03 The first residential community

A New Chapter
of Saadiyat

Saadiyat Island has spent two decades becoming the cultural address of the Gulf. Marsa Al Saadiyat is its final chapter.

Unveiled in July 2026, the AED 100 billion waterfront destination activates the last phase of the island's masterplan. Talay and Talay Beach are its first homes.

Three hundred and fifty-one standalone villas. A landscaped green spine at the centre. Beach access at the edge. And around them, a district designed for more than 58,000 residents, Abu Dhabi's largest marina and a direct connection to Saadiyat Cultural District.

Design & architecture

Contemporary Form.
Emirati Memory.

Talay is built around a single idea: the garden comes first.

A landscaped green spine runs through the community. Falaj-inspired water channels trace it. Shaded seating, an outdoor majlis pavilion and a garden with kitchen facilities sit along it. The children's play spaces are maritime in theme, a nod to the island's fishing past.

The villas are standalone, private and glazed to the garden. Their contemporary architecture is softened by bespoke louvre details created in collaboration with Emirati artist Abdalla Almulla, whose commissioned fountain also anchors the public realm. Boundaries reference the traditional areesh; interiors read in natural, low-contrast materials.

Interior palette options and finish specifications: subject to official release.

Investment case

Why Investors Are Watching
Marsa Al Saadiyat

No projections. No promises. Ten facts about position, product and pipeline that an investor should weigh.

  1. 01Location

    Saadiyat Island is Abu Dhabi's cultural address. Marsa Al Saadiyat is its last major land release.

  2. 02Scarcity

    351 standalone villas in the first phase. Standalone villa supply on Saadiyat is finite by geography.

  3. 03Positioning

    Saadiyat commands the island premium in Abu Dhabi. Talay sits inside its newest masterplan.

  4. 04Masterplan

    AED 100 billion. ~6.4 million sqm. Infrastructure works from Q3 2026. A district, not a project.

  5. 05Developer

    Aldar. Abu Dhabi's largest listed developer and the master developer of Saadiyat and Yas.

  6. 06Waterfront

    8 km of coastline, 5.6 km of beaches and the emirate's largest marina in one destination.

  7. 07Infrastructure

    A planned underground Etihad Rail high-speed station within a transit-oriented hub.

  8. 08Culture

    The Cultural District already exists. Louvre Abu Dhabi, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and Zayed National Museum are neighbours, not promises.

  9. 09Demand

    Three schools in the masterplan and a planned population above 58,000 support an end-user market.

  10. 10Exit

    First-phase pricing inside a masterplan that will be released over years. The resale market forms behind you.
