Aldar's own stock on 13 November 2026 started at AED 6,484,900 for a two-bedroom duplex. Facts last verified 13 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Developer | [Aldar](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/aldar) | | Location | [Fahid Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/abu-dhabi/fahid-island), Abu Dhabi | | Status | under construction | | Developer's handover target | Q4 2029 | | Sales launched | 2025-08 | | Tenure | freehold | | Price | From AED 6,484,900 to AED 10,797,900 (published figure, 13 November 2026) | | Average price per sq ft | AED 3,569 | | Home types | 2-bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom apartments, 2-bedroom duplexes | | Total units | 531 | | Buildings | 6 | | Golden Visa value test | Some homes are priced at or above AED 2,000,000 | ## Overview Fahid Beach Terraces is the third residential development [Aldar](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/developers/aldar) launched on [Fahid Island](https://www.uaepropertyagents.com/abu-dhabi/fahid-island), announced in August 2025. It is a group of six beachfront towers on a waterfront plot, with 531 units from studios to five-bedroom penthouses, including duplexes and some retail. Aldar's selling point is direct access from the buildings to the beach, the promenade and the Coral Drive retail street. Aldar's published size range runs from 590 sq ft to 17,005 sq ft across the apartment, duplex, penthouse and retail units. Aldar lists the project as under construction with completion in Q4 2029. Property Finder records construction from 28 August 2025 and completion in December 2029, which matches. Property Finder files the project in its sold-out section, but Aldar was still selling developer stock on 13 November 2026, so the portal is behind on availability. What Aldar offered that day: 30 two-bedroom apartments from AED 6,960,500 to AED 9,264,900 (1,924 to 3,008 sq ft), 12 two-bedroom duplexes from AED 6,484,900 to AED 7,417,866 (1,664 to 1,761 sq ft) and four three-bedroom apartments from AED 9,514,300 to AED 10,797,900 (2,980 to 3,534 sq ft). Aldar's listing card still shows a starting price of AED 2,457,300, and Property Finder's launch prices began at AED 3.6 million for one bedroom, but no developer units at those levels were listed; the only one-bedroom flat on Aldar's listing was an owner resale. Property Finder publishes two plans, each with a 10% deposit at launch and construction payments in five instalments: 55% during construction and 35% on handover, or 70% during construction and 20% on handover. The second plan front-loads payments but cuts the handover sum. On the cheapest duplex now listed, 35% is about AED 2.27 million and 20% about AED 1.3 million. The facility list is the most complete of the Fahid schemes: infinity pools, a spa with a salt room and cold plunge pools, padel and volleyball courts, a cinema, co-working and residents' lounges, private dining and separate rooms for children and tweens. It suits buyers who want a beachfront home on the island for their own use or as a second home, and families with older children. The cautions are the prices, well above those at The Beach House Fahid in the island's centre, the large sums due before completion, and the fact that this and two neighbouring schemes will all complete in 2029 on an island with no residents yet. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2-bedroom apartments | AED 6,960,500 | AED 9,264,900 | 1,924 to 3,008 sq ft | | available | | 3-bedroom apartments | AED 9,514,300 | AED 10,797,900 | 2,980 to 3,534 sq ft | | available | | 2-bedroom duplexes | AED 6,484,900 | AED 7,417,866 | 1,664 to 1,761 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 ### 10/55/35 - Down payment: 10% (At sales launch) - During construction: 55% (In 5 instalments) - On handover: 35% (Q4 2029) Paid before handover: 65%.
