Al Reem Island
Photos and renders of the building and grounds — not of this particular unit.
Layouts and the handover date come from the developer's brochure in our archive. Prices and payment plans from the same source are deliberately not published: they are dated to when the brochure was issued and do not match today's prices. I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
A residential building in Al Reem Island, currently under construction.
Specifications for A1LA Residence per Propsearch and the Dubai Land Department. They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.
A1LA Residence is a residential building in Al Reem Island, handover is due Q4 2028.
The database currently holds 1 lot in this project, from 2 645 450 AED; 1 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 4%.
A 20-storey complex on Al Reem Island, Abu Dhabi, steps from Sorbonne University and international schools. Apartments and duplexes, entry from US$578,000, an infinity pool on the roof.
Apartments: one-bedroom from 88 square metres, two-bedroom from 115, three-bedroom from 178. Duplexes: two-bedroom from 162 square metres, three-bedroom from 204. Prices are quoted from US$578,000, roughly US$6,600 per square metre on the smallest unit.
A one-bedroom from 88 square metres is a very spacious format — in Dubai that much space is a full two-bedroom. Abu Dhabi traditionally builds larger, and that's worth accounting for when comparing prices between the emirates: the square metre is cheaper here, but there are more of them in a unit.
Within walking distance are three educational institutions at once — the Sorbonne branch, Repton and Nord Anglia. It's around twenty minutes to the museum district with the Louvre and Zayed National Museum, and five minutes to Reem Mall.
Proximity to universities and schools generates steady rental demand from faculty and families of students. That's demand for long-term rentals rather than short stays — a lower peak rate, but almost no vacancy.
Downstairs: pools, sports courts and landscaping; upstairs, a rooftop with an infinity pool and a lounge around a fire pit. The building has a residents' club, a gym, dedicated yoga and pilates studios, and a cinema room. The finish is light-toned, and windows face the sea.
Selling-side materials for the sales launch: sizes, entry price, surroundings and infrastructure composition. Price per square metre is our own calculation.
The final payment on this building falls in 2028 — under off-plan plans that is 40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security, and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.
Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and we will look at what the developer will accept.
Ask on WhatsAppThe developer's brochure says Q4 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
The database currently holds 1 lot in this project, from 2 645 450 AED; 1 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 4%. Prices move every day, so it is worth asking for the current list for this building.
What has been written about the building, its developer and Al Reem Island
ADGM has covered Al Reem Island since 2023. By H1 2026 it had 13 974 active licences, 190 asset managers (+23%), 276 funds (+32%), AUM up 54% and 49 027 people working in the district. Why that matters for Al Reem landlords.
Al Reem now has two branded schemes: the world’s first standalone Radisson Residences (phase one, AED 1.2bn, sold within a day; phase two with 437 furnished units in September 2026) and 386 Rixos residences by East & West, one-bedrooms from about AED 2.1m, completing Q1 2029.
Abu Dhabi has launched FIDA, a cluster for fintech, insurance and digital assets targeting AED 56 billion in added GDP and 8 000 jobs by 2045. We look at how it extends ADGM and who it matters to.
Since 2 June 2026 Abu Dhabi has cut the permitted annual rent rise from 5% to 0% for homes, offices and industrial units, until further notice — still in force in September. ADGM communities on Al Reem and Al Maryah islands are excluded and follow their own rules.
Two neighbouring Abu Dhabi islands, two different entry strategies: Radiant Garden on Al Reem starts from AED 548 000 with a late-2026 handover, while St. Regis The Residences on Al Maryah is a Marriott-branded tower priced from AED 4.6 million, due in 2028.
Mered has entered Abu Dhabi with a 240 000 sqm waterfront project on Oval Bay, designed by Swiss firm Herzog & de Meuron, complete with a private marina. Handover is set for March 2029; deep-foundation works began in spring 2026.
Aldar (60%) and Mubadala (40%) will develop the last major plot on Al Maryah: 1.5m sqm of space, 450 000+ sqm of Grade A offices, 3 000+ homes and three new bridges, with a GDV above AED 60bn. What it means for Al Reem and Saadiyat owners.
