DAMAC Properties' launch film for Sorrento: Mediterranean living, by the water, in Dubai.
Why Sorrento, and why now
DAMAC Lagoons was built around villas. With Sorrento, the lagoon becomes available as an apartment, at launch price.
- Lagoon living as an apartment : Until now, living at DAMAC Lagoons meant buying a villa or a townhouse. Sorrento opens the community to studios and 1-bedrooms: the same resort setting, a much lower entry ticket.
- A beach-resort lifestyle : Crystal lagoons, white-sand beaches, wave pool, lazy river, waterfalls, beach club and floating cinema: holiday living all year round, 30 minutes from Downtown.
- A community gaining value : DAMAC Lagoons prices are up about 50% since 2021 according to market data. The Dubailand corridor, Expo City and Al Maktoum airport (DWC) drive demand for the years ahead.
