Damac Hills 2

Damac Hills 2 (formerly known as Akoya and before that, Akoya Oxygen) - is a new, secluded residential development being developed by Damac Properties. It is located in the desert of south DubaiLand, about 40 minutes drive from the city centre. As of June 2021 many of the residential communities are complete while the bulk of the leisure districts and amenities are still yet to be built.

The Damac Hills 2 community is promised to offer cleaner air, naturally cooler temperatures, and a carefully designed master plan and road network system designed to reduce pollution, with dedicated spaces for bicycles and hybrids.

Homes feature energy efficient materials, air conditioning, lighting and controls, along with low-emission paints and solar water heating systems. Refuse will be separated for recycling where possible.

There is a wide variety of villa types on offer ranging from three to six bedrooms including Oleander, Celosia, Rivina, Aknan, Aurum, Biela, Cuatro, Hajar, Imagine, Mod Townhouses, Bughatti Villas, Just Cavalli Villas and Uno Premier Villas.

History and development

The project started out as a resurrection of the 2006 Tiger Woods-Dubai project originally proposed by Tatweer. Construction of the golf course and club house started but the project went on hold in 2009 due the global financial crisis before being cancelled entirely in 2011.

The land and the commercial agreement with Tiger Woods was bought up by Damac Properties in 2014 and re-branded as Akoya Oxygen.

The golf club was changed to 'Trump World Golf Club Dubai' with the course designed by world famous golf champion Tiger Woods.

Later, a waterfront retail, hotel and leisure complex called Vista Lux was added to the project.
