Mandarin Oriental Residences at Saadiyat Island by Aldar brings one of the world’s most respected hospitality names to the Saadiyat Cultural District on Saadiyat Island. Developed by Aldar, the project comprises 216 furnished residences from one to five bedrooms across two G+9 towers, with sizes from 1,122 sq ft and a starting price of AED 7,285,952. It combines Mandarin Oriental’s hospitality and bespoke service with local cultural elements and authentic materials, creating homes that are both luxurious and distinctly connected to their setting.

The residences are designed for buyers who value service, privacy and culture in equal measure. Furnished interiors, thoughtful layouts and a setting beside natural beaches and mangroves give the homes a calm, resort-like character, while the cultural district around them adds museums, galleries and curated retail and dining. Handover is scheduled for Q3 2028, and the project is offered on a 65/35 payment plan, with 35% payable on booking, 30% during construction and 35% on handover.

Private beach access is central to life here. Residents can step from their tower to the sand, enjoy the island’s natural coastline, and return to the services and comfort of a Mandarin Oriental address. Close to the Zayed National Museum, Louvre Abu Dhabi, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and the Natural History Museum, the residences place world-class culture within easy reach, while Saadiyat’s beaches, mangroves and leisure facilities offer a quieter, more natural side to island living.

About Mandarin Oriental Residences

The concept pairs Mandarin Oriental’s approach to hospitality with the character of Saadiyat Island. Bespoke service, attention to detail and a calm, refined atmosphere run through the residences, while local cultural elements and authentic materials give the interiors warmth and a sense of place. Across two G+9 towers, the 216 furnished residences range from one to five bedrooms, so the project suits couples, families and buyers seeking a larger residence in a cultural and coastal setting.
