Construction Snapshot
Sunset Bay at a Glance
Sunset Bay by Imtiaz is Imtiaz Developments' 66-residence building on Island A at Dubai Islands, rising only to a ground level, two podium levels, eight residential floors and a roof. Its entire register record fits inside 587 days: construction started on 25 December 2024, the project was registered on 17 January 2025, and the reading of 4 August 2026 stood at 78.04%. The cards below are the DLD register anchors for that record, with the developer's handover expected in Q4 2026.

Inspection Record
Sunset Bay Construction Update Timeline
One dated reading anchors this record so far: 78.04% in the DLD register on 4 August 2026, the figure documented in the August 2026 monthly update. The register's inspection card also lists a previous inspection at 64.43% but gives it no date, so it appears on the track as a dot without a month and has no table row. Each later reading adds a dot and a row, running toward the registered completion date of 25 December 2026.

Pace Analysis
How Fast Sunset Bay Has Been Built
Sunset Bay's register carries a single dated reading so far, so there is no measured inspection-to-inspection pace yet. Two rates can still be computed from the register dates, both arithmetic on a 30-day month, not a forecast:
- 25 Dec 2024 to 4 Aug 2026: start to the latest reading, 78.04 points over 587 daysAbout 3.99 points per month
- 4 Aug 2026 to 25 Dec 2026: 21.96 points left to the registered completion date over 143 daysAbout 4.61 points per month needed
Set side by side, the two rates sit roughly 0.6 points per month apart: about 3.99 averaged since the 25 December 2024 start, about 4.61 implied for the 143 days after the 4 August 2026 reading. The register also shows an earlier reading of 64.43%, but without a date it shows direction only and cannot be turned into a monthly rate. What remains is a different kind of work from what came before: the RERA report of 4 August 2026 records structure works completed, with the external envelope, MEP and internal finishes progressing across eight residential floors, two podium levels and the roof. For an end user planning a Q4 2026 move, and for an investor timing the 40% completion payment, the informative test is each new register figure measured against the 4.61 rate rather than the average to date.

Sunset Bay Build Stages, Mapped to the Inspections
Sunset Bay's record has one dated reading and one RERA report, so the stages below are anchored to what the 4 August 2026 report lists as completed and progressing, and to the register dates either side of it.
Construction Start and Registration
The register records construction starting on 25 December 2024 and the project registering on 17 January 2025, 23 days later, both printed exactly as recorded.
Enabling, Piling and Foundations
No dated reading covers this phase; the RERA report of 4 August 2026 lists enabling, piling and foundation works on the Island A plot as completed.
Ground, Podium and Residential Frame
The concrete frame across the ground level, both podium levels, all eight residential floors and the roof is recorded complete in the 4 August 2026 RERA report, with the register at 78.04%.
Envelope, MEP and Internal Finishes
Internal works, the external envelope, MEP and internal finishes were progressing at the 4 August 2026 inspection, with 21.96 points left to 100% on the register.
Furnishing, Amenities and Handover
Fitting the custom furniture included in every residence, completing the rooftop pool deck and clubhouse, and final inspections ahead of the Q4 2026 handover; still ahead as of 4 August 2026.
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's own record.

Between 78.04% and Handover: What Sunset Bay Buyers Should Do Now
The 21.96 points between the 4 August 2026 reading and 100% are envelope, MEP and finishing work inside a frame the RERA report already records as complete, and the Q4 2026 handover is the next fixed date on the buyer's side, together with the 40% due on completion. Handover notices at comparable projects typically give buyers a short window to complete their appointment, so the three steps below happen now, not when the notice arrives.
First, arrange independent snagging so defects in your residence, and in the custom furniture that comes with it, are documented before you accept it; the Sunset Bay snagging page covers timing and what gets inspected.
Second, before the 40% completion payment, confirm it is going to the project's registered escrow account; the Sunset Bay escrow account page shows how to check the First Abu Dhabi Bank account for project 3460.
Third, if residency is part of your plan, check whether your unit type qualifies through the Sunset Bay Golden Visa guide before handover, since only selected unit types reach the threshold and title deed timing affects the application path.
Send me your unit number on WhatsApp and I will tell you what the latest inspection means for your handover and map the sequence for your specific unit.

FAQs
Sunset Bay Construction Updates Frequently Asked Questions
Sunset Bay by Imtiaz, DLD project 3460 with a status of Active, read 78.04% in the Dubai Land Department register on 4 August 2026. The RERA report of the same date records the structure as complete and the envelope, MEP and internal finishes as progressing, which places the building in its finishing stage. The full record is in the Sunset Bay inspection timeline above.
As of 4 August 2026, the Sunset Bay by Imtiaz record holds one dated DLD register reading: 78.04%. The register's inspection card also lists a previous inspection at 64.43% without a date, 13.61 points below the August 2026 figure, so it sits on the track as an undated dot with no table row of its own. The dated reading is documented in the Sunset Bay by Imtiaz August 2026 construction update.
The DLD register lists 25 December 2026 as the registered completion date for Sunset Bay by Imtiaz, project 3460, while the developer's expected handover is Q4 2026, so the registered date falls inside the handover quarter. At the 78.04% reading of 4 August 2026 that date had not passed and sat 143 days ahead. Actual handover is confirmed by Imtiaz Developments as final inspections complete, and this page's record is updated when the closing inspection is recorded.
Sunset Bay by Imtiaz holds 66 residences in a single G+2P+8+R building: a ground level, two podium levels, eight residential floors and a roof level. According to the developer's floor plans, the 3 bedroom duplexes run across the ground and first podium levels, the second podium level holds the clubhouse and gym, the 1 and 2 bedroom apartments fill the eight residential floors, and the roof carries the swimming pool, pool deck and jacuzzi. The RERA report of 4 August 2026 describes the same G+2P+8+R configuration.
Measured from the 25 December 2024 construction start, Sunset Bay by Imtiaz reached 78.04% by the reading of 4 August 2026, an average of about 3.99 points per month over 587 days. Reaching 100% by the 25 December 2026 registered completion date implies about 4.61 points per month over the following 143 days. Both figures are arithmetic on a 30-day month, not a forecast, and no inspection-to-inspection pace exists yet because the earlier 64.43% reading is undated; the working is in the pace analysis above.
Sunset Bay by Imtiaz is tracked through two official records: the RERA Independent Progress Monitoring Report, which describes works completed and progressing but prints no percentage, and the Dubai Land Department project register, which posted the 78.04% reading for 4 August 2026. The register lists the project as Sunset Bay One By Imtiaz, project 3460, the name to search on Dubai REST, and this page adds each new dated reading with a link to its monthly update. The method applied to every project is explained on the Dubai Construction Updates hub.
