Construction Snapshot
Sunset Bay Grand at a Glance
Sunset Bay Grand is the 98-home Imtiaz Developments address on Island A, Dubai Islands, registered with the Dubai Land Department as project 3868 on 30 September 2025 and started 15 days later, on 15 October 2025. Ten months into the build, the register read 16.29% on 17 August 2026, with handover expected in Q4 2027. Because the whole project is one building of ground, two podium levels, 10 residential floors and a roof level, every point on this record describes a single structure rather than an average across several towers.

Inspection Record
Sunset Bay Grand Construction Update Timeline
The Sunset Bay Grand record holds one dated reading so far: 16.29% on 17 August 2026, 306 days after the 15 October 2025 start. The register also carries a previous figure of 10.32% with no date beside it, so it sits on the track below as an unlabelled dot rather than a table row, and the 5.97-point step between the two cannot be spread across any number of months. The single row links the August 2026 monthly update, where that reading is examined in full.

Pace Analysis
How Fast Sunset Bay Grand Has Been Built
With a single dated reading, Sunset Bay Grand has no inspection-to-inspection velocity yet. What can be worked out is the average since the registered start and the rate implied by the distance still to cover, both arithmetic, not a forecast:
- Oct 2025 to Aug 2026: start to first dated reading, 16.29 points over 306 days to 17 August 2026About 1.6 points per month
- Aug 2026 to Feb 2028: the remaining 83.71 points spread across the 547 days to the 15 February 2028 registered completion dateAbout 4.6 points per month
- Previous reading to Aug 2026: 10.32%, undated, to 16.29% on 17 August 2026, a 5.97-point stepNo dated span, no pace
Read together, these figures describe the opening of a record rather than a curve. The first 306 days carried Sunset Bay Grand through site activation, enabling works, piling and foundations, all listed as completed in the 17 August 2026 RERA report, while the structure itself was only recorded as progressing. The 4.6-point figure is simply the distance left divided by the days left to the registered completion date; it is not a projection and not a verdict on the Q4 2027 handover. Buyers should also know that the launch payment schedule put 30% of the price due by 17 August 2026, rising to 40% on 15 September 2026, while the register read 16.29%; that is arithmetic rather than a delay signal. For end users and investors alike, the next dated reading is the figure that matters: it will give this project its first measured pace, and until it lands the completion and delay clauses in each SPA remain the reference.

Sunset Bay Grand Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Each stage below is pinned to the window it occupies in the Sunset Bay Grand record, from the 30 September 2025 registration to the one dated reading of 17 August 2026, so the early stages read as done and the later ones as still ahead of this single building.
Registration and Site Mobilization
Registered as DLD project 3868 on 30 September 2025, with construction starting 15 days later on 15 October 2025; the August 2026 report still notes mobilization as ongoing.
Enabling, Piling and Foundations
Enabling works, piling and foundations for the single building, all three recorded as completed in the RERA report dated 17 August 2026.
Podium and Residential Structure
Structure works were recorded as progressing at 16.29% on 17 August 2026, toward two podium levels, 10 residential floors and a roof level; the report names no level reached.
Envelope, Services and Amenity Levels
Facade, building services, the first-floor amenity deck and the rooftop sky pool follow the frame; none of this work appears in the 17 August 2026 report.
Furnishing, Completion and Handover
All 98 residences are to be handed over fully furnished, with handover expected in Q4 2027 and the 40% completion payment set for December 2027.
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 Sunset Bay Grand's own record.

Between 16.29% and Handover: What Sunset Bay Grand Buyers Should Do Now
At 16.29% on 17 August 2026, what a Sunset Bay Grand buyer can act on is the payment record, not the building. The instalments in the launch schedule carry fixed dates, and the next one is 10% on 15 December 2026, so the three checks below belong before that transfer, not after it.
First, confirm that every instalment goes only to the First Abu Dhabi Bank trust account registered for project 3868; the Sunset Bay Grand escrow account page shows how to check it against the DLD record.
Second, if residency is part of the plan, settle the application path early through the Sunset Bay Grand Golden Visa guide, since every layout is priced from AED 2.19M ≈ USD 596K and eligibility shapes how the purchase is structured.
Third, follow the dated record rather than the renderings: the Sunset Bay Grand August 2026 inspection page holds the only dated reading so far, and each new register figure joins the timeline above as it lands.
