Damac Hills, formerly known as Akoya by Damac, is a gated community built by Damac Properties around the Trump International Golf Club Dubai course, off Hessa Street (D61) and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) in the Dubailand area. The masterplan spans about 42 million square feet and combines villas and townhouses of two to six bedrooms with apartments from studio to three bedrooms.
Strengths
Limitations
Lifestyle
Life in Damac Hills is built around the 18-hole, par-71 Trump International Golf Club course at the heart of the community, opened in 2017, with a clubhouse offering restaurants, swimming pools and a fitness centre. The community also has its own park areas, tennis courts, football pitches and a skate park, and, unlike most Dubailand communities, Jebel Ali School has operated its own purpose-built campus inside Damac Hills since 2016.
Transport
Damac Hills has no metro station of its own. The community connects directly to Hessa Street (D61) and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), about a 10-minute drive from Sheikh Zayed Road; public transport inside the community is limited, and most residents rely on a car for daily trips.
Schools
Jebel Ali School (British curriculum, aligned with the National Curriculum of England, FS1 to Year 13, part of the Taaleem group) has operated its own purpose-built campus inside Damac Hills since 2016, alongside CreaKids Nursery School on the same site.
Healthcare
There is no hospital inside Damac Hills itself. Aster Clinic in Dubailand is about a 14-minute drive, with Citicare Medical Centre (about 17 minutes) and Mediclinic Parkview Hospital (about 22 minutes) covering specialist and emergency care further away.
