Bashayer Villas Phase 2: A Villa Community Taking Shape on Al Hudayriat Island
Who Built It and What It Is
Modon Properties is the developer behind Bashayer Villas Phase 2. Modon is a Abu Dhabi government-linked master developer, which matters here. They are not a speculative builder. They deliver large-scale communities and have the institutional backing to see projects through. This is the second phase of an established villa community on Al Hudayriat Island, which tells you the first phase found enough buyers to justify a follow-on release.
The project is straightforward: villas, one property type, one price point.
Al Hudayriat Island and What Living There Actually Means
Al Hudayriat Island sits just off the western edge of Abu Dhabi's main island. It is not downtown Abu Dhabi, and it is not meant to be. The island has been developed with leisure and low-density living in mind. There is already an established beach, cycling tracks, and outdoor activity infrastructure that Abu Dhabi has invested in significantly.
For someone living here, the practical picture is this. You are roughly 15 to 20 minutes from central Abu Dhabi depending on traffic. That is workable for most professionals. The trade-off is that you are choosing a quieter, more self-contained environment over urban convenience. Families and residents who want space, greenery, and access to outdoor amenities without the density of city living are the natural fit.
From an investment angle, the island is still maturing. That means some services will catch up over time rather than being fully in place on day one. Buyers should factor that in.
One Price, One Product
At AED 7,200,000, there is no spread to explain. Every villa in this phase carries the same price. That is unusual and worth understanding. It most likely means the units are uniform in size, layout, or both. There is no entry-level option and no premium tier. The buyer profile here is specific: someone who wants a villa on this island at this price, without needing to trade off between configurations.
This is not a project where you shop around within the development. You either want it at this number or you do not.
The Amenity Set
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Fitness and Wellness | Gymnasium, Indoor Swimming Pool, Shared Spa |
| Dining and Retail | Restaurants, Retail Facilities |
| Community and Social | Community Hall, Children's Play Area |
| Outdoor and Landscaping | Landscaped Gardens |
The indoor pool and shared spa together signal that this community targets year-round active living, not just a seasonal amenity package. Eight amenities across a villa project of this type is a reasonable range. The community hall and children's play area point clearly toward families as the primary resident profile. This is not a lock-up-and-leave investor product. It is designed for people who intend to be there.
Getting In for 10%
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down Payment | 10% |
| During Construction | 40% |
| On Handover | 50% |
Ten percent down to secure a villa at AED 7.2 million means your initial commitment is AED 720,000. That is low for a product at this price level, and it lowers the barrier to entry meaningfully. The bulk of the payment, 50%, falls at handover. Buyers need to plan their financing well in advance of the March 2029 completion date. There is no post-handover payment plan, so if you are relying on a mortgage, the approval and structure needs to be in place before keys are handed over. Cash flow planning around that final payment is the main financial consideration here.
The Timeline and What It Means Now
Construction started in March 2026. Completion is scheduled for March 2029. That is a three-year build window, which is standard for a villa community of this scale. For a buyer entering now, you are at the very beginning of the construction period. That means maximum time to manage staged payments, but also three years before you see a return on a rental investment or move in. Off-plan buyers should be comfortable with that horizon and confident in Modon's track record of delivery before committing.
