Project general facts
Riviera Residences is a new waterfront residential destination in Abu Dhabi, conceived as a refined interpretation of Mediterranean living adapted to the Emirates. The project is defined by its calm elegance, seamless connection to the sea, and a strong sense of place, drawing inspiration from the coastal lifestyle while integrating contemporary urban design. Positioned on Al Reem Island, it offers residents panoramic views of the water, skyline, and marina, creating an atmosphere of quiet luxury and everyday resort-style living.
The development is designed as a lifestyle-focused community where leisure, wellness, and social interaction are central to daily life.

With its emphasis on balance, privacy, and understated sophistication, Riviera Residences presents itself as a landmark address that combines tranquility with the energy of Abu Dhabi’s evolving waterfront.
Residences are finished in a contemporary style with refined, high-quality materials and an emphasis on light, texture, and proportion. Interiors feature floor-to-ceiling glazing, elegant surfaces, and carefully selected finishes that reflect a calm, coastal palette. Kitchens are fully fitted with integrated cabinetry, stone countertops, and built-in appliances. The project is delivered unfurnished, allowing residents to personalize their living spaces while benefiting from premium base specifications throughout.
