Talay, Marsa Al Saadiyat

The opening villa collection of Marsa Al Saadiyat, the final and most anticipated chapter of Saadiyat Island.

Saadiyat is the cultural heart of Abu Dhabi and one of the most prestigious addresses in the UAE. Louvre Abu Dhabi already stands here, joined across the Cultural District by Zayed National Museum, the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, teamLab Phenomena and the forthcoming Guggenheim Abu Dhabi.

Marsa Al Saadiyat completes the island's masterplan: an AED 100 billion waterfront district designed for more than 58,000 residents. Talay is its first collection of villas and, with beachfront land on Saadiyat so scarce, a release we are following with particular attention.

Why we're following it

• An AED 100 billion waterfront district
• Designed for more than 58,000 residents
• Moments from Saadiyat's beaches and Cultural District
