The address
A family home with the sea at the end of the street.
Talay is built around the things a family does every day — the school run, the beach after school, the evening by the water — and puts each of them within reach of the front door.
The beach
Within a kilometre of your front door, on a district with 8 km of beachfront coastline.
The marina
Moments from the marina and yacht club — 350 docks, built for yachts of up to 101 metres.
School run
A school and nursery within walking distance, and NYU Abu Dhabi nearby.
The culture
Close to the Saadiyat Cultural District, with the Louvre and Guggenheim Abu Dhabi a short drive away.
The villas
Crafted to be unforgettable.
Generous 4 to 6-bedroom layouts with private backyards give families room to grow. Contemporary architecture with a choice of façades gives each villa its own character along the street.

Inspired by nature
More time outdoors.

Questions
Talay, answered.
What is Talay?
