About Nobu Residences Saadiyat
Nobu Residences is an ultra-luxury branded development by Aldar and Nobu Hospitality on the beachfront of Saadiyat Island’s cultural district. Only 88 homes are planned, including one- to three-bedroom apartments, two-bedroom lofts, penthouses and villas.
The design blends Japanese and Arabic influences, with Nobu’s signature calm, natural materials and hotel-style services. Launch prices were from about AED 8 million on a 70/30 payment plan, with handover listed for late 2026 (some listings show Q4 2027), so completion is close.
Why buyers choose Nobu Residences Saadiyat
- A globally recognised hospitality brand with services such as concierge, housekeeping and laundry.
- Very limited supply: just 88 residences, which supports long-term exclusivity.
- Beachfront in the cultural district, close to Louvre Abu Dhabi and the new museums.
- Near completion, so buyers wait less time for handover than on a new launch.
Location and lifestyle
Saadiyat Island is Abu Dhabi’s cultural and beachfront address. The Saadiyat Cultural District is home to Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and Manarat Al Saadiyat, while the island’s white-sand beaches, golf, international schools and NYU Abu Dhabi make it one of the capital’s most sought-after places to live. Saadiyat is a freehold zone open to all nationalities.
Payment plan explained
Nobu Residences Saadiyat is offered on a 70/30 plan: roughly 70% is paid before or during construction and 30% on handover.
Who Nobu Residences Saadiyat suits
Ultra-high-net-worth buyers seeking a trophy home, collectors of branded residences, and investors targeting the top end of the Saadiyat market, where supply is scarce.
Golden Visa
Property purchases of AED 2 million and above can support an application for the UAE’s 10-year Golden Visa. Eligibility rules can change, so ask us to confirm the current criteria before you book.
Our tips before booking
- Because the project is near completion, ask whether units are sold by Aldar or as resales, as prices and payment terms differ.
- Budget for the Abu Dhabi registration fee and admin charges, which sit outside the unit price.
- Ask for the dated payment schedule so you can plan each instalment.
