Project Overview
Bay Estate by Nakheel is a villa community on Dubai Islands, giving buyers the opportunity to acquire land in one of the emirate’s newest coastal destinations and build a home to their own specifications. The development offers Waterfront Plots from AED 17.5M and Beach Plots from AED 19M, with average plot sizes of 8,000 to 8,100 sq. ft.
The community is defined by three residential collections: Cala along the water, Verda surrounded by greenery and Agora shaped around shared amenities. Residents share access to two swimmable lagoons, a beach club, pool clubhouses, a marina, open-air yoga decks, sports courts, kids’ play areas, promenades and landscaped open spaces, all within a walkable island setting. Bay Estate offers easy access to key landmarks across Dubai such as Burj Khalifa and Palm Jumeirah.
