Riviera Residences by MERED on Al Reem Island, Abu Dhabi

Riviera Residences by MERED is a new chapter in coastal living in Abu Dhabi, where world-class design is complemented by cosy, private surroundings and inspiring sea views. The residential complex comprises several mid-rise buildings and is located on the prestigious Al Reem Island, which forms the business and cultural hub of the emirate. MERED is implementing the project in partnership with the Pritzker Prize-winning Herzog & de Meuron. The architecture of Riviera Residences is inspired by the pearl heritage of the Emirates: the façades shimmer with pearlescent hues, like the surface of a shell, reflecting the interplay of light in the bay and creating an effect of endless movement.

Property at Riviera Residences by MERED is represented by a grand collection of 400+ residences and 12 exclusive villas. This includes 1-3 bedroom apartments, 3-bedroom duplexes, Ocean villas, Sky villas, and a single penthouse covering 20,096 sqft (1,867 m²). The size of the remaining layouts varies from 689 sqft (64 m²) to 10,247 sqft (952 m²). The interiors are designed in a ‘quiet luxury’ manner — soft natural hues, stone and wood textures, floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic marine vistas. Each residence features a private terrace. The apartments and villas at Riviera Residences by MERED are offered for purchase unfurnished, which provides ample opportunity for customisation.

The internal infrastructure of the complex fully corresponds to the format of a ‘private resort’. On site, there are four swimming pools (including a family and sports one), indoor and outdoor gyms, a padel court, yoga and crossfit zones, a spa centre with an ice bath and sensory shower, a sauna and a steam room. For family residents, there are kids' pools, playgrounds, as well as kid's clubhouse. The project also comprises a movie theatre, lounge terraces, juice bars, cafes with show kitchens, picnic grounds, and business spaces. Important features are a private marina with a docked yacht for sailing trips of residents and their guests, as well as a promenade filled with restaurants, cafes, and boutiques.

The positioning of Riviera Residences on Al Reem Island is the ideal compromise between privacy and metropolitan vibrancy. Within walking distance are Reem Mall with 400+ shops and Snow Abu Dhabi, as well as The Galleria Al Maryah Island, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Sorbonne Abu Dhabi University, Repton School and GEMS World Academy. The Saadiyat Cultural District, with its legendary museums, is about a 10-minute drive away. Yas Island, with its world-famous Ferrari World and Warner Bros. parks, is a 20-minute drive away. And the transfer to Zayed International Airport takes about half an hour.

Property on Al Reem Island is one of Abu Dhabi's top performers in terms of investment returns. The average rental yield here is 6-7% per annum, and demand for rentals is sustained by professionals, students and expatriate families. Against the backdrop of limited supply of new coastal residential complexes, buying an apartment at Riviera Residences by MERED looks like a promising solution for long-term rental and capital growth. The investment appeal is further reinforced by the fact that the project is backed by an international architect and is located next to the financial cluster ADGM.

The starting price for property at Riviera Residences on Al Reem Island is 1 900 000 AED (517 400 $) for a 1-bedroom residence.
