Hudayriyat Golf Estates: Inside Modon’s New Abu Dhabi Launch
Explore Hudayriyat Golf Estates by Modon Properties on Hudayriyat Island, featuring golf-front villas and townhomes from AED 4.25M, a 40/60 payment plan, and freehold ownership in Abu Dhabi.
Abu Dhabi’s luxury property market continues to evolve, and one of the most closely watched launches this year is Hudayriyat Golf Estates, a new freehold community by Modon Properties on Hudayriyat Island. Positioned around an 18-hole championship golf course, the project introduces a new category of golf-front living to one of the emirate’s most ambitious island masterplans. For buyers, investors, and overseas purchasers, this launch stands out not only because of its location, but because of its pricing structure, long-term payment plan, and the scale of infrastructure already taking shape around it.
At its core, Hudayriyat Golf Estates is a master-planned residential community built around lifestyle-led design. Rather than being a standalone villa cluster, it has been conceived as part of a wider destination. The development combines Andalusian-inspired architecture, landscaped green corridors, fairways, and water features across six residential typologies, offering everything from entry-level luxury townhomes to ultra-premium golf mansions. The community is fully freehold, allowing foreign buyers to own property in one of Abu Dhabi’s designated ownership zones.
The residential mix is broad enough to appeal to different buyer profiles. Entry starts with a 3-bedroom Townhome, priced from AED 4.25 million, offering 204 sqm (approximately 2,196 sqft) of built-up space. A larger 4-bedroom Townhome begins from AED 4.95 million, while the 4-bedroom Golf Home starts at AED 7.35 million. Buyers looking for larger family homes move into the 5-bedroom Range Villa, priced from AED 10.15 million, before reaching the premium end of the launch with the 6-bedroom Fairway Villa from AED 26.55 million and the flagship 6-bedroom Golf Mansion, starting at AED 35.55 million with an impressive 1,150 sqm, or roughly 12,378 sqft. This range gives the project a wider market appeal than many single-product luxury launches.
One of the strongest reasons this project is attracting early attention is its 40/60 payment plan, which is currently one of the softer structures available in Abu Dhabi’s off-plan market. Buyers pay just 5% on reservation in 2026, followed by 5% every six months through to March 2030. The remaining 60% is due on handover, currently scheduled for Q3 2030. For a buyer purchasing the entry-level 3-bedroom Townhome at AED 4.25 million, that means an initial commitment of AED 212,500, followed by manageable staged payments, with the majority of the cost deferred until completion. For many buyers, especially international investors, this keeps capital exposure relatively low during construction and creates flexibility for future mortgage financing.
That payment plan matters even more when placed in the context of the wider island. Hudayriyat Island is not a typical residential location. Spanning more than 51 million square metres, it represents one of the largest waterfront masterplans in the emirate. The island adds over 53 kilometres of coastline and 16 kilometres of new beaches to Abu Dhabi, while also introducing major new recreational infrastructure. Unlike many off-plan destinations where amenities remain conceptual, much of Hudayriyat’s appeal is already visible today.
Several flagship destinations are already operational or actively being delivered. These include Surf Abu Dhabi, developed with Kelly Slater Wave Co., and Velodrome Abu Dhabi, the region’s first UCI Category 1 indoor cycling venue. Existing lifestyle assets such as Marsana Beach, Bab Al Nojoum, Circuit X, and a 220-kilometre cycling network reinforce the island’s positioning as an active-lifestyle destination. A future urban park of more than 2.25 million square metres is also planned, which would become the largest in the emirate. This existing momentum reduces a key concern many buyers have with off-plan launches: uncertainty around delivery.
That is also why comparisons with Abu Dhabi’s established golf communities are inevitable. Existing addresses such as Yas Acres, communities around Saadiyat Beach Golf Club, and Al Raha Golf Gardens already serve the premium golf market. However, what makes this launch different is the combination of golf living with island-wide lifestyle infrastructure. Residents are not only buying a golf-facing home; they are stepping into a broader ecosystem of beaches, cycling, sports, wellness, and leisure, all delivered by the same master developer. That alignment between island planning and residential delivery is a significant competitive advantage.
Inside the community, the amenity offering supports that same positioning. Residents will have access to the 18-hole golf course, a country clubhouse, wellness facilities, multi-sports courts, cycling trails, parks, landscaped green spaces, community retail, coworking spaces, dining outlets, and a private school. That final detail is especially relevant for end-user families deciding between this location and more established communities on Yas or Saadiyat. While service charge figures have not yet been published, buyers should request those details before final contract signing to better understand long-term ownership costs.
The project is currently in its Expression of Interest (EOI) phase, which means buyers are registering for allocation rather than signing immediate purchase agreements. EOI deposits begin at AED 75,000 for the 3- and 4-bedroom Townhomes, increase to AED 100,000 for the Golf Home and Range Villa, rise to AED 150,000 for the Fairway Villa, and reach AED 250,000 for the Golf Mansion. This deposit places buyers into the priority allocation pool. Based on Modon’s earlier launches on the island including Bashayer, Wadeem, and Nawayef demand has historically exceeded available supply, making early registration important for buyers who want the strongest unit selection.
As attractive as the project is, buyers should still approach it with a balanced view. Handover is more than four years away, which introduces construction timeline risk. Final delivered finishes may differ slightly from marketing renders, and early resale is usually restricted until a minimum payment threshold has been reached. Service charges remain unknown, and overseas buyers should also consider currency movement over a multi-year payment schedule. None of these are reasons to avoid the project; they are simply part of responsible off-plan buying.
From an investment perspective, Hudayriyat Golf Estates appears strategically positioned. It sits within a government-backed masterplan led by ADQ through Modon, offers freehold ownership, and enters the market at a time when Abu Dhabi’s premium island communities continue to see strong buyer demand. For long-term investors, this looks less like a short-term speculative launch and more like an opportunity to enter a destination that may define Abu Dhabi’s next decade of waterfront living.
