What the Baccarat Hotel & Residences Dubai handover date means for payments
The plan is 5% on booking, 15% on the SPA, four instalments of 10% at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after the SPA, and 40% on completion (Off Plan Bazaar). The four 10% instalments run on the calendar, so most buyers reach 60% paid well before completion. The 40% balance, about AED 9.6 million on a 3 bedroom at the AED 23.9 million registered median, falls due only when the building is completed.
What to check before relying on the Baccarat Hotel & Residences Dubai date
- Which phase the SPA refers to. Phase 1 material quoted Q4 2026; Property Finder gives Q4 2027 for Phase 2.
- The SPA completion date and grace period, since the registered 29 December 2026 date will pass with the project far from finished.
- The construction pace. Continental Club measures about 1.11 points a month over the past year; reaching completion by December 2027 would need about 5 points a month.
