There hasn't been much update on Durrat Al Bahrain but Google Streetview was updated in November 2024 and you can now see a lot more of the houses etc that line the islands.
Struggling to find how much work is still to do and Google Earth has not been updated since July 2024 so these are the most recent aerials I can find. There are still two islands without construction.

Construction phases 1,2,3 were completed. Phase 4 is underway with the islands of Atoll 5 and Atoll 6 to complete by building more than 200 villas on each island.
The total areas of Atolls 5 and 6 are 222,000 and 239,000 square meters respectively. The area of land per villa is between 620 and 720 square meters, depending on its location and view.
