Land for Sale in Al Reem Island — A Complete Investor & Developer Guide

Al Reem Island is a natural island roughly 600 metres off the north-eastern coast of Abu Dhabi's main island, connected by three bridges and forming one of the emirate's most established freehold investment zones. For developers and land investors, the appeal is simple: it is one of the few central Abu Dhabi locations where you can still acquire freehold development land in Al Reem Island with full title — and where existing infrastructure, demand and a proven masterplan dramatically de-risk a project. Below is everything you need to know before you buy land in Al Reem Island.

Al Reem Island Plot Types & Zoning

A Reem Island plot is typically sold with a defined permitted use and a Gross Floor Area (GFA) multiplier that determines how much you can build. The main categories of Al Reem Island plots currently available are:

• Residential plots: Land zoned for apartment buildings — the backbone of Reem Island's housing supply. Sold by GFA, with low-rise and high-rise options.
• Mixed-use plots: Premium parcels permitting a combination of residential, retail and office GFA — ideal for landmark towers and podium developments.
• Low-rise residential plots: Lower-density land for boutique buildings, popular in the island's waterfront and community pockets.
• High-rise residential plots: High-GFA land for tower developments with sea, mangrove or skyline views.

Al Reem Island is divided into several master-planned districts. Understanding them helps you target the right Al Reem Island lands for your strategy — whether build-to-sell, build-to-rent, or land-banking:

Al Reem Island Plot Prices

Because every parcel carries a different size, zoning and GFA, Al Reem Island plot prices are quoted per plot rather than per square foot of land alone — the value is driven by buildable GFA. As a guide, the residential and mixed-use plots in our current inventory range from large institutional parcels of 45,000 sqft up to 255,000+ sqft. To compare like-for-like, investors should look at price-per-buildable-sqft (price ÷ GFA) rather than headline land area.
