Hudayriyat Golf Estates Payment Plan — 40/60
On reservation: Into Modon’s regulated escrow account, with the 2% registration fee
A 40/60 plan: 5% on reservation, then 5% every six months from March 2027 through March 2030 — seven instalments — with the remaining 60% due on handover.
Payments are made into Modon’s regulated escrow account, and under Abu Dhabi’s 2024 off-plan regulations instalments follow construction progress rather than a fixed calendar alone.

Layouts & Specifications
Entry prices, not averages. Every figure in the table is the entry point for that typology, and the price per square foot is derived from the confirmed price and the confirmed gross saleable area. Numbers published elsewhere for the same home are sometimes community averages rather than starting prices, which is why quoted figures differ between listings.
What each typology contains. Townhomes carry an office or studio, family living and dining, a back-of-house kitchen, staff bedroom and covered parking, with the four-bedroom adding a ground-floor guest bedroom and first-floor terrace. Golf Homes introduce the show and service kitchen pairing and a ground-floor guest suite. Range Villas add a Majlis, a double-height volume, a private pool and separate maid’s, driver’s and security rooms. Fairway Villas add a lift, a pergola and a penthouse game room. Golf Mansions carry a full basement wellness level — gym, spa, massage room and office — with a lift serving all four floors.
What is not yet published. Plot sizes per typology and the service charge have not been released by Modon, so we do not quote them; figures circulating elsewhere are unverified. Two further typologies — Par 3 Villas at 235 sq m and Par 4 Villas at 327 sq m — sit outside the six above, with release status and pricing still to be confirmed. More than 1,700 residences were reported sold within days of the July 2026 launch, so ask us to confirm the live release sheet before you act.
About This Project
Hudayriyat Golf Estates is Modon’s golf-led precinct on Hudayriyat Island, a residential community built around a 95-hectare, 18-hole championship course with a 2.3 km green spine threading through it. The architecture is Andalusian — white render, deep-set windows, tiled roofs, arched entries and courtyards — set alongside sweeping fairways and a serene water channel.
The course is the anchor, designed by Lobb + Partners, a practice with more than 30 years of work on award-winning golf destinations worldwide. Around it sit a country clubhouse, a golf academy, a wellness centre and spa, multi-sports courts, dining and retail, community retail, a private school, coworking spaces, cycling trails and parks. The master plan also sets aside an equestrian centre and Biotopia adjoining the precinct.
Townhomes
Three and four bedrooms over ground and first floors, 2,196 to 2,551 sq ft, with covered parking, private outdoor living and landscaped frontage.
Homes & villas
Four-bedroom Golf Homes at 4,004 sq ft with show and service kitchens, and five-bedroom Range Villas at 5,888 sq ft adding a Majlis, double-height volume and private pool.
Six-bedroom tiers
Fairway Villas at 9,795 sq ft over three levels with a lift and penthouse game room, and Golf Mansions at 12,378 sq ft across four, with a basement wellness floor.
The wider island matters as much as the precinct. Hudayriyat already holds Surf Abu Dhabi, the Velodrome and the High Performance Centre, alongside a cycling and running network and open beaches — infrastructure that exists today rather than on a plan.
Prices run from a three-bedroom townhome to a six-bedroom Golf Mansion, on a 40/60 payment plan with handover in 2030. Ownership is freehold to all nationalities, and Abu Dhabi’s registration fee is 2% of the purchase price rather than Dubai’s 4%.
Already built on the island
Surf Abu Dhabi is open and operating, the Velodrome is an Olympic-standard air-conditioned cycling arena, and the island carries purpose-built running and cycling tracks, football pitches, mountain-bike trails, climbing walls and a skate park. Several licensed restaurants already trade there.
Still to come
The golf course, country clubhouse, golf academy and private school are all to be delivered. What exists on Hudayriyat today is the sports and beach infrastructure, not the golf community — that arrives with handover in 2030.
Our Honest Take
No listing-site gloss. This is how we read Hudayriyat Golf Estates for our own clients — including who should walk away.
Our view is that the pricing structure here is more interesting than the headline, and that the community’s strongest argument is one almost nobody is making.
The three-bedroom townhome runs about AED 1,935 per sq ft, the four-bedroom townhome about 1,940, the Golf Home about 1,836 — and the five-bedroom Range Villa is the cheapest home in the community per square foot, at roughly AED 1,724. Then it jumps: the Fairway Villa is about 2,711 and the Golf Mansion about 2,872. That 57% step between the Range and Fairway tiers is the single most important pricing fact about this project. The Range Villa is where the value sits; the two six-bedroom tiers are priced as trophy assets and should be bought as such.
Between 2021 and 2024, Dubai sold 212,000 off-plan homes against Abu Dhabi’s 22,000. In 2025 to July, Dubai sold 66,029 against Abu Dhabi’s 4,307 — roughly fifteen times more. Meanwhile Abu Dhabi’s population grew by 288,840 in the 2024 census, faster in percentage terms than Dubai’s. For every off-plan unit sold, Abu Dhabi added around 27 new residents; Dubai added about 1.5. That gap between what is being built and who is arriving explains why Abu Dhabi villa values rose across the board over the last twelve months — Hidd Al Saadiyat up 17.5%, Al Reem 15.4%, Saadiyat 13.6%, Yas 6.8%.
The payment structure genuinely favours the buyer. You commit 40% across four years and 60% at handover, and under Abu Dhabi’s 2024 off-plan regulations payments are tied to construction progress rather than a fixed calendar. Compare that with the 80/20 plans the large Dubai developers now impose. The 2% registration fee, against Dubai’s 4%, saves roughly AED 203,000 on a AED 10.15M Range Villa.
Now the honest part. Hudayriyat is reached by causeway, and this precinct adds well over a thousand homes to an island that also draws visitors to Surf Abu Dhabi and the Velodrome. Access at peak times is a fair question to ask, and tunnels to the financial district have been discussed but not confirmed. Handover is 2030, so this is a four-year hold before you can use or let the home. And the golf course, clubhouse, school and academy are all still to be built.
Anyone who needs income before 2030. Anyone who wants a completed golf community now. And anyone who cannot comfortably fund the 60% due at handover — that is the largest single payment in any plan on our books. For a buyer who can hold, the Range Villa at these terms is one of the better-value villa entries in the capital.
Why this project
Hudayriyat Golf Estates Location
Hudayriyat Golf Estates sits within Hudayriyat West, on an island just off Abu Dhabi’s coast, reached by causeway from the mainland. The precinct occupies the golf-course side of the island, with the Sports Village, Surf Abu Dhabi, the Velodrome and the Olympia Resort immediately to its west, and beaches, schools, a clinic and retail set within the wider master plan.
What separates Hudayriyat from most new addresses is that a great deal of it already exists. Surf Abu Dhabi is open and operating. The Velodrome is an Olympic-standard, air-conditioned cycling arena. The island carries purpose-built running and cycling tracks, football pitches, mountain-bike trails, climbing walls and a skate park, and several licensed restaurants are already trading. For a buyer weighing a four-year build, the fact that the island’s lifestyle is already running matters.
The mainland is close in distance, but the causeway shapes the drive. Abu Dhabi Global Market is 29 minutes away, Louvre Abu Dhabi 31, Zayed International Airport 33 and the Disneyland Abu Dhabi site 37. Times quoted for this community vary widely elsewhere — by as much as two and a half times for the same destination — so treat any figure with caution, and drive the route at your intended commute hour before you commit.
Life at Hudayriyat Golf Estates
About MODON
Modon Properties is a master developer wholly owned by ADQ, one of the region’s largest sovereign investment entities and a central vehicle in Abu Dhabi’s long-term strategy to attract global capital and residents.
Modon is the developer behind Hudayriyat Island’s transformation — not only its residential communities but the sports and leisure infrastructure that now defines the island, including Surf Abu Dhabi and the Velodrome. Earlier island releases including Nawayef and Bashayer sold out at launch, and Nawayef has already been handed over.
Hudayriyat Golf Estates is the island’s golf-led flagship, and reportedly recorded more than AED 13 billion in sales within days of its July 2026 launch.
Government ownership matters here in a practical sense: Modon is not financing construction from buyer deposits, which is why a 40/60 plan is possible at all. It is the structural reason this payment plan is more generous than what the large private developers now offer.
Hudayriyat Golf Estates — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the starting price at Hudayriyat Golf Estates?
Prices start at AED 4.25M for a three-bedroom Golf Townhome of 204 sq m. Four-bedroom townhomes start at AED 4.95M, Golf Homes at AED 7.35M, Range Villas at AED 10.15M, Fairway Villas at AED 26.55M and Golf Mansions at AED 35.55M. These are entry prices for each typology. Figures published elsewhere are sometimes community averages rather than starting prices, which is why quoted numbers differ between listings.
What is the payment plan?
A 40/60 plan: 5% on reservation, then 5% every six months from March 2027 through March 2030 — seven instalments — with the remaining 60% on handover. Abu Dhabi’s 2% registration fee applies on purchase, against 4% in Dubai.
Which unit offers the best value per square foot?
The five-bedroom Range Villa, at roughly AED 1,724 per sq ft — the lowest in the community. Townhomes run about AED 1,935–1,940 and Golf Homes about AED 1,836, while the six-bedroom Fairway Villa jumps to about AED 2,711 and the Golf Mansion to about AED 2,872. The 57% step between the Range and Fairway tiers is the community’s key pricing threshold.
When will Hudayriyat Golf Estates be completed?
Handover is scheduled for 2030, with the final construction instalment falling due in March 2030. Dates quoted publicly for this community range from the second quarter to September 2030, so we confirm the contracted date in writing for every client before purchase.
Who designed the golf course?
Lobb + Partners, a practice with over 30 years of experience creating award-winning golf destinations shaped by local culture and sustainable design. The course covers 95 hectares with 18 holes, and the precinct also includes a golf academy and country clubhouse. Par, yardage and the course operator have not yet been announced.
Where exactly is Hudayriyat Golf Estates?
In Hudayriyat West, on Hudayriyat Island off Abu Dhabi’s coast, reached by causeway. The drive is 29 minutes to ADGM, 31 to Louvre Abu Dhabi, 33 to Zayed International Airport and 37 to the Disneyland Abu Dhabi site. Surf Abu Dhabi, the Velodrome and the Sports Village are minutes away on the island itself.
Can foreigners buy at Hudayriyat Golf Estates?
Yes. The community is sold freehold to buyers of all nationalities, who own the home and its plot outright. Purchases are registered with Abu Dhabi’s real-estate authority and buyer payments are held in a regulated escrow account.
Does buying here qualify for a UAE Golden Visa?
Property purchases of AED 2M or more can qualify a buyer for the UAE’s 10-year Golden Visa, and every home at Hudayriyat Golf Estates is above that threshold. Off-plan purchases can qualify subject to the prevailing rules on payment and registration status, which we confirm at the time of purchase.
Is Hudayriyat Golf Estates a good investment?
The supply case is strong: Abu Dhabi sold 4,307 off-plan units in 2025 to July against Dubai’s 66,029, while adding 288,840 residents in the 2024 census. Abu Dhabi villa values rose across the board in the last twelve months — Hidd Al Saadiyat 17.5%, Al Reem 15.4%, Saadiyat 13.6%, Yas 6.8%. The offsets are a four-year hold to handover and a community whose golf amenities are not yet built.
What is already built on Hudayriyat Island?
A great deal. Surf Abu Dhabi is open, the Velodrome is an Olympic-standard air-conditioned cycling arena, and the island carries purpose-built running and cycling tracks, football pitches, mountain-bike trails, climbing walls and a skate park. Several licensed restaurants already trade there. The golf course, clubhouse, academy and school are still to be delivered.
What amenities will the community have?
Eleven are confirmed: the 18-hole golf course, country clubhouse, golf academy, dining and retail, wellness centre, multi-sports courts, community retail, a private school, cycling trails, parks and green spaces, and coworking spaces. The master plan also sets aside an equestrian centre and Biotopia adjoining the precinct.
What is inside a Golf Mansion?
Four levels totalling 1,150 sq m: a basement with gym, spa, massage room, changing room and office; a ground floor with Majlis living-dining, family living-dining-kitchen, garage and staff accommodation; a first floor with the master suite and five further bedrooms; and a penthouse with its own living room and game room. A lift serves all four floors, and the home has a pool, pergola and covered terrace.
Who is the developer?
Modon Properties, a master developer wholly owned by ADQ, one of the region’s largest sovereign investment entities. Modon is the developer behind Hudayriyat Island’s wider transformation, including Surf Abu Dhabi and the Velodrome, and has delivered earlier island communities including Nawayef.
