Cuba at DAMAC Islands 2 Master Plan
Cuba at DAMAC Islands 2 is located within a larger, master ‑planned development that includes the broader DAMAC Islands 2 encompassing approximately 20 ‑ 21 million square feet, consisting of eight different theme clusters, each modelled as islands. These include the Bahamas, Bermuda, Tahiti, Barbados, Maui, Antigua, Mauritius and Cuba clusters.
The master plan will recreate a tropical, island-themed lifestyle in Dubai. It will connect areas with water features, including lagoons and beaches. Landscaped zones, promenades, pathways, and green spaces will link the community. Each area will have its own character and amenities, similar yet slightly different from the others. Dominated by low-density living, in order to capture open skies, natural airflow and a sense of space, the design also promotes the use of public green spaces, as opposed to high-rise blocks with intermittent townhouses or villas surrounding waterbodies or green belt areas.
Community comforts and features are not concentrated in one area. They are dispersed throughout the master plan. Each cluster, including Cuba, has access to lagoon waters and waterfronts. Residents also enjoy landscaped communal parks, promenades for walking, jogging, and cycling, and shared communal plazas.. This creates a neighbourhood atmosphere within a broader community, and access to water, nature and recreation, without long commute times.
Additionally, the design ethos interlaces urban quarters with ecological components. It includes water bodies, botanical gardens, and waterfront promenades. There are also private and public beaches. Connected pedestrian and cycling paths form the foundational elements of the proposed vision.
By blending nature with the built environment, the intention is to provide residents with a calm lifestyle. The focus revolves around wellness, outdoor living, and community. This is how the master plan offers homes and a complete living experience that includes comfort, nature, and lifestyle.
