About
About GEMS Estates
Most branded homes in Dubai borrow a hotel name. GEMS Estates takes another route: DAMAC brought in jewellery house de GRISOGONO for the villa exteriors and fashion house Cavalli for the interiors, and the outcome is a deliberately dramatic enclave of just 15 villas in 5, 6, and 7 bedroom layouts inside DAMAC Hills.
My read for end users is that the draw is space and privacy on the golf course: double height living areas, en suite bedrooms, a private cinema, an indoor gym, and an elevated pool all sit within one villa. For investors the case rests on scarcity rather than yield. Fifteen villas is a very small supply, and the value of a design statement at this price depends on how few comparable homes exist, not on rental arithmetic.
Timing needs a clear eye here. The scheduled Q4 2025 handover has passed and the Dubai Land Department register still lists the project as active, with the main contract progressing. I brief every buyer on the current status before any reservation, and each register reading is recorded on my GEMS Estates construction updates page.

GEMS Estates Prices & Sizes
Three villa types, and the spread inside each tier matters more than the headline. The 6 bedroom band runs from 5,784 to 24,557 sq ft, so two villas with the same bedroom count can be entirely different assets; I compare the layout and floor count of each villa type before I compare price per bedroom.

GEMS Estates Payment Plan
Deposit, paid immediately on booking
Eleven instalments within 3 to 33 months of the sale date: 5% at months 3, 6, 9 and 12, 3% at months 15 to 30, and 2% at month 33
On completion
DAMAC runs GEMS Estates on a time-based plan counted from your sale date rather than from construction milestones: 60% is spread across the first 33 months and 40% falls due on completion (60/40 is my shorthand for that split, not a developer label). For an investor the practical point is that the largest single payment stays in hand until DAMAC completes the villa.
Why Me
Why Buy GEMS Estates Through Tohid Fetrat
With only 15 villas and a scheduled handover that has already passed, the villa is only half the decision. The other half is who checks the details, reads the register, and stays accountable to you from reservation through handover.

Specialist in remote purchases for international and non-resident buyers
Independent monthly construction tracking against RERA inspection data
Personal replies on WhatsApp, never a call center or sales team
My advisory service costs you nothing. The commission is paid by the developer, and you pay the same official price as buying directly, with independent guidance included.

For Buyers
Buy Directly From DAMAC Developer Inventory
Limited units are available at GEMS Estates. Where a villa is still held by DAMAC rather than by a first buyer, purchasing it direct means the official price with no resale premium and the developer's own time-based plan counted from your sale date. I confirm which villas are developer-held, and on what terms, before you commit.
- Official DAMAC prices on developer-held villas, no resale markup or transfer premium
- Time-based payment plan confirmed in the SPA for each villa
- Every payment protected through the project's DLD-registered escrow account
- Current villa list with layouts, sizes, and views, sent the same day
Map
Explore GEMS Estates Location on Dubai Map
GEMS Estates by DAMAC sits inside DAMAC Hills, the DAMAC master community built around Trump International Golf Club, Dubai. Through Tohid Fetrat's Dubai Investment Map, you can pinpoint the villas and compare them with other golf and villa communities across the city.
DAMAC's own area map sets the community among established residential districts such as Arabian Ranches, Dubai Production City, and Jumeirah Islands, with First Avenue Mall 11 minutes away and Al Maktoum International Airport 28 minutes away by car. The trade-off is clear: this is a family villa address built on space and greenery, not a walk-to-the-office location.

Own a Unit Here? Sell It or Rent It Out
Owners at GEMS Estates hold one of only 15 branded villas, and that shapes both exit paths. Selling before completion means an off plan resale processed through DAMAC and the Dubai Land Department; holding means planning the rental from the day the villa is handed over. I handle either path personally, from valuation to signed contract.
Sell Your Villa
Get a realistic valuation based on current DAMAC Hills villa resale transactions, then a full marketing and negotiation service through to the DLD transfer. You deal with me directly, never a listing farm.
Rent It Out
Receive a rental estimate for your villa type, guidance on furnishing level and Ejari registration, and tenant sourcing from handover day so the villa starts earning as soon as DAMAC hands it over.
Location
GEMS Estates Location Within DAMAC Hills
Within DAMAC Hills, GEMS Estates is a compact villa cluster set for golf course views, and DAMAC's own presentation describes these as the last clusters overlooking the course. For daily life that puts Trump International Golf Club, Dubai, the Malibu Bay wave pool, and the community centre inside the same master plan; for investors, if the developer's description holds, a golf view position is the one attribute a later phase cannot copy. The wider community is covered in my DAMAC Hills community guide.
DAMAC Hills, DubaiConnectivity
Connectivity from GEMS Estates
DAMAC Hills trades a central address for space, so drive times are the honest measure of daily life here. The figures below come from DAMAC's community map and are measured from DAMAC Hills rather than from the villa gate: a school within 5 minutes, a hospital and a mall within about a quarter of an hour, and Mall of the Emirates within 24 minutes. Families weigh the school and hospital times first; investors should weigh the same numbers, because they drive tenant demand for villas of this size.

Interiors
Interior Design at GEMS Estates
Cavalli designed the interiors, and they are anything but neutral: animal prints, wooden features, and curved textures set against darker blocks of fabric, under a black and gold palette that nods to the painter Gustav Klimt. My advice is to decide early whether you want the full statement or plan to soften it. End users buying for the look get something no standard villa offers; investors should remember that a strong signature narrows the resale audience while raising the ceiling for the right buyer.

GEMS Estates Frequently Asked Questions
GEMS Estates is a collection of 15 branded villas by DAMAC Properties in DAMAC Hills, Dubai. The villa exteriors were designed with de GRISOGONO and the interiors by Cavalli, and the villas come in 5, 6, and 7 bedroom layouts with golf course views.
GEMS Estates is located in DAMAC Hills, the DAMAC master community built around Trump International Golf Club, Dubai. On DAMAC's community map, First Avenue Mall is 11 minutes away by car, Mall of the Emirates 24 minutes, and Al Maktoum International Airport 28 minutes.
5 Bedroom Villas measure approximately 4,059 to 4,391 sq ft (377 to 408 sq m), 6 Bedroom Villas approximately 5,784 to 24,557 sq ft (537 to 2,281 sq m), and 7 Bedroom Villas approximately 7,229 to 17,511 sq ft (672 to 1,627 sq m). In the floor plans, the 5 bedroom types are arranged over ground, first, and second floors, while the 6 and 7 bedroom types run from a basement floor up to a roof floor.
Prices start from AED 6.20M ≈ USD 1.69M for a 5 Bedroom Villa. 6 Bedroom Villas start from AED 18.63M ≈ USD 5.07M and 7 Bedroom Villas from AED 23.20M ≈ USD 6.32M, depending on villa type, size, and availability.
The plan is time-based from the sale date: a 20% deposit on booking, eleven instalments totalling 40% within 3 to 33 months of the sale date, and the final 40% on completion. That places 60% before completion and 40% on completion, with the exact due dates fixed in the SPA.
DAMAC's payment plan states that the Dubai Land Department registration fee is paid in addition to the initial 20% deposit, at the booking stage. There is no advisory fee when you buy through me, because the developer pays the commission. Any administrative or registration service charges are itemized in the reservation paperwork before you sign.
The scheduled handover for GEMS Estates is Q4 2025, and the registered completion date on the Dubai Land Department register is 15 September 2024. Both dates have passed, while the register still listed the project as active, with the main contract progressing, at its inspection of 14 April 2026. No revised handover date is stated in the developer materials, so buyers should confirm the current date in writing with DAMAC. Each register reading is tracked in the GEMS Estates construction updates guide.
Yes. Every villa tier at GEMS Estates, starting from AED 6.20M, is above the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property investment threshold for the 10 year UAE Golden Visa. The dedicated GEMS Estates Golden Visa guide covers eligibility and timing for an off plan villa in detail.

Snagging Inspection Before You Take the Keys
Once DAMAC issues the handover notice, that window is your chance to have defects fixed at DAMAC's cost. On a villa of this scale an independent snagging inspection covers far more than an apartment would: basements and waterproofing, roof floors and terraces, elevated pools and Jacuzzis, large glazing, and the MEP and AC plant, all documented before you sign the completion documents.
Book Your Inspection
Send me your villa number once DAMAC issues the handover notice. I coordinate a qualified independent snagging team, you do not need to be in Dubai.
Full Defect Report
You receive a photographed, itemized report covering finishes, glazing, pools, waterproofing, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC.
Developer Rectification
The report is submitted to DAMAC for repair, with a de-snagging re-check before you accept the villa.
