments by months from the sale rather than by construction stage, so under that plan each payment falls due on the date in your SPA whatever the next reading shows; confirm the current schedule for your Fiji phase with DAMAC and in the SPA, and settle the three checks below before your next instalment.
First, match every transfer to the escrow account registered for the phase you bought into: Emirates NBD holds the account for Fiji 1 (project 3505), whereas a Fiji 2 buyer takes the account details printed in the SPA or Oqood for that unit, confirms them on Dubai REST and never pays into the Fiji 1 account, as the Fiji at DAMAC Islands escrow account page sets out.
Second, if residency is part of the plan, compare the value on your title deed or Oqood with the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold in the Fiji at DAMAC Islands Golden Visa eligibility guide; at listed prices the entry home, a 4 Bedroom Townhouse listed at AED 2.251M ≈ USD 613K, clears it.
Third, judge progress by dated readings: the Fiji at DAMAC Islands May 2026 construction update records what the 1 May 2026 Fiji 1 inspection found, and this page adds each newer Fiji 1 reading, and the Fiji 2 record, to the track above as they are supplied.

FAQs
Fiji at DAMAC Islands Construction Updates Frequently Asked Questions
On the newest DLD reading supplied for this page, Fiji at DAMAC Islands was at the enabling stage: Fiji 1 (project 3505), the earlier of the cluster's two registered phases, stood at 1.74% on 1 May 2026. The RERA report on that Fiji 1 visit rated the phase Enabling Works - Progressing, and because it gives a status rather than a percentage, the 1.74% is taken from the Fiji 1 register entry. A newer Fiji 1 inspection may have been filed since the May reading, and the Fiji 1 stage record above shows where that reading sits in the build.
The Fiji 1 timeline (DLD project 3505) begins with registration on 5 February 2025 and a construction start on 21 April 2025, 75 days on from registration, followed by two dated Fiji 1 register readings, 0.25% on 25 July 2025 and 1.74% on 1 May 2026, which sit 1.49 points apart. Ahead of those readings stands the Fiji 1 registered completion date of 31 December 2028, and the May reading for Fiji 1 is set out in the Fiji 1 May 2026 construction update.
The DLD record for Fiji 1 (project 3505) gives a registered completion date of 31 December 2028, the closing day of Q4 2028, which is the quarter in which handover of Fiji at DAMAC Islands is expected. That Fiji 1 date is a filing made for one phase only; no completion date for Fiji 2 is shown here, and the contractual date for any townhouse is the one in its own SPA. Any change to the Fiji 1 date would appear in the register first, and this page follows the register.
Fiji 1 (DLD project 3505) moved 1.49 points in the 280 days from 0.25% on 25 July 2025 to 1.74% on 1 May 2026, while reaching 100% by its registered completion date of 31 December 2028 leaves 98.26 Fiji 1 points for the 975 days after that reading. The Fiji 1 pace analysis sets out both spans as rates per 30-day month; they are arithmetic, not a forecast, and an interval spent on enabling works says little about how quickly the concrete structure and block walls of the Fiji 1 homes will rise.
Fiji at DAMAC Islands has 798 homes across the Fiji cluster, sold as 4 Bedroom Townhouses and 5 Bedroom Townhouses. The RERA progress report for the 1 May 2026 Fiji 1 inspection describes Fiji 1 (project 3505) as 398 G+2 and G+1 townhouses and villas, all of them low-rise homes; Fiji 2 is registered separately with its own DLD record. Layouts, sizes and prices are in the Fiji at DAMAC Islands project guide.
Fiji 2 joins this record once its DLD data is supplied: the register holds Fiji at DAMAC Islands as two separate projects, and so far only Fiji 1 (project 3505), last supplied at 1.74% on 1 May 2026, is tracked here. Fiji 2 is registered separately with its own DLD record; buyers in Fiji 2 check their own phase's record on Dubai REST and the escrow details in their SPA, and the first Fiji 2 readings will sit beside the Fiji 1 rows in the Fiji inspection timeline.
