Fahid Island · Abu Dhabi
The Beach House Fahid — studio to three bedrooms on the wellness island
Apartment
Investment thesis
Bets on an early entry into a certified new island between Yas and Saadiyat, with a wide price range from AED 1.8 M. Depends on how quickly 862 units and the rest of the island find tenants and buyers.
Description
862 units at the centre of Fahid Island, a quarter of an hour from Yas and just under 25 minutes from the airport. Studios from AED 1.8m, three-bedroom with maid’s room from 6.1m. 65/35 on a 10 % deposit, handover between Q2 and Q4 2029.
Why this property is on the list
- The price ladder is unusually wide: studios from AED 1.8m, one-bedroom from 2.9, two-bedroom from 4.1, with maid’s room from 4.8, three-bedroom with maid’s room from 6.1. The same address works as an entry purchase and as a family home.
- Fahid Island is the first Fitwel-certified island worldwide (3 stars), plus LEED for Cities and Communities Platinum pre-certified and Estidama 3 Pearl. Certificates do not replace due diligence, but they can be looked up — unlike the word "wellness" in a brochure.
- Fifteen minutes to Yas Island, just under 25 to Zayed International Airport, and about the same to Saadiyat. The island sits between the two addresses that made Abu Dhabi internationally known, not away from them.
What to keep in mind
The island is only now being built: school, clinic, marina, mall and beach club are in the masterplan, not yet on the ground. At handover in 2029 the surroundings will still be taking shape — which is the argument for entering early and against moving in quickly. And at 862 units, many comparable apartments reach the rental market at the same moment.
Who it suits – and who it does not
Suits
- Long-horizon buyers
- Anyone who wants to consider the same address as an entry point or as a family home
Less suited
- Anyone expecting a finished neighbourhood in 2029
- Anyone who wants to assume a high rent from the start
To clarify before reserving
- Service charges per square foot and what they cover
- The specific unit: floor, orientation, view, price
- When each instalment falls due and what applies in case of delay
- From what share paid a resale before handover is permitted
- Whether all payments go into the project’s escrow account
