Open-plan living, private balcony and walk-in wardrobe. The entry point into Saadiyat Cultural District.
Larger family layouts, with maid's room options available in selected residences.
Duplex at the pinnacle of each tower. Double-height living, full-height glazing, mezzanine bedroom.
The largest homes in the development, planned around space, light and long-term family living.
Why some prices say "on request". Aldar releases pricing for 2 and 3 bedroom homes, Kanso Lofts and Kanso Residences per unit, because it changes with floor level, layout and whether the residence faces the Cultural District, the courtyards or the Arabian Gulf. We send you the live figures rather than publishing an estimate that would be wrong by the time you read it. Residences range from approximately 70 to 208 sqm (753 – 2,239 sq ft).

Project Overview
Sei Saadiyat brings together contemporary architecture, wellness amenities, landscaped courtyards and cultural proximity in a single low-rise community on Saadiyat Island.
Designed by Jacobs with interiors by Kettle Collective, the development comprises six buildings arranged around gardens, with the tallest rising 17 floors. The name Sei refers to stillness — the organising idea behind the architecture, the landscape and the amenity programme.
The Concept
Sei Saadiyat is arranged around landscaped courtyards, a Zen Garden and a Serenity Pool. Architecture, planting, water and light are used together to create a quieter kind of island living — a few minutes from the museums of Saadiyat Cultural District.
Residences
1 and 2 bedroom apartments, 3 bedroom Kanso Residences and 2 bedroom Kanso Lofts, from approximately 70 sqm to 208 sqm (753 – 2,239 sq ft).

Indicative only. The preset prices for 2 bedroom, Kanso Loft and Kanso Residence homes are illustrative starting points for the calculation — actual pricing is released per unit by Aldar. The monthly figure spreads the construction balance evenly to handover; the official schedule sets specific milestone dates. Government registration fees and service charges are not included.

Buyer Guide
What international buyers researching apartments for sale in Saadiyat Island usually want to establish first.
Prices at Sei Saadiyat start from AED 2.95 million for a 1 bedroom apartment. Pricing for 2 bedroom apartments, 3 bedroom Kanso Residences and 2 bedroom Kanso Lofts is released per unit by Aldar Properties, because it varies with floor level, layout and whether the residence faces the Cultural District, the courtyards or the Arabian Gulf.
Request the current price list and an advisor will send the live figures rather than an estimate.
The official floor plans cover four 1 bedroom types, two 2 bedroom types, two 2 bedroom plus maid's layouts, the 3 bedroom Kanso Residence and both Kanso Loft configurations — single floor and duplex. Floor plates for each of the six buildings show orientation and view for every apartment.
Request the official floor plans to compare layouts before you choose.
Saadiyat Island is one of Abu Dhabi's designated investment zones, where non-UAE nationals are permitted to purchase property. Sei Saadiyat sits in the Cultural District itself — 1.3 km from Zayed National Museum and 1.7 km from Louvre Abu Dhabi — rather than on the island's periphery.
Land available for new premium residential development inside the district is finite, which is the structural argument most investors are weighing.
Buying off plan at Sei Saadiyat means a 5% initial down payment, 50% spread across construction and 50% at handover in Q4 2030 — a five-year horizon on a modest entry. Off-plan purchases in Abu Dhabi are registered with ADREC, and payments follow the schedule in the developer's sale and purchase agreement.
Our advisors take international buyers through the process remotely, from reservation to registration.
Aldar is Abu Dhabi's largest listed developer, with a delivery record spanning Saadiyat Island, Yas Island, Al Reem and Al Raha. At Sei Saadiyat it has paired architecture and landscape design by Jacobs with interiors by Kettle Collective, across six buildings arranged around landscaped courtyards.
For buyers weighing developer risk on a 2030 completion, that track record is the relevant data point.
The Cultural District is home to Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, teamLab Phenomena, the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi and the forthcoming Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, alongside Manarat Al Saadiyat and Berklee Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi city centre, the Corniche and Al Reem Island are each roughly 12 minutes away.
Residents also have Saadiyat Grove, Mamsha Al Saadiyat and the island's beaches within a short drive.

Sei Saadiyat is offered on a 50/50 payment plan: 50% is payable during construction and 50% at handover, starting with a 5% initial down payment. The individual instalment milestones and dates are set out in the official reservation and sale documents — we will send you the complete schedule on request.
The initial down payment is 5% of the purchase price.
Estimated handover is Q4 2030. As with any off-plan development, the completion date is an estimate provided by the developer and is confirmed in the sale documents.
Sei Saadiyat offers 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, 3 bedroom Kanso Residences and 2 bedroom Kanso Lofts, with maid's room options in selected residences. Kanso Lofts are duplex homes positioned at the pinnacle of each tower, with double-height living and full-height glazing.
Residence sizes range from approximately 70 sqm to 208 sqm (753 – 2,239 sq ft).
Saadiyat Island is one of Abu Dhabi's designated investment zones, where non-UAE nationals are permitted to purchase property. The exact ownership structure and title type that applies to Sei Saadiyat should be confirmed in writing from the official reservation and sale documents before you reserve a unit.
Request the investment pack and our advisors will provide the developer's written confirmation of the ownership terms.
Note: ownership terms are confirmed by the developer in the official sale documents. We do not publish legal confirmations we have not verified.
Saadiyat Island is Abu Dhabi's cultural destination, home to Louvre Abu Dhabi, Zayed National Museum, teamLab Phenomena and the forthcoming Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, alongside leading international schools and universities, beaches and resorts. The amount of land available for premium residential development on the island is limited.
Published market data provides context: the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre reported AED 13.3bn of Saadiyat residential sales in H1 2026, and Knight Frank recorded Saadiyat apartment values up around 21% year on year in July 2026. These are historic figures, not a forecast — property values can fall as well as rise.
Both are the signature homes at Sei Saadiyat. Kanso Lofts are 2 bedroom duplexes positioned at the pinnacle of each tower, with full-height glazed façades, double-height living areas and a mezzanine level above. Kanso Residences are the 3 bedroom homes and the largest residences in the development.
Floor plans for both are available on request, including the single-floor and two-floor Kanso Loft configurations.
International buyers routinely purchase Abu Dhabi off plan property remotely. In outline: you select a unit from current availability, sign the reservation form, pay the initial 5% down payment, and the sale and purchase agreement is then registered with the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC). Subsequent instalments follow the payment schedule.
Our advisors handle the process end to end for buyers in Europe, the GCC, the UK and further afield, including live video walkthroughs of the sales gallery.
Annual service charges and government registration fees for Sei Saadiyat are set out in Aldar's official documentation. We do not publish figures we cannot point to in writing.
Request the investment pack and an advisor will send the complete cost breakdown — purchase price, applicable fees and the payment schedule together — so you can model the total cost of ownership accurately.
Mortgage availability for off plan purchases depends on the lender, your residency status, your income profile and the stage of construction. UAE banks treat off plan and completed property differently, and terms for non-resident buyers differ again.
Rather than quote a loan-to-value figure that may not apply to you, our advisors will walk you through what is realistically available for your circumstances.
Sei Saadiyat sits within walking and short driving distance of Louvre Abu Dhabi (1.7 km), Zayed National Museum (1.3 km), teamLab Phenomena (1.6 km), the Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi (1.5 km), Manarat Al Saadiyat (1.2 km) and the Abrahamic Family House (1.0 km), with Guggenheim Abu Dhabi (2.3 km) to come.
Saadiyat Grove, Mamsha Al Saadiyat, Saadiyat Beach and the island's resorts and golf club are all a few minutes away, and the development itself has retail, cafés and family dining at ground level.
