Data source: the Dubai Land Department project register reading for project 2406 dated 19 May 2026, read alongside the RERA inspection report of the same date; the register lists the previous figure of 77.01% without a date. This reading was 129 days old at this update, and the August 2026 update carries the later one. Hero and project images are Nakheel project visuals, not photographs from this inspection. Construction tracking against RERA inspection data runs across the full tohidfetrat.com project portfolio and is reviewed after every published cycle. Last updated: September 2026.

Palm Beach Tower 1 Construction Progress Summary
The 19 May 2026 inspection recorded Palm Beach Tower 1 at 80.7% against a previous register figure of 77.01% that carries no date, so the 3.69 point difference is a comparison rather than a pace. The inspection report lists enabling, foundation and structure works as completed, with MEP, internal works, internal finishes and the external envelope progressing at different stages.
- Enabling works on plot 2059
- Foundation works for Tower 1
- Structure works on the tower, recorded as B+G+11P+37+LR+R
- MEP works: mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems
- Internal works and internal finishes, at different stages
- External envelope works on the tower
- Mobilisation works, noted as ongoing in the report
- Remaining register inspection cycles toward 100%
- Completion approvals with the authorities
- Handover scheduled for Q4 2026, against a registered completion date of 31 December 2026
Payment Linked Progress
What 80.7% Progress Means for Palm Beach Tower 1 Buyers
Off plan payment schedules in Dubai usually tie installments to construction stages or to handover, so the 19 May 2026 reading of 80.7% tells a Palm Beach Tower 1 buyer which obligations and protections come next. Four actions matter at this point in the build.
Verify the escrow account
Payments still due before handover belong only in the DLD regulated escrow account for project 2406, held with Mashreq Bank PSC. Palm Beach Tower 1 escrow account verification comes before any transfer, and the lookup takes about two minutes against the official DLD project record.
Reread your SPA milestone schedule
Look at how your sale and purchase agreement words completion linked installments and the handover notice period, then set those clauses against the Q4 2026 handover and the 31 December 2026 registered completion date. Not sure how your installments map to this reading? Send me your SPA schedule and I will map it against the recorded register milestones.
Book the snagging window
With the structure complete and 226 days between the 19 May 2026 inspection and the registered completion date, Palm Beach Tower 1 sits inside the usual booking window for a pre handover inspection, including the stair and terrace checks a duplex penthouse needs. The Palm Beach Tower 1 snagging inspection guide sets out the timing.
Track the remaining cycles
The 19.3 points still to go will be recorded across later register inspections before completion. The Palm Beach Tower 1 construction updates hub lists every dated reading in one place.
General framework, not legal advice: milestone definitions, notice periods, and fee obligations come from your own SPA and the DLD record, so read both directly.
Buying at 80.7%?
A late-stage entry gives up payment runway in exchange for visibility: the frame of Palm Beach Tower 1 is recorded complete, the handover window is short, and the decision narrows to which of the remaining units fits. Every payment goes to the DLD-registered escrow account for project 2406, released against recorded construction progress.
- Structure recorded complete: the 19 May 2026 inspection is the risk picture
- Handover scheduled for Q4 2026, 226 days to the registered completion date
- 278 residential units in one tower, from apartments to duplex penthouses
- Construction risk carried from groundworks through to handover
- A multi-year wait is the usual delivery horizon at launch
- A longer installment runway at launch-level pricing

About the Development
Palm Beach Tower 1 Project Details
Recorded with its structure complete at the 19 May 2026 inspection, Palm Beach Tower 1 is a finishing stage Nakheel tower of 278 residential units, from 1 bedroom apartments to duplex penthouses, at the Palm Gateway. Starting prices: AED 3.25M ≈ USD 885K.
At this stage the trade off is a short wait set against a narrower choice of units and less time to spread payments, with handover scheduled for Q4 2026.
Palm Beach Tower 1 by Nakheel Project GuideSite Context This Cycle
Explore Palm Beach Tower 1 Location on Dubai Map
Palm Beach Tower 1 stands on plot 2059 at the Palm Gateway, the point where the island's trunk joins the mainland, and its basement, ground floor, 11 podium levels and 37 floors above them shape this cycle's work: with the frame finished, the external envelope across the tower faces and the MEP and finishing packages inside are what the May 2026 inspection found progressing.
Around the site, the infrastructure residents will use is already running: the brochure for the wider Palm Beach Towers development marks tram and monorail access, and Atlantis, The Palm, Nakheel Mall and Palm West Beach on its location map are established destinations rather than future plans. Tower 1 is therefore finishing into a working part of the island, a practical point for buyers weighing their own use or a letting plan once the Q4 2026 handover arrives.

Palm Beach Tower 1 Construction Progress in May 2026: Frequently Asked Questions
Palm Beach Tower 1 stood at 80.7% construction progress in the Dubai Land Department project register at the inspection dated 19 May 2026, listed under DLD project 2406 as Palm Beach Towers -1. The register shows 77.01% as the previous inspection, a difference of 3.69 points.
No. As of the 19 May 2026 reading, the DLD register kept 31 December 2026 as the registered completion date, 226 days after that inspection, and handover is scheduled for Q4 2026. Registered dates can be revised between inspection cycles, so the current entry is worth checking before any payment; how register dates relate to handover is covered on the Palm Beach Tower 1 construction updates hub.
Yes. The RERA inspection report dated 19 May 2026 lists enabling, foundation and structure works as completed for Tower 1, described as B+G+11P+37+LR+R: a basement, ground floor, 11 podium levels, 37 floors, a lower roof and a roof. From this point the remaining percentage sits in systems, fit out and the building envelope rather than in the frame.
The 19 May 2026 report records MEP, internal works, internal finishes and external envelope works as progressing at different stages, and notes mobilisation works as ongoing. The photographs attached to that report show a tower crane and scaffolding at the podium and an apartment interior with glazing installed and the floor under protection.
The register screen for the 19 May 2026 inspection shows 77.01% as the previous inspection but attaches no date to it. Without a date, the 3.69 point difference cannot be turned into a monthly pace, so this page reports it as a comparison only; the first dated pair of readings arrives with the August 2026 update.
Averaged across the whole build, about 1.91 points a month: 80.7 points over the 1,265 days from the 1 December 2022 construction start to the 19 May 2026 reading, using a 30-day month. This is arithmetic, not a forecast; late-stage finishing packages need not move at the whole-build average, and no delay or early delivery is implied.
