Hudayriyat Island: Al Naseem and Nawayef

About Hudayriyat Island

Hudayriyat is a 51 million sqm island built around sport and the outdoors, ten minutes from central Abu Dhabi. Beyond the Golf Estates, Modon’s villa and townhouse communities here include Al Naseem, the Nawayef hillside villages and Wadeem Gardens.

My take

• Suits: Buyers who want Abu Dhabi’s busiest island: it took 27% of the emirate’s home sales value in early 2026.
• What I'd check: Seven communities with very different prices and handover dates, so compare them side by side. Al Naseem was Abu Dhabi’s top villa project in early 2026, with 448 sales.

What's there

• 4.5 km of coastline with beach clubs
• 75 km cycling network
• Surf Abu Dhabi, ziplines and adventure park
• More than 40 restaurants and cafés

Where it is

• About 10 minutes to central Abu Dhabi over a dedicated bridge
