Project details
Talay by Aldar is an exclusive, ultra-luxury villa destination nestled within Marsa Al Saadiyat on Saadiyat Island, home to Abu Dhabi’s largest marina. Comprising 351 standalone villas across two distinct gated enclaves—Talay (167 villas) and the beachfront enclave Talay Beach (184 villas)—the project introduces an elevated coastal lifestyle. Residences are available in spacious 4, 5, and 6-bedroom configurations, with built-up areas starting from 502 to 630+ sq. metres (5,403 to 6,781 sq. ft). The architecture beautifully blends modern luxury with Emirati heritage, featuring an Outdoor Majlis Pavilion, traditional Aflaj water channels, and woven Areesh screens designed in collaboration with celebrated Emirati artist Abdalla Almulla.
Set against 1.6 km of vibrant marina frontage offering more than 350 berths, residents enjoy an extraordinary waterfront environment lined with promenade dining, boutique retail, and direct beach access. Talay is located just five minutes from the Saadiyat Cultural District—placing world-renowned landmarks like the Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, and teamLab Phenomena practically at your doorstep. Top-tier education is seamlessly integrated into the lifestyle, with a planned school inside the community alongside proximity to NYU Abu Dhabi and Cranleigh Abu Dhabi.
