Bab Al Qasr Residence 77

Bab Al Qasr Residence 77 is a beachfront residential development by Burtville Developments, situated on Al Reem Island in Abu Dhabi. A single tower rising from a landscaped podium, it is currently in presale ahead of a December 2031 completion, offering five residences priced between AED 2.37 million and AED 6.7 million.

# The tower and its position on Al Reem Island

Al Reem Island sits just off Abu Dhabi's northeastern coastline, a district that has absorbed significant investment over the past decade and now holds some of the capital's most recognisable residential addresses. The island combines high-rise density with waterfront access, a pairing that suits both owner-occupiers and investors looking for rental demand from professionals and families who want proximity to the city without living inside it.

Burtville Developments has placed Residence 77 at the beachfront edge of the Bab Al Qasr site. The project operates as a single building, compact in unit count at five residences, which gives it a distinction that larger multi-tower schemes do not offer: a degree of privacy that is difficult to manufacture at scale.

The tower rises from a multi-level amenity podium framed by landscaped grounds, with a 600-metre outdoor circuit tracing the perimeter.

# Residences, layouts and finish

The five homes range from 875 to 3,000 square feet, spanning apartment and duplex formats. Both single-level and split-level plans are available, giving buyers a meaningful choice between compact efficiency and something closer to a house in the sky.

Every residence is delivered fully furnished. The specification includes parquet flooring, Siemens kitchen appliances, Roca sanitary ware, Samsung home technology, and furnishings from THE One. These are defined sourcing choices rather than vague references to premium materials, and they set a consistent baseline across all units.

For buyers purchasing as an investment, the turnkey delivery removes the friction of fit-out and sourcing, which matters particularly for those based outside the UAE.

# Amenities and resort infrastructure

The development centres on a dedicated amenity building rather than distributing facilities across a lobby or a single rooftop floor. That structural choice creates more usable space and separates daily wellness from living quarters.

# What the amenity offer includes

A rooftop infinity pool with views across the sea and skyline anchors the upper floors. Below, there is a full wellness floor covering a gym, steam and sauna rooms, and yoga spaces, alongside a co-working library. Outdoors, the podium accommodates cabana decks, firepit lounges, BBQ terraces, a padel court, a sky garden, and a running track. Children's play areas and direct beach access complete the picture.

The 600-metre outdoor circuit is a practical detail. That distance is enough for a meaningful morning run without leaving the building's grounds.

# Location and the Al Reem Island context

Al Reem Island gives residents fast access to Abu Dhabi's central business district, which sits across a short causeway. The island's own infrastructure has matured considerably: retail, healthcare, schools, and waterfront promenades are established rather than promised.

Abu Dhabi's urban development planning continues to extend Al Reem's connectivity, with additional parks and transport infrastructure in the pipeline. For buyers focused on long-term capital appreciation, that trajectory matters as much as the building itself.

# What this project offers a specific kind of buyer

Five residences in a single beachfront tower is an unusual configuration for Abu Dhabi. The project does not compete with large-scale residential complexes where common spaces are shared across hundreds of units. It competes, instead, with boutique addresses where the ratio of resident to amenity is deliberately favourable.

The price range, AED 2.37 million to AED 6.7 million, positions the project accessibly at entry level while reaching into territory that attracts buyers seeking a furnished, income-generating asset in the capital. The 2031 completion gives early purchasers time to plan, and the presale stage means pricing reflects that lead time.

For an international buyer prioritising Abu Dhabi over Dubai, often for reasons of relative quiet, stronger rental yields in certain segments, or proximity to specific employers and institutions, Residence 77 presents a contained, well-specified option with a defined beachfront address.
