These are Nakheel's target dates and can move.

DLD registered 714 sales in the 12 months to October 2026, 17% more than in the previous 12 months: 291 villas on the fronds and 423 apartments across Palm Central Buildings A, B and C.

Per square foot, yes. In the 12 months to October 2026, Palm Jebel Ali villas sold at a median of about AED 3,450 per sqft, against about AED 7,060 for villas on Palm Jumeirah (DLD). Palm Jebel Ali homes are off-plan with handovers from 2027, while Palm Jumeirah villas are ready, so the gap is partly the price of waiting.
