Al Reem Island is a vibrant natural island just off Abu Dhabi’s northeastern coast—about 600 m from the mainland—spanning roughly 8.8 km². A master-planned waterfront community, it seamlessly blends residential skyscrapers, commercial towers, gated districts, and retail hubs, all connected to downtown via multiple bridges and major highways.


The skyline, punctuated by iconic high-rises like the Gate Towers, Sky and Sun towers, Marina Heights, and OceanScape, offers sweeping views of the Arabian Gulf and Abu Dhabi city.

Al Reem supports a live–work–play lifestyle: business hubs, office complexes, and branded residences sit alongside abundant amenities including schools, universities, parks, gyms, healthcare clinics, and multiple malls—such as Reem Mall (with 400+ stores and a snow park) and Shams Boutik Mall.


Green spaces are plentiful—Reem Central Park is a massive communal area with playgrounds, sports courts, and promenades—while shoreline walkways and private beach areas add to the island’s appeal. It's also pet-friendly with parks suitable for dogs, and residential towers offering pools, gyms, and community clubs .

Demographically, Al Reem draws families, young professionals, investors, and expatriates, thanks to its diverse housing options—from studios and apartments to penthouses, duplexes, townhouses, and upscale villas—along with competitive rental yields and strong investment momentum.

Though some new developments are still underway, meaning occasional construction noise, most infrastructure and key services are already in place . For long-stay convenience, the island lies roughly 20 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport and just minutes from cultural and business hubs like Al Maryah, Saadiyat, and Yas Islands.
