Aldar has announced its partnership with Mandarin Oriental, the award-winning owner and operator of some of the world’s most luxurious hotels, resorts and residences, to develop Abu Dhabi’s first Mandarin Oriental branded residences on Saadiyat Island.
Set to launch for sale later in 2024, Mandarin Oriental Residences will consist of 228 premium homes that will epitomize luxury through exquisite design and the legendary service that has defined Mandarin Oriental as one of the world’s most prestigious hospitality brands.
The exclusive development sits within Saadiyat Cultural District overlooking the soaring falcon wings of Zayed National Museum and will be within walking distance of Louvre Abu Dhabi, the forthcoming Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi and Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. Mandarin Oriental Residences will have access to 3,500 sqm of premium dining spaces along the Zayed National Museum promenade, with a further 60,000 sqm of experiential retail, entertainment and leisure options located at the nearby Saadiyat Grove. Residents will also enjoy seamless access to the cultural richness of the nearby museums, complemented by breathtaking fountain views.
Saadiyat Island is a vibrant and sophisticated destination, offering a blend of pristine beaches, luxury resorts, and world-class fine dining. Renowned for its cultural attractions and stunning natural beauty, it provides an unforgettable experience for visitors seeking relaxation or excitement.
The partnership comes as demand for branded residences is experiencing sustained growth in Abu Dhabi, with a penthouse within one of Aldar’s branded residential developments on Saadiyat Island setting a record transaction for Abu Dhabi earlier this year, selling for AED 137 million.
