In November 2026 DAMAC listed one one-bedroom apartment at AED 3,939,000 and four penthouses from AED 66.8 million, with handover in Q4 2028. Facts last verified 13 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Developer | [DAMAC Properties](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/damac) | | Location | [Dubai Harbour](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-harbour), Dubai | | Status | under construction | | Developer's handover target | Q4 2028 | | Sales launched | 2023-01 | | Tenure | freehold | | Price | From AED 3,939,000 to AED 75,039,000 (published figure, 13 November 2026) | | Average price per sq ft | AED 5,934 | | Home types | 1-bedroom apartments, 4-bedroom penthouses, 5-bedroom penthouses | | Brand | Roberto Cavalli | | Golden Visa value test | Some homes are priced at or above AED 2,000,000 | ## Overview DAMAC Bay by Cavalli stands on the [Dubai Harbour](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/dubai/dubai-harbour) waterfront, across from Dubai Marina, with interiors by the Italian fashion house Roberto Cavalli on a sea theme. [DAMAC](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/damac) describes a 42-storey project, and its renderings show three linked towers, as does Property Finder's overview. DAMAC's FAQ places one- to three-bedroom apartments on levels 2 to 28 and larger three- to five-bedroom homes on levels 29 to 40, although its penthouse listings carry floor 48 in the unit code. The shared facilities include an infinity pool, a sky garden, workstations set in the pool, a private beach and a rooftop pavilion where DAMAC plans opera performances with a fountain. DAMAC dates the launch to January 2023, and Property Finder records construction starting in April 2023. On 13 November 2026 DAMAC's site listed five units. There was one one-bedroom apartment of 1,304 sq ft on floor 3, with two bathrooms, at AED 3,939,000, or about AED 3,020 per sq ft. There were three four-bedroom penthouses of 8,895 to 10,035 sq ft at AED 66,843,000 to AED 75,039,000, and one five-bedroom penthouse of 10,053 sq ft on floor 48 at AED 73,036,000. These are the units on offer in November 2026, not the full range in the towers. The two- and three-bedroom apartments in DAMAC's FAQ were not offered online on that date. DAMAC's plan for all three unit types (PP-645992, October 2026, shared with DAMAC Bay 2) asks for 9% immediately, 55% in 23 instalments over the 24 months after purchase, and 40% on completion. Those payments add up to 104% of the price because the immediate payment includes the 4% DLD registration fee, so on the price itself the plan is 5/55/40. The project page headline still shows a 60/40 plan. Timing is the larger question: DAMAC's project page gives handover in the third quarter of 2027, its unit cards give the fourth quarter of 2028, and Property Finder lists January 2027. The latest date is shown here, and the gap of almost two years should be settled in writing before you sign. Property Finder showed developer stock as sold out on 13 November 2026, with 148 resale listings, while DAMAC's own site still listed five units. Property Finder's launch figures were AED 3.9 million for one bedroom, AED 6.1 million for two, AED 11 million for a three-bedroom duplex, AED 20 million for four and AED 29 million for five bedrooms, on a 20/40/40 plan. DAMAC's remaining penthouses are priced well above those starting figures, so ask what sets them apart from resale stock. Who it suits: buyers who want a branded, sea-facing home in a settled part of the coast, with JBR Walk and Dubai Marina Mall about five minutes away on DAMAC's figures, and penthouse buyers looking at the top of the market. What to weigh: the conflicting handover dates, the high price per square foot, and the lack of published detail on what the Cavalli brand provides once the towers are finished and how it affects the service charge. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | AED 3,939,000 | | 1,304 sq ft | 2 | limited | | 4-bedroom penthouses | AED 66,843,000 | AED 75,039,000 | 8,895 to 10,035 sq ft | | limited | | 5-bedroom penthouses | AED 73,036,000 | | 10,053 sq ft | 7 | limited | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 5/55/40 - Booking deposit: 5% (On booking) - During construction: 55% (23 instalments from month 1 to month 24 after purchase) - On completion: 40% (Q4 2028) Paid before handover: 60%. DAMAC plan PP-645992 (October 2026), published for one-bedroom apartments and four- and five-bedroom penthouses, and shared with DAMAC Bay 2. DAMAC's schedule shows 9% due immediately; the instalments total 104% of the price, so this includes the 4% DLD registration fee. ## What works - A beachfront site in Dubai Harbour, opposite Dubai Marina, with JBR Walk and Dubai Marina Mall about five minutes away on DAMAC's figures. - Under construction since April 2023 on Property Finder's record, so the project is past the earliest stage of risk. - A private beach, sky garden and infinity pool among the shared facilities. - 40% of the price is due on completion. ## What to weigh - Handover is Q3 2027 on DAMAC's project page, Q4 2028 on its unit cards and January 2027 on Property Finder. Confirm the date in the sale agreement. - Only five developer units were listed on 13 November 2026, and four of them were penthouses priced above AED 66 million. - Property Finder showed developer stock as sold out, with 148 resale listings, so resale may offer more choice and different prices. - DAMAC's floor information is inconsistent: a 42-storey description, homes up to level 40 in the FAQ, and penthouse codes on floor 48. - What the Cavalli brand supplies after handover, and its effect on service charges, is not published. ## Location In Dubai Harbour, which faces Dubai Marina between Palm Jumeirah and Bluewaters. Drive times below are DAMAC's. - JBR Walk: about 5 minutes - Dubai Marina Mall: about 5 minutes - Bluewaters Dubai: about 6 minutes - Dubai College: about 12 minutes - Mall of the Emirates: about 15 minutes - Al Maktoum International Airport: about 30 minutes - Dubai International Airport: about 40 minutes ## Amenities - Infinity pool - Sky garden - Floating workstations in the pool - Private beach - Rooftop opera pavilion ## Questions and answers ### What is the starting price at DAMAC Bay by Cavalli?
