All vikisMaterials and Finishes
Nakheel's material boards for Palm Springs name what each surface is used for in the villas and townhouses, ten items for the 4 and 5 bedroom villas and eleven for the 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses.
Nakheel's two material boards, released for the Nov 9, 2026 launch, photograph the samples for each home type and say where each goes. They name locations, not brands or products.

How the two compare
Reading the two lists side by side, the villas give the master bathroom its own accent wall and carry the general floor finish into the master bathroom. The townhouses share one floor and wall finish across the master and secondary bathrooms, and use one countertop for both kitchen and bathrooms where the villas specify the two separately. The townhouse board also lists two different kitchen shutter finishes.
We think the villa board's marble-look kitchen sample and travertine-look floor are what a buyer should ask to see in a physical show home, because Nakheel's photographs cannot show how the real surfaces wear.
