Emirates Hilton Residences: A Townhouse Address on Al Raha Beach
Emirates Developments is bringing Emirates Hilton Residences to Al Raha Beach, Abu Dhabi. This is a townhouse-only development at a single price point, with construction started in September 2026 and handover targeted for late 2028. The project offers one configuration aimed at buyers who want private residential living in a waterfront Abu Dhabi district.
Al Raha Beach: What This Address Means
Al Raha Beach occupies Abu Dhabi's coastline between the city centre and the international airport. The airport is accessible in under 20 minutes from this area. Yas Island, with its leisure attractions, theme parks, and the Formula 1 circuit, is a short drive. The neighbourhood itself is an established coastal district with retail, dining, and direct waterfront access.
For investors, the location sits on a corridor that connects Abu Dhabi's airport zone to its leisure and residential zones. For end-users, practical airport access combined with proximity to Yas Island's facilities shapes the daily living and commuting picture in a way that a purely inland address cannot match.
AED 5.47 Million: One Configuration, One Price
Emirates Hilton Residences is priced at AED 5,470,000 for the sole available unit: a 3-bedroom townhouse, Type 1. The minimum and maximum prices are identical. There is no entry-level tier below this and no premium variant above it. Buyers evaluate one product at one price.
At AED 5.47M, the buyer is either a family with a specific need for the townhouse format or an investor targeting longer-stay tenants who prioritise space and privacy over apartment amenities. The 3-bedroom layout serves a buyer who needs at least three dedicated rooms: family members, a home office, or a guest room all fit within this configuration. Families wanting ground-level access, private outdoor space, and separation from shared building corridors are the natural match.
The Townhouse Product
The single available configuration is a 3-bedroom townhouse with a Type 1 layout. This gives the development a focused identity: it serves one type of buyer rather than spanning the full market from studios to penthouses.
The townhouse format means ground-floor access, private outdoor areas, and independence from shared lift lobbies and common corridors. For families with children, these are structural advantages that register in daily use. At the AED 5.47M price point, the buyer is not choosing between configurations. They are deciding whether this format, at this price, in this location, fits their life or portfolio.
Facilities on Site
Six amenity categories serve the development:
| Category | Facility |
|---|---|
| Wellness | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Security | CCTV Security |
The indoor pool is the standout element. An enclosed aquatic facility operates regardless of Abu Dhabi's summer heat, and its presence reflects deliberate planning for year-round use. The children's play area and landscaped gardens reinforce the family brief. On-site restaurant access is a practical convenience in a waterfront district where external dining options vary in proximity.
The CCTV security coverage provides a monitored environment across the site. The overall amenity set is calibrated for residents who expect daily-use facilities on their doorstep rather than relying on the surrounding neighbourhood for routine needs.
Building Toward December 2028
Construction started in September 2026. The expected handover date is December 2028, a build window of roughly 27 months. Buyers entering now are going in at the beginning of the active construction phase, not at concept stage.
For buyers who cannot commit capital for two or more years, this timeline will not work. For those with planning flexibility, entering early in the build phase provides lead time to arrange financing and plan a move without pressure at the end of the build cycle. The December 2028 completion target falls within a planning horizon that suits off-plan buyers who are not constrained by immediate occupancy needs.
