Hudayriyat Golf Estates

Hudayriyat Golf Estates is a gated golf community by Modon on Hudayriyat Island, laid out around an 18-hole course and water channels. Modon puts the course at 95 hectares and says a 2.3 km green spine links a clubhouse, wellness and fitness facilities, shops, co-working space and a school. The architecture is Andalusian in style. Modon launched the community in July 2026 and reported more than AED 13 billion of sales, covering 1,700 homes, within days. That was the highest value it said had been publicly recorded for a single residential launch in the UAE.

There are three gated sub-communities, which Modon calls the Townhome, Villa and Waterfront communities, all with 24-hour security. Modon's factsheet lists eight home types, all due in Q3 2030: three- and four-bedroom townhomes of 204 and 237 sq m; four-bedroom Golf Homes of 372 sq m; five-bedroom Range Villas of 547 sq m; six-bedroom Fairway Villas of 910 sq m; six-bedroom Golf Mansions of 1,150 sq m; and Par 3 and Par 4 Villas of 235 and 327 sq m, for which Modon does not give a bedroom count. Modon publishes average prices rather than starting prices: AED 4.2 million for the three-bedroom townhome, rising to AED 26.8 million for a Fairway Villa and AED 35.8 million for a Golf Mansion, with the Par 3 and Par 4 Villas at AED 4.9 million and AED 6.6 million. Property Finder shows launch prices from AED 4.25 million.

The plan is 40/60. Property Finder sets it out as 5% on booking, seven instalments of 5% between months 10 and 46, and 60% on handover. Modon's FAQ says the community will be ready by August 2030, and that a home can be resold before handover once 20% of the price has been paid. Modon says the villas have a Pearl 3.0 sustainability rating from Abu Dhabi Municipality, and every home has a garden to landscape as the owner wishes. Pets are allowed.

Who it suits: golfers and families who want a gated, low-density community close to central Abu Dhabi, and buyers who can carry 60% at handover in 2030. Modon puts downtown Abu Dhabi about 20 minutes away and Zayed International Airport about 30, with Surf Abu Dhabi, the Velodrome and the island's cycling and running trails nearby.

What to weigh. With 1,700 homes sold in the first days, what remains is limited, and Modon has not said how many homes are left or in which types; ask for the current availability list before comparing prices. Expect early buyers to offer their contracts for resale before handover, so check those asking prices too. The 60% handover payment is large: about AED 2.55 million on a AED 4.25 million townhome. The golf course, school and clubhouse are still to be built, and service charges have not been published.
