Living The Mediterranean Dream: A Look Inside Dubai’s Stunning DAMAC Lagoons
Inspired by the most beautiful coastal destinations in the Mediterranean, DAMAC Lagoons has rapidly become one of Dubai’s most talked-about master communities. Spanning over 45 million square feet, this development by DAMAC Properties isn't just a place to live, it's a holiday destination you never have to leave.
With themed clusters, from the romantic canals of Venice to the white-washed streets of Santorini, the community offers a resort-style vibe that has captivated buyers and renters globally. In 2026, the community is moving from vision to reality, with handovers officially underway and the first residents moving into the Santorini cluster.
DAMAC Lagoons is also setting a new benchmark for sustainable living as the UAE's first pre-certified LEED Platinum community. This global gold standard for green building doesn't just benefit the environment; it is a strategic "Sustainability Edge" that directly enhances the resident experience and investor value.
What Does "Leed Platinum" Mean?
Choosing a LEED Platinum community ensures your home is a high-performance asset designed for the future. For residents and investors, this translates to:
- Lower utility bills: the integration of high-performance insulation, smart cooling systems, and passive design can reduce energy and water consumption by up to 40%.
- Healthier living: the certification mandates strict standards for indoor air quality, superior ventilation, and optimised natural light, creating a "wellness-first" environment.
- Future-proofed value: as eco-conscious living becomes a global priority, these sustainable assets typically maintain higher resale and rental premiums, protecting your investment long-term.
Where Is DAMAC Lagoons Located?
DAMAC Lagoons is strategically situated in Dubailand, directly opposite the established DAMAC Hills community. Located at the intersection of Hessa Street and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street, it offers rapid connectivity to Dubai’s key landmarks:
- Dubai Marina and Bluewaters: 20-25 minutes
- Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa: 30 minutes
- Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC): 25 minutes
- Expo City Dubai: 15-20 minutes
Its location on the "New Dubai" axis ensures that while you enjoy a serene, lagoon-side retreat, the city’s business and leisure hubs remain within easy reach.
What Kind Of Properties Can You Find In Damac Lagoons?
The diversity of architecture here is a primary draw for buyers, renters, and investors alike. Each cluster is designed to mirror a different European destination:
- For townhouse seekers: clusters like Santorini, Costa Brava, and Nice offer 3, 4, and 5-bedroom townhouses. These units feature bright, airy interiors and are positioned within walking distance of the central lagoons.
- For luxury villa buyers: the Venice and Morocco clusters are home to expansive 6 and 7-bedroom standalone villas. Many of these premium homes sit directly on the water’s edge with private jetties and "V-shaped" lagoon views.
- For investors: the newly launched Lagoon Views apartments provide a rare opportunity to own a 1 or 2-bedroom residence within a community primarily known for villas, offering high rental yield potential.
What Amenities Does Damac Lagoons Offer?
The community is built around the concept of "Water and Wellness," with each cluster hosting a unique "hub" of amenities. Residents don't just share a pool; they share an entire ecosystem of leisure:
- Water-based fun: crystal lagoons with white sandy beaches, a D-shaped lazy river, wave riding, kayaking, and even snorkelling.
- Entertainment: A floating amphitheatre, water cinema (outdoor movies by the lagoon), and waterside cafes.
- Adventure and fitness: ziplining over the water, rock climbing at the "Adrenaline Hub" in Costa Brava, and dedicated fitness centres.
- Relaxation: floating pods, a nature pond, and even an "Aqua Library" with waterproof books.
- Family life: On-site nurseries, a regional mall spanning 2 million square feet, and themed learning parks for children.
How Much Do Properties Cost In Damac Lagoons?
