Saadiyat Island · Taraf Holding
Layouts and the handover date come from the sales-launch announcement; the date of that announcement is shown next to the prices. It is what the developer claimed at launch, not a registry record — off-plan, phasing and dates get revised. I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
Located in Saadiyat Island, currently under construction. Developer — Taraf Holding.
Specifications for Solea by Taraf as published by the developer — the project is under construction, so there is no Land Department record yet. They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.
Solea by Taraf is a residential complex of several buildings in Saadiyat Island, handover is due Q2 2028.
The developer is Taraf Holding.
The tallest tower rises 7 storeys. Layouts, according to the sales-launch announcement — 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedrooms.
The database has nothing for this project at the moment: lots come and go here, and it refreshes nightly.
Four seven-storey blocks by Taraf Holding in Saadiyat Lagoons on Saadiyat Island: one- to four-bedroom apartments, launch pricing from AED 1.75 million, handover stated for Q2 2028.
Solea sits within Saadiyat Lagoons on Saadiyat Island — Abu Dhabi's cultural core, close to the Louvre, the future Guggenheim and the Zayed National Museum.
The format is four blocks of seven storeys each, with one- to four-bedroom apartments overlooking the lagoons and the bay. The developer is Taraf Holding, the development arm of YAS Holding.
Terms: launch pricing from AED 1.75 million, a 40/60 payment plan — forty percent during construction, sixty on completion — with handover in Q2 2028.
Saadiyat is being built out with two distinct products: ultra-high-end waterfront branded residences, and mid-rise standard housing. Solea belongs to the second category, and an entry price from AED 1.75 million is noticeably below what's asked for on the waterfront.
Seven storeys instead of a tower means fewer neighbours per entrance and less strain on the lifts — but also fewer comparable units to benchmark against at resale.
The project came from a Taraf factsheet. Block composition, storey count, launch price, payment plan and delivery date — public materials from Taraf Holding.
The stock refreshes every night, and lots here appear and go. Message me — I will check the closed bases and suggest the nearest alternatives in Saadiyat Island.
Ask about this projectThe 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.

7 — that is the tallest building of the complex.
The sales-launch announcement says Q2 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom, according to the sales-launch announcement. Which sizes are actually free right now depends on what is on the market; I will send the current list.
No open lots for the building today. I will check the price of the layout you are after in the closed databases and send it with every cost of the deal worked out.
What has been written about the building, its developer and Saadiyat Island
Two branded launches on Saadiyat six months apart: Aldar’s Mandarin Oriental Residences (about 228 homes, designed by BIG, from AED 6.2m, Q3 2028) and Nord’s Henge Residences (166 homes, from AED 1.1m, 2028). Guggenheim Abu Dhabi opens on 11 December 2026.
Abu Dhabi’s cultural cluster is gaining an arts centre designed by Frank Gehry, standing alongside Louvre Abu Dhabi and the future Guggenheim. What museums do to property prices around them.
Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi is getting one of the region’s largest cultural centres — an opera, ballet and theatre complex designed by the architect behind the Guggenheim Bilbao.
Aldar brings the Baccarat brand to Abu Dhabi’s residential market: 77 residences in Saadiyat’s cultural district — two- and three-bedroom apartments, four-bedroom sky villas and two signature penthouses.
Two premium Aldar launches on Saadiyat: Nobu Residences (88 homes, November 2023, from about AED 7m) and The Source Terraces designed by BIG (June 2024, from about AED 3m). Both are sold out and due in 2027 — so the only way in now is a resale contract.
Three weekend escapes from Dubai: the east coast at Khor Fakkan and Fujairah, 1.5–2 hours by car and now reachable by Etihad Rail from Abu Dhabi; and Saadiyat, where the Louvre is joined by new museums and the Guggenheim opens on 11 December 2026. What each tells a property buyer.
The concluding part of the island’s master plan — 6.4 million square metres, the largest marina in Abu Dhabi, hotels and culture. What is significant is not the scheme but that an entire island is being completed.
I will tell you which layouts are available now, what entry really costs and what the people who live in or let the building think of it — no marketing language.
