The starting price of Baccarat Residences is 12000000 AED.
Baccarat Residences is located on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, within the Saadiyat Cultural District near museums and waterfront attractions.
Baccarat Residences Saadiyat is a freehold property in Abu Dhabi, granting full ownership rights to buyers and long-term investment security.
Baccarat Residences Saadiyat presents a strong investment case due to its extreme exclusivity and location in Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Cultural District. The project includes only 77 residences, which limits supply and supports long-term value retention in a low-density luxury market. The development introduces branded residences by Baccarat and is developed by Aldar Properties, with architectural design by Sou Fujimoto Architects. This combination strengthens its positioning in the ultra-luxury segment and adds credibility to the asset’s long-term performance. Amenities and living standards focus on privacy, cultural access, and high-end residential comfort. The design emphasizes open spaces, natural light, and direct visual connections to major landmarks, including the Louvre Abu Dhabi, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, and the Arabian Sea. This permanent view corridor increases desirability and supports resale value. The project is embedded within a global cultural zone, placing residents within walking distance of museums, waterfront promenades, and curated public spaces. This environment attracts long-term international demand from high-net-worth buyers seeking branded, design-led properties in landmark locations. With limited inventory, branded positioning, and a prime cultural waterfront address, Baccarat Residences functions as a long-term capital preservation asset with strong exclusivity-driven investment appeal.
Baccarat Residences Saadiyat is owned and developed by Aldar Properties PJSC. Aldar manages the full development process, including planning, construction oversight, and final delivery within the Saadiyat Cultural District in Abu Dhabi. The company is responsible for executing the project according to its branded luxury concept, ensuring design quality, structural standards, and integration within the waterfront cultural master plan.
Baccarat Residences Saadiyat is scheduled for delivery in September 2029. This date marks the completion of construction and the handover of all residences within the Saadiyat Cultural District in Abu Dhabi. At that time, the development will be fully finished, including interiors, shared facilities, and surrounding landscaping, allowing owners to take possession of their units.
Baccarat Residences Saadiyat offers a limited collection of ultra-luxury homes designed for exclusive living within Abu Dhabi’s Saadiyat Cultural District. The development includes apartments with 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom configurations, along with 2-bedroom penthouse units. The 2-bedroom apartments provide a compact luxury format designed for individuals or couples who prioritize design quality and location over size. These units are planned with efficient layouts and premium finishes that reflect the branded residential concept. The 3-bedroom apartments increase internal space and provide separated living and private zones, making them suitable for families or long-term residents seeking comfort and exclusivity in a cultural waterfront setting. The 4-bedroom apartments represent the largest standard residences in the project. These units are structured for high-end family living, with expanded layouts, multiple ensuite bedrooms, and larger living and dining areas designed for privacy and comfort. In addition to the apartments, the project includes 2-bedroom penthouses positioned at the top levels. These penthouses offer elevated views of the surrounding cultural landmarks, including museums and the Arabian Sea, along with enhanced privacy and larger internal living areas. All unit types are part of a very limited collection of 77 residences, positioned in one of Abu Dhabi’s most valuable cultural districts. Pricing details are not released yet and are listed as “coming soon,” which reflects the early sales phase of the development.
