Individual arm’s-length sales as registered with the Dubai Land Department. Sizes are as recorded on the title deed; price is the registered consideration, which excludes transfer costs and any agency or developer charges.

Registered DLD transactions for this project. Only arm's-length 'Sales' of homes are counted; intra-family 'Gifts' transfers, zero-price rows, and land, building and villa transfers are excluded. Offices, shops, showrooms and other non-residential units in the same building are also excluded — they price far above the apartments above them and would otherwise set the top of the price-per-square-foot range. Where the register holds the same sale twice, the duplicate is removed before anything is counted. A project is published only once it has at least 30 qualifying sales. Period and bedroom figures are medians of AED per square foot, which are robust to the outliers that skew a mean on a thin sample. A bedroom row resting on fewer than five registered sales shows its sale count and no median, because a median over one or two sales describes those sales and not the market. Benchmarks are medians over the trailing 12 months for the same area and registration type. This is a dated extract, not a live query: it changes only when the extract is regenerated with `npm run data:dld`. Dates are the Dubai Land Department's own registration dates. Where a sale reaches us twice — once in DLD's bulk export and once in its daily feed — we keep the bulk record, and DLD registers on working days, so a sale agreed at a weekend carries the following working day.

The brief

About this project

One, two and three-bedroom apartments at Sunset Bay 3, Dubai Islands

Sunset Bay 3 at Dubai Islands is a residential building by Imtiaz Developments. It holds 63 homes: 30 one-bedroom apartments of 943.92 to 1,047 sq ft, 32 two-bedroom apartments of 1,347.64 to 2,193.39 sq ft and one three-bedroom apartment of 2,058.06 sq ft. The building has a ground floor, two podium parking levels and eight residential floors under a roof. The payment plan is 60/40, and Imtiaz Developments gives completion as February 2027.

Construction at 60.04%. The Dubai Land Department inspected the site on 17 September 2026 and recorded the building at 60.04% complete. The inspection before that, on 25 June 2026, recorded 38.26%. A buyer can follow the register's inspections to track the building before and after committing.

A small building. Sunset Bay 3 has 63 homes over eight residential floors, sharing one clubhouse, one gym and the outdoor amenities. The floor plans draw eight homes on each of the first seven residential floors, four one-bedroom and four two-bedroom.

One three-bedroom home. The building has a single three-bedroom apartment, on the eighth floor.

Eight minutes to the Metro. Imtiaz Developments gives the nearest Metro station and Al Mamzar Beach as eight minutes from the building, and Dubai International Airport as twelve.

Nearby

Sunset Bay 3 is on Dubai Islands. Imtiaz Developments prints the name on its brochure, its factsheet and its payment plan.

The brochure and the factsheet give the same travel times from the building:

Destination Travel time
Infinity Bridge 5 min
Waterfront Market 5 min
Nearest Metro station 8 min
Al Mamzar Beach 8 min
Dubai International Airport 12 min
The Elite English School 12 min
Cruise Terminal 15 min
La Mer Beach 15 min
Jumeirah Public Beach 20 min
Dubai Frame 20 min
Downtown Dubai 24 min
The Dubai Mall 24 min

Travel times as printed on Imtiaz Developments' Sunset Bay 3 brochure and factsheet, which agree on every figure.

For a tenant, the Metro station at eight minutes and the airport at twelve carry the most weight. A tenant without a car can reach the Metro quickly, and a tenant who flies for work has the airport close by.

For a family, The Elite English School is twelve minutes away. Al Mamzar Beach is eight minutes from the building and La Mer Beach fifteen, with Jumeirah Public Beach at twenty.

Downtown Dubai and The Dubai Mall are 24 minutes from the building. Anyone who works in the city centre should count that journey twice a day before choosing the island.

The layout of the island, its beaches and the wider masterplan are covered in our Dubai Islands investment guide. Every project we publish on the island is listed on the Dubai Islands projects page.

Payment terms

Imtiaz Developments' payment plan for Sunset Bay 3 asks for 20% on booking. Five instalments follow during construction, of 5%, 5%, 10%, 10% and 10%. The last 40% falls due on completion, which the developer gives as February 2027.

The 40% due on completion is the largest payment in the plan, so it is the one to plan for first. A buyer who intends to fund it with a mortgage should speak to a lender well before the building is finished.

For how this structure compares with the other plans in the Dubai market, see our guide to off-plan payment plans in Dubai. For the steps from reservation to handover, see how to buy off-plan property in Dubai.

Homes

Imtiaz Developments builds three home types at Sunset Bay 3. The brochure describes the apartments as fully furnished.

One-bedroom, 30 homes, 943.92 to 1,047 sq ft. The entry point in the building. The floor plans draw two one-bedroom layouts, and four one-bedroom homes sit on each of the first seven residential floors. The eighth floor carries two more.

Two-bedroom, 32 homes, 1,347.64 to 2,193.39 sq ft. The largest group in the building. The floor plans draw two two-bedroom layouts. Four two-bedroom homes sit on each of the first seven residential floors, and four more on the eighth. The largest two-bedroom home is bigger than the three-bedroom, so compare the specific unit before you compare the type.

Three-bedroom, 1 home, 2,058.06 sq ft. The only three-bedroom apartment in the building, on the eighth floor. It shares that floor with two one-bedroom and four two-bedroom homes.

The sizes above are the range Imtiaz Developments prints for each type on its factsheet, with the decimals as printed.

In depth

Detail, in the order it was written

Amenities

Imtiaz Developments' factsheet and brochure list the same amenities for the building:

  • Clubhouse
  • Gym
  • Jacuzzi
  • Sunken lounge
  • Water lounges
  • Floating islands
  • Water feature
  • Outdoor dining and BBQ area
  • Outdoor shower
  • Outdoor yoga
  • Seating zone
  • Meeting area
  • Private terrace
  • Ping pong table
  • Kids' playground

The floor plans place the clubhouse and the gym on the second podium floor. The brochure also lists EV charging stations for the building.

For an owner who lets the apartment, the water lounges, the meeting area and the clubhouse give a tenant reasons to use the building beyond the gym. Families with children have the kids' playground and the ping pong table.

Dubai Islands

Imtiaz Developments' brochure and factsheet give these figures for Dubai Islands as a whole:

Dubai Islands As stated by Imtiaz Developments
Beachfront 21 km, with Blue Flag Global Accreditation
Marinas 9, including 6 on Island A
Hotels and resorts 86
Golf courses 2, of 18 and 9 holes
Parks and open space 1.98 million sq m

Imtiaz Developments' Sunset Bay 3 brochure and factsheet, which give the same figures.

For a resident, the beachfront and the parks are what gets used every week. For a short-let investor, the 86 hotels and resorts show how far the island is built around visitors.

Building

Imtiaz Developments' brochure describes Sunset Bay 3 as a ground floor, two podium car-parking levels, eight residential floors and a roof. The floor plans draw each level in turn.

  • Ground floor. Landscaping and service rooms.
  • First podium floor. Car parking.
  • Second podium floor. Car parking, the clubhouse and the gym.
  • First to seventh floors. Eight homes on each floor, four one-bedroom and four two-bedroom.
  • Eighth floor. Seven homes: two one-bedroom, four two-bedroom and the building's one three-bedroom.
  • Roof. The rooftop floor, drawn on its own plan.

Residents park inside the building, on the two podium levels. Every apartment sits above the parking.

Handover

Imtiaz Developments gives completion as February 2027. The month appears on the factsheet and on the payment plan, where the 40% completion payment is tied to it.

The Dubai Land Department recorded construction at 60.04% at its inspection of 17 September 2026. Before handover, a buyer settles the completion payment and inspects the apartment for snagging. An investor can start looking for the first tenant.

For selling a unit before handover, our guide to pre-handover assignment in Dubai sets out how it works.

DLD record

The Dubai Land Department registers Sunset Bay 3 as project 3604, "Sunset Bay Three By Imtiaz". The register files it in its Palm Deira district, the register's name for the Dubai Islands area. It records the project as active and under construction, with 63 units in one building, a start date of 20 March 2025 and a planned completion date of 20 March 2027. Its inspection of 25 June 2026 put construction at 38.26%, and its inspection of 17 September 2026 at 60.04%. The escrow agent on the register is First Abu Dhabi Bank.

Registered evidence · as at 31 Mar 2026

Every figure below is derived from arm’s-length sales registered with the Dubai Land Department — completed transactions, not asking prices. The register was read on 27 Sep 2026. The most recent qualifying sale at Sunset Bay 3 is dated 31 Mar 2026. Medians are of AED per square foot across all unit types unless stated otherwise.

Premium and discount compare Sunset Bay 3’s median AED/sqft with each benchmark median from the same extract; n is the number of registered sales behind each median. A premium is neither good nor bad in itself — it reflects specification, unit mix, floor level and how recently the sales were registered. Bar length is proportional to the median shown.

Method & questions

Method

Figures as at 31 Mar 2026

Two different things sit on this page: transaction evidence taken from the Dubai Land Department’s public register, and the mechanics of buying in Dubai. The four notes below explain how the figures were built and what they can fairly be used for.

  1. Registered salesEvery Dubai Land Department figure on this page comes from a sale that completed and was entered on the public register, so it tells you what buyers have paid. A developer’s price list tells you what the developer is asking today, which is a different measure, so asking prices, portal listings and price lists are not counted in these figures.
  2. MediansProject samples are often thin, and a single penthouse or one bulk-discounted floor will pull an average a long way off. The median — the middle transaction — describes the typical unit far more reliably at these sample sizes. The count behind each figure is always shown so you can judge how much weight it deserves.
  3. Sales only“Sales” means arm’s-length sales. Intra-family and other “Gift” transfers are excluded, as are rows registered at zero or nominal consideration, because neither is evidence of a market price.
  4. A dated snapshotThese are a snapshot, stated as at 31 Mar 2026, taken from one extract of the register rather than queried live. A figure for this project quoted elsewhere, or taken from a different extract, may not match what you see here.
