Al Hudayriyat Island has transformed into one of Abu Dhabi’s most dynamic destinations, combining luxury residential developments, sports facilities and beachfront leisure under a master plan by Modon Holding that has generated billions in real estate sales.
ABU DHABI: Al Hudayriyat Island has emerged as one of Abu Dhabi’s most compelling urban success stories, evolving from an isolated location into a fully integrated destination that blends luxury living, sport and beachfront leisure within just a few years. Developed by Modon Holding under a master plan that capitalises on its strategic waterfront position, the island is directly connected to Abu Dhabi through a modern road network, ensuring seamless accessibility while preserving its natural character.
The island’s planning places strong emphasis on active and sustainable living, with expansive open spaces, extended waterfronts, and dedicated walking and cycling tracks forming the backbone of its lifestyle offering. Seasonal events, sporting competitions and community activities hosted on the island continue to stimulate economic activity and attract investors, reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a destination that blends premium leisure with sustainable development.
On the residential front, the island has seen a remarkable run of sellout launches. In May 2025, Modon introduced the first collection of townhouses within Nawayef Village, a gated community inspired by Tuscany’s architecture. All 378 units sold out, generating approximately AED 2 billion in sales.
July 2025 saw the launch of Wadeem, the island’s first residential land plot development, which sold out entirely at AED 5.5 billion. December 2025 brought Bashayer, the first waterfront residential community on the island, generating AED 3 billion in sales.
Modon also awarded construction contracts for Nawayef East and Nawayef West totalling AED 5 billion, marking the largest residential contract ever awarded in Abu Dhabi.
