Latest Pressrelease Summaries

Aldar, a leading real estate developer in the UAE, is investing AED 1.5 billion to transform its hotel portfolio in Abu Dhabi, aiming to capitalize on the growth of the UAE’s tourism sector and the global luxury travel market. Key changes include rebranding the Eastern Mangroves hotel as a Waldorf Astoria luxury resort, reimagining the Yas Plaza Hotels under the IHG brand to create the world's largest Vignette Collection resort, and converting the Tilal Liwa hotel in Al Dhafra into a luxury desert escape under the same brand. Additionally, Aldar is refurbishing and expanding its Nurai Island resort and enhancing its flagship hotels in Ras Al Khaimah. This transformation aligns with Abu Dhabi's strategy to increase international tourism, which saw a 27% rise in hotel guests in 2023.
Aldar Properties and Mubadala Investment Company have formed a strategic partnership to develop and manage real estate assets in Abu Dhabi valued at over AED 30 billion. This collaboration aims to enhance Abu Dhabi's status as a global business and lifestyle destination. The partnership, inaugurated by His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, leverages Mubadala’s land bank and institutional strength alongside Aldar’s development and asset management expertise. The joint ventures will include a retail platform featuring Yas Mall and The Galleria Luxury Collection, income-generating assets in Masdar City and Al Falah, and new luxury residential communities on islands near Saadiyat and Yas Islands. The ventures are expected to be finalized in the coming months, subject to due diligence.
Aldar Properties announced the complete sell-out of its luxury canal-front community, Yas Riva, on launch day, generating over AED 1.4 billion in sales. Expatriate residents and overseas buyers made up 48% of sales, while Emirati, Indian, Pakistani, and British buyers were the top four nationalities by sales volume. The rapid sell-out highlights Yas Island's appeal for luxury living and its growing status as a premier investment destination. UAE nationals accounted for 52% of sales, indicating strong local interest, while 60% of buyers were under 45, showing the development's popularity among younger individuals. First-time buyers of an Aldar property comprised 38% of sales, demonstrating Aldar's expanding customer base both locally and internationally.
Aldar Properties has announced the launch of Yas Riva, a luxury villa community on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, set to be available from September 13, 2024. Yas Riva will feature 151 four, five, and six-bedroom villas, both canal-front and canal-accessible, offering a lifestyle of ease and elegance in a tranquil waterfront setting. The canal-front homes will include private docks, allowing residents to explore the waterways by boat. The community is designed with sleek and elegant principles, providing access to world-class attractions and thoughtfully landscaped gardens and parks. The villas will be available to buyers of all nationalities.
