Living and investing in Ramhan Island

Abu Dhabi has many waterfront addresses but very few genuine private islands. Ramhan Island is one of them: a naturally formed island between Saadiyat and Yas that Eagle Hills is developing across around four million square metres into a pure villa destination. No mass housing, no towers, just standalone villas, mangrove landscapes, private beaches and a marina. The guiding idea is exclusivity through low density, a concept rarely delivered on the Gulf with this consistency.

The island is organised into several neighbourhoods and lifestyle worlds, complemented by a retail promenade, leisure and wellness offerings and an exclusive resort quarter. Ramhan Island is therefore not a finished district but a vision of private island living under construction, with completion planned for 2027.

Location & connectivity

Ramhan Island lies off the coast of Abu Dhabi, between the established islands of Saadiyat and Yas. Access is by ferry, with the crossing from the mainland taking around ten minutes. The international airport is about 16 kilometres away, while Saadiyat's museums and beaches and the leisure attractions of Yas are immediate neighbours. This combination is deliberate: close enough to everything the capital offers, yet clearly set apart and protected by the water.

Lifestyle & surroundings

Life on Ramhan Island is quiet, private and water led. Many villas offer direct beach or marina access, with mangroves and green spaces in between. Daily life plays out between private garden, promenade and marina, rounded out by wellness, dining and an exclusive resort quarter. Anyone who values calm, security and closeness to nature will find a counterpoint to dense city life here, without giving up proximity to Saadiyat and Yas. It is a location for people who see privacy as a luxury.

Who is Ramhan Island right for?

Ramhan Island suits buyers seeking a spacious villa with high privacy and a strong water connection, families wanting a safe, quiet environment with room to grow, and international owners after an exclusive second home on the Gulf. Because the island offers only villas in a clearly limited number and ownership is freehold for all nationalities, an investment can additionally qualify for the Golden Visa. If instead you want urban living with nightlife and short trips to office and cafe, Al Reem Island will serve you better.

Projects & developers

The developer of Ramhan Island is Eagle Hills, an internationally active developer from Abu Dhabi that is planning the entire island as one connected villa destination. The plan provides for around 1,800 standalone villas plus marina residences across several lifestyle communities and neighbourhoods, complemented by a marina, a retail promenade and an exclusive resort quarter. The villa range spans more compact homes through to generous front row waterfront estates. Our portfolio features a select group of properties on Ramhan Island. We will gladly explain the differences between the neighbourhoods and guide you through the entire purchase in German or English.
