The latest DLD inspection, on 2 June 2026, recorded 76.05% complete.

St. Regis Residences Downtown Dubai handover date: the latest position

The DLD project register holds a registered completion date of 25 December 2026 for St. Regis The Residences, and Emaar’s handover date is Q4 2026. Prices, sizes and the payment plan are on the St. Regis Residences Downtown Dubai page.

The latest DLD inspection, on 2 June 2026, recorded 76.05% complete. Progress averaged about 3 points a month over the previous year, and Continental Club’s projection from that pace reaches 100% around 26 January 2027. That projection is arithmetic, not a revised date from Emaar.

St. Regis Residences Downtown Dubai handover date by building

The register lists DLD project 1816 as 3 buildings with 1,108 units, under one progress figure and one date. Sales records name Tower 1 and Tower 2.

2 Jun 2026 DLD inspection records 76.05% DLD register

The handover date has been given as Q4 2026 throughout. Property Finder’s project page still has one line saying Q4 2025, which conflicts with the rest of that page and with the register. The register also gives 28 February 2017 as the construction start, an early land date that predates the 2022 launch.

What the St. Regis Residences Downtown Dubai handover date means for payments

The plan is 10% at booking, 60% in eight instalments during construction and 30% on handover (Property Finder; Dubizzle). On a 1 bedroom at the DLD median of AED 2,350,000 the handover payment is about AED 705,000. On a 2 bedroom at AED 3,541,888 it is about AED 1,062,566 (Continental Club, register updated 8 October 2026). With the registered date in late December, that payment may fall in early 2027 if the trend estimate proves right.

What to check before relying on the St. Regis Residences Downtown Dubai date

  1. The completion date and grace period in the SPA, compared with 25 December 2026 in the register.
  2. The next DLD inspection. A figure near 90% would support a December finish.
  3. Emaar’s handover notice for the specific tower, since the 30% payment and any mortgage drawdown follow that notice.
