Dubai Lagoons is large masterplanned residential community by Damac Properties involving the convertion of over 400 hectares into ‘a Mediterranean-inspired community with white sandy beaches, a tropical island vibe and other enchanting experiences, and aesthetically-designed villas and townhouses built around stunning lagoons’.

The masterplan is divided into eight Mediterranean-inspired communities, each named after a town or region such as Santorini in Greece and Portofino in Italy.

Each community has a “hub” theme which indicates the theme of the community amenities that are located there. The eight communities are:
