Mandarin Oriental Residences brings the legendary hospitality of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group to the heart of Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Cultural District. Developed by Aldar Properties in collaboration with one of the world’s most celebrated luxury brands, this landmark project introduces a collection of 226 exquisitely furnished branded residences set across two sculptural towers. The homes range from refined one bedroom apartments to expansive five bedroom penthouses, each delivering the five star service and sophistication that define the Mandarin Oriental name.
Every residence is a study in considered design, curated by New York based interior designer Lillian Wu. Natural materials and organic contours create a timeless appeal where light moves gently through each space. Rich, earthy woods bring warmth and character while subtle metal accents add a contemporary edge. The homes arrive fully furnished with meticulously detailed kitchens, generous balconies and a sense of calm that feels both opulent and deeply personal. Select residences feature private pools and extended terraces that frame uninterrupted views across the island and the Arabian Gulf.
Residents enjoy a curated collection of amenities that translate the five star hotel experience into everyday life. The exclusive Residents Club offers a state of the art health club, fitness studios and a dedicated yoga and wellness studio, alongside a spa with private treatment rooms. Leisure facilities include indoor and outdoor swimming pools, children’s pools and beautifully landscaped gardens, creating a serene retreat within the cultural quarter. Cinemas, game rooms, private dining rooms, communal working spaces, salons and opulent hotel style lobbies complete the offering, all supported by a dedicated concierge and a full suite of personalised services from housekeeping to private chefs.
Set within the Saadiyat Cultural District, the development places residents at the centre of Abu Dhabi’s most important arts destination. The island is home to the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the forthcoming Zayed National Museum and Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, placing world class culture a short walk from the front door. Pristine beaches, acclaimed schools, championship golf and luxury resorts are all within easy reach, while a dedicated bridge ensures effortless access to downtown Abu Dhabi.
The development comprises two towers configured as ground plus nine floors and is scheduled for handover in the third quarter of 2028. Average prices per residence type currently stand at around 6.2 million AED for one bedroom homes, 12.2 million AED for two bedroom homes, 16.6 million AED for two bedroom homes with maid, 25.2 million AED for three bedroom residences and 42.1 million AED for the larger three bedroom homes with private pool, while four bedroom residences and the signature five bedroom penthouses are available on request. A structured 65/35 payment plan supports the purchase, with ten percent on booking, a sequence of construction milestone instalments totalling 55 percent and the remaining 35 percent on completion.
Mandarin Oriental Residences represents a rare opportunity to own a branded home at one of Abu Dhabi’s most prestigious cultural addresses. Lux Abacus offers direct developer access, transparent guidance and priority selection across the available inventory, ensuring a seamless journey from first viewing to final handover.
