DAMAC Hills vs DAMAC Hills 2
DAMAC Hills 2 (formerly Akoya Oxygen) is a separate community further from Dubai city. The original DAMAC Hills has better location, more established infrastructure, and stronger resale liquidity. DAMAC Hills 2 offers lower entry but longer commute and thinner secondary market.
DRE Verdict
DAMAC Hills delivers solid apartment yields with a distinctive golf lifestyle. Build quality has improved post-2020. The Trump branding is a consideration for some international buyers. Secondary market is active. Best for investors comfortable with the DAMAC brand who want golf-adjacent returns at mid-market entry prices.
