Sunset Bay Grand is one of only two Imtiaz projects in the entire 41 project portfolio where the developer publishes starting prices. That alone makes it the easiest building in the range to underwrite, and it is the one to use as your benchmark when a broker quotes you a number on any of the others.

Every figure above is taken from Imtiaz’s own project page unless stated otherwise. Where the developer publishes nothing we say so rather than filling the gap with a number from a listings portal.
The payment plan
20 per cent on booking, then 5, 5, 10, 10, 5 and 5 per cent instalments between February 2026 and July 2027, then 40 per cent on completion.
Remember the Dubai Land Department transfer fee of 4 per cent is payable on top of the purchase price, along with a AED 250 title deed fee and roughly AED 4,000 plus VAT to the registration trustee on any sale above AED 500,000. Those are the DLD’s published figures and they apply to every property purchase in Dubai.
What is actually there
Sky pool and a separate family pool, cabanas, sunken seating, a double height gym, clubhouse, outdoor cinema, barbecue area and a kids zone.
Dubai Islands in short
Dubai Islands is Nakheel’s five island scheme off Deira, carrying more than 20 km of beach including a Blue Flag certified stretch. Imtiaz is the most active residential developer on it and states the island portfolio is worth more than AED 6 billion.
Our read on Sunset Bay Grand by Imtiaz
One bedroom from AED 1.95 million on Dubai Islands is the number to hold on to. It tells you where Imtiaz thinks the island sits, and it lets you sanity check every unpriced building in the portfolio. The payment plan is also fully published, six instalments between February 2026 and July 2027 with 40 per cent held to completion, which is a genuinely staged plan rather than a front loaded one. At 12 per cent complete this is the earliest stage building in the Sunset Bay line, so you are buying time as much as space.
Residency
The ten year UAE Golden Visa threshold is AED 2 million of property and it did not change in 2026. Separately, in April 2026 the minimum property value for the two year investor visa was removed for sole owners, and the joint ownership floor came down to AED 400,000 per investor. Whether a specific unit here clears the Golden Visa threshold depends on the unit, so ask us to check it against the price you are actually being quoted.

Source: Dubai Land Department open data. Registered sales of residential units between 30 June 2026 and 18 August 2026. Mortgages and gift transfers are excluded because they are not arms length sales. Sizes are converted from square metres at 10.7639 sq ft per sq m. The entry price shown for this project is our advertised starting price and is not a registered transaction. Community figures are medians across every project in the community, not this project alone. We do not publish a price per square foot for this project because advertised size ranges are not a reliable basis for that calculation.
