Luxury Mansion Sets Price Record in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi's luxury property market is experiencing a surge, highlighted by a Dh400 million mansion sale on Saadiyat Island, marking a significant residential deal in the emirate. This beachfront property, part of the 'Faya Al Saadiyat' community, features eight bedrooms and is located on one of the last remaining villa plots on the island. The sale underscores the sustained growth of Abu Dhabi's luxury real estate, driven by strong demand from high-net-worth individuals, long-term residents, and international investors.

This record-breaking sale follows the Dh137 million sale of Aldar’s Nobu Residences Abu Dhabi penthouse, also on Saadiyat Island. Aldar reported Dh5 billion in sales on Saadiyat Island during the first half of 2025. Expats accounted for 86% of buyers, with residents and non-residents contributing significantly, and buyers from Russia, France, the UK, China, and the US leading the charge.

The Dh400 million mansion, situated directly on Saadiyat Island’s beach and within the Saadiyat Beach Golf Club, boasts the largest space allocation on the island, spanning 6,561 square meters. According to Jonathan Emery, CEO at Aldar Development, Saadiyat Island continues to attract homebuyers and investors globally, solidifying its position as a crown jewel of Abu Dhabi’s luxury real estate.
