Facts last verified 13 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Developer | [One Development](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/one-development) | | Location | [Al Reem Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/abu-dhabi/al-reem-island), Abu Dhabi | | Status | launched | | Developer's handover target | Q2 2028 | | Tenure | freehold | | Price | From AED 1,400,000 (published figure, 13 November 2026) | | Average price per sq ft | AED 1,600 | | Home types | 1-bedroom apartments, 2-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom apartments, 1-bedroom duplexes, 2-bedroom duplexes, 3-bedroom duplexes, 4-bedroom duplexes | | Total units | 196 | | Floors | 31 | | Buildings | 1 | | Golden Visa value test | All published prices are below AED 2,000,000 | ## Overview ONE Residence is the first Abu Dhabi project by [One Development](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/one-development): a single tower of 196 homes on [Al Reem Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/abu-dhabi/al-reem-island), the high-rise island beside the city centre. It rises 31 storeys, with three podium levels and a roof, and handover is due in the second quarter of 2028. The developer launched it at Emirates Palace and markets it as the first AI-integrated community in Abu Dhabi. The feature that draws attention is on the roof: a landing pad designed for electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, the air taxis expected to start passenger service in the UAE in the coming years. The developer calls it the world's first vertiport in a residential tower and adds a drone delivery system. Both depend on operators and regulators outside the developer's control, so treat them as future possibilities rather than services you can count on at handover. The homes are more conventional and more generous than the headline suggests. One-bedroom apartments run from 875 to 1,300 sq ft and four-bedroom duplexes reach 3,352 sq ft. Two- and three-bedroom homes come as single-level apartments or duplexes, and the larger layouts add a helper's room and store. Facilities include a pool and kids' pool, a spa with sauna, a hyperbaric oxygen therapy room, a yoga and Pilates studio, a gym, a multi-purpose court, mini golf and an outdoor theatre. The developer gives about 15 minutes to the Corniche and Saadiyat's Cultural District, 25 minutes to Yas Island and 30 minutes to Zayed International Airport. The payment plan is 10% on booking, 40% in eight milestone instalments during construction and 50% on handover. One Development lists prices from about AED 1.4 million, while Property Finder gives a launch price of AED 3.64 million and now marks the project as sold out. Confirm which homes are still offered by the developer, and compare them with resale prices on the island. Who it suits: families and owner-occupiers who want a large new apartment close to Abu Dhabi's centre, and buyers drawn to a building with a distinctive story. What to weigh: Al Reem Island has plenty of completed towers, so rents and resale prices there are a useful check on the off-plan price, and the developer has not yet completed a project in the UAE. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1-bedroom apartments | AED 1,400,000 | | 875 to 1,300 sq ft | | available | | 2-bedroom apartments | Not published | | 1,371 to 1,867 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | Not published | | 1,926 to 2,485 sq ft | | available | | 1-bedroom duplexes | Not published | | 968 to 1,309 sq ft | | available | | 2-bedroom duplexes | Not published | | 1,935 to 2,421 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom duplexes | Not published | | 2,275 to 2,786 sq ft | | available | | 4-bedroom duplexes | Not published | | 3,196 to 3,352 sq ft | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 50/50 - Down payment: 10% (On booking) - During construction: 40% (Eight milestone instalments) - On handover: 50% (Q2 2028) Paid before handover: 50%. From the developer's brochure. Property Finder lists the same 10/40/50 split. ## What works - Generous layouts: one-bedroom homes from 875 sq ft and four-bedroom duplexes over 3,300 sq ft. - Half the price is due on handover, with 40% spread across eight construction milestones. - Al Reem Island sits beside Abu Dhabi's centre, about 15 minutes from the Corniche by the developer's estimate. - A small tower of 196 homes, with a rooftop air-taxi pad that sets it apart from its neighbours. ## What to weigh - Property Finder marks the project as sold out, while the developer still markets it. Confirm which homes remain. - Sources disagree on price: from about AED 1.4 million on the developer's site, AED 3.64 million on Property Finder. - The air-taxi pad and drone delivery depend on outside operators and regulation. Do not count on them at handover. - One Development has not yet completed a UAE project. - Al Reem has many completed towers, so check resale prices and rents against the off-plan price. ## Location On Al Reem Island beside Abu Dhabi's city centre. The developer gives about 15 minutes to the Corniche and Saadiyat's Cultural District, 25 minutes to Yas Island and 30 minutes to Zayed International Airport. - Reem Mall: about 7 minutes - Abu Dhabi Corniche: about 15 minutes - Saadiyat Cultural District: about 15 minutes - Yas Island: about 25 minutes - Zayed International Airport: about 30 minutes ## Amenities - Rooftop landing pad for electric air taxis - Drone delivery system - Hyperbaric oxygen therapy - Wellness spa and sauna - Swimming pool - Kids' pool - Indoor and outdoor gym - Yoga and Pilates studio - Multi-purpose court - Multi-purpose hall - Mini golf - Outdoor theatre - Outdoor kids' playground - Family BBQ area - Pet-friendly areas - Residents' AI app ## Questions and answers ### How much is an apartment at ONE Residence?
