Sunset Bay 5 — Dubai Islands
(by Imtiaz Developments)
Overview
Looking for an island calm without disappearing off the map? Sunset Bay by Imtiaz Developments gives you that, the water, the breeze, the skyline in the distance, wrapped in an 8-storey building that feels boutique but lives big. It’s Imtiaz doing what they do best: fully finished, well-detailed homes that don’t need a decorator on speed dial.
Address & Setting
You’re on Sunset Bay by Imtiaz Developments at Dubai Islands: beaches, marinas, future retail and wellness nodes, all stitched together with easy city access. Airport runs are painless (~12 min to DXB), La Mer ~15 min, Downtown ~20–24 min depending on the lights. Weekdays are efficient; weekends can be flip-flops and long sunsets.
Luxury Residences
A compact, useful mix, nothing you don’t need, everything you do.
- 1, 2 & 3-bedroom apartments + penthouses
- Sizes: approx. 965–2,009 sq ft
- Starting from: ~AED 1.8–1.9M
Plans lean wide, not deep, living/dining flows to the balcony, bedrooms tuck away from the hum, and kitchens have legit counter runs (espresso, kettle, air fryer without a cable tango).
Building Design & Finish
The stack is G + 2 podium + 5 typical floors, modern coastal lines, and glazing that actually earns the sea views. Interiors go soft-neutral with plush furnishings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and joinery you won’t want to rip out. Balconies are sized to be used, not just posed on.
World Class Amenities (resort energy, resident-first)
Leisure & Sky Deck
- Sky pool with water lounges and floating “islands”
- Rooftop gardens, sunken lounges, outdoor cinema
- Outdoor yoga + outdoor shower for the post-beach rinse
- Private beach/marina access
Wellness & Social
- Fully equipped gym, clubhouse, landscaped terraces
- BBQ areas, kids’ playground, Zen garden
There’s variety without tipping service charges into “why is my pool doing the accounting?”
Payment & Handover
- Plan: 60/40 overall → 20% booking • 40% during construction • 40% on handover
- Handover: Q4 2027
That runway lets you time cash flows and plan fit-out without drama.
Who Shortlists This
- End-users who want beach access and a quiet building, and want to Buy Off Plan Property in UAE or invest
- Lock-and-leave owners who value a fully finished spec with hotel-adjacent convenience.
- Investors targeting island scarcity + airport proximity for healthy occupancy.
Shortlist Checklist (do this on site)
- View cone — step onto the balcony and frame your sightline: water, marina, or neighbour? Avoid stacks where fins nibble the view.
- Sun test — visit at noon and blue hour; check glare inside and balcony comfort when the wind drops.
- Balcony “tape test” — mark space for table + two chairs and a 1.0–1.2 m pass; if you can’t move, you won’t dine there.
- Acoustics — by the glazing, a/c on low: listen for soft HVAC, not hiss.
- Kitchen workflow — plug points where you actually prep; confirm venting type and fridge swing clearance.
- Lift reality — ride at 8:30 a.m. to see true wait times.
- Service charges — ask AED/sq-ft and inclusions (beach ops, rooftop staffing, security); model owner vs. landlord scenarios with a vacancy buffer.
- Parking & EV — confirm allocation, guest bays, and charger readiness; measure for SUV + stroller + board bag.
