The Beach House Fahid

The Beach House Fahid is an apartment development by Aldar in the middle of Fahid Island, the new island community between Yas and Saadiyat. With 880 units of studio to three-bedroom homes plus shops, it is the largest of the island's first three residential launches. Aldar describes some homes as having partial views of the sea and the Abu Dhabi skyline, and it is worth taking that word at face value: this is not the beachfront row. What the location gives instead is a short walk to the shoreline, the landscaped gardens, the Coral Drive retail street and the running and cycling routes inside the island's berm park.

Aldar lists the project as under construction with completion in Q4 2029. Property Finder records construction from 1 July 2025 and expected completion in December 2029, which agrees with Aldar.

The headline price needs care. Aldar's listing card shows a starting price of AED 1.9 million, and Property Finder lists launch prices from AED 1.8 million for a studio, AED 2.9 million for one bedroom, AED 4.1 million for two and AED 6.1 million for three. On 13 November 2026, though, the units Aldar itself was selling were larger: 11 two-bedroom apartments from AED 4,588,027 to AED 5,379,982 (1,576 to 2,520 sq ft) and 13 three-bedroom apartments from AED 6,485,879 to AED 6,701,884 (1,970 to 2,696 sq ft). The studios and one-bedroom flats on Aldar's listing were resales by existing owners, with studios of 496 sq ft asking AED 1.925 million to AED 2.2 million.

Property Finder gives the payment plan as 10% at launch, 55% during construction and 35% on handover. On a AED 4,588,027 two-bedroom flat, the handover payment would be about AED 1.61 million.

The facilities are practical rather than showy: two pools, two gyms, co-working lounges and multipurpose rooms, play areas and a private podium garden, with bicycle parking that fits the island's cycling network. This suits a buyer who wants Fahid Island's beaches and outdoor life at a lower entry point than the beachfront towers, or a family planning around the King's College School Wimbledon campus Aldar has announced for the island. The points to weigh are the size of the building, the number of units bought by investors at launch, the 2029 completion and the fact that nobody yet lives on the island.
