Al Mamoura, Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi Mira Hills is a 560-hectare master-planned city in Al Mamoura, developed by Mira Developments in partnership with AD Ports Group, with a master plan by BIG — Bjarke Ingels Group.
Planned across five phases, the city brings together residential districts, championship golf, lagoons and private beaches, a vast central park, education, healthcare, five-star hospitality, business, retail and culture. Around 70,000 people are expected to live here, with a further 50,000 arriving each day for work, education and other activities.
Selected freehold development opportunities are available for apartment buildings, villas and townhouses, with entry from AED 20 million.
An 18-hole championship golf course forms one of the defining landscapes of Abu Dhabi Mira Hills. Around it, a 5 km network of seawater lagoons extends through the residential districts, with eight private beaches integrated into the waterfront.
At the centre of the master plan, more than 460,000 m² of parkland creates a major green destination for residents and visitors, connecting neighbourhoods through landscaped public spaces and walking routes.
Abu Dhabi Mira Hills is planned as more than a residential community. Two universities and research facilities, three schools, eight kindergartens and a 200-bed hospital place education and healthcare within the city itself. Three five-star hotels and resorts introduce hospitality and branded living, while business, retail and cultural destinations bring activity throughout the day.
The result is a city designed around everyday life rather than a collection of isolated residential projects.
The wider master plan includes a 320,000 m² landmark retail and entertainment destination with a 700 m indoor ski slope, alongside The Cube — a 100 m mixed-use business hub created for the international real estate industry.
The Museum of the UAE and a multi-purpose stadium add cultural and public destinations, while the pedestrian-focused upper level separates everyday public life from roads, parking and servicing below.
Across the city, 42 km of walking trails and 21 km of cycling routes connect neighbourhoods, parks and key destinations.
Selected locations within Abu Dhabi Mira Hills are available to regional and international developers for apartment, villa and townhouse projects. Each opportunity comes with a defined location, permitted use, land area and buildable allowance, while individual developments retain their own identity and are delivered under the developer’s own name.
Different parts of the master plan offer distinct settings — from golf and waterfront districts to park-facing neighbourhoods and more urban locations.

Abu Dhabi Mira Hills is located in Al Mamoura with direct access to the E11, placing the city between Abu Dhabi and Dubai and within easy reach of both major international airports serving the corridor.
Downtown Abu Dhabi and Downtown Dubai are each approximately 40 minutes away, while Zayed International Airport and Al Maktoum International Airport are around 30 minutes from the development.
Within Abu Dhabi Mira Hills, neighbourhoods are planned around everyday accessibility, with parks, childcare and public transport within a short walk of residential areas.
Abu Dhabi combines long-term urban growth with an increasingly international property market. Foreign nationals can hold freehold real estate within designated investment zones, while both investment and development activity across the emirate continue to expand.
In 2025, Abu Dhabi recorded AED 142 billion in property transactions across 42,814 deals. During the same year, 56 new real estate development projects were registered, while foreign direct investment in the property market reached AED 8.2 billion from investors representing more than 100 nationalities.
Selected freehold opportunities are available across Abu Dhabi Mira Hills for apartment buildings, villas and townhouses.
Each location sits within a defined part of the master plan and comes with its own development parameters, allowing partners to select the residential format, scale and setting that best align with their strategy.

Developers can retain full control of their project or work with Mira Developments at the level that best suits their experience, internal capabilities and market strategy.
Four development models are available:
Acquire and develop the project independently, with design reviewed for alignment with the wider master plan.
Partner with Mira Developments across design, construction, branding and sales under an agreed commercial structure.
Remain the developer of record while Mira Developments manages the project through its key stages.
Engage Mira Developments for specific parts of the development process, including approvals and permitting.
Abu Dhabi Mira Hills combines selected freehold development opportunities with a master plan by BIG and more than AED 55 billion in planned investment across the wider city.
For individual developers, the proposition extends beyond the land itself: each project becomes part of a destination with infrastructure, landscape, education, healthcare, hospitality and major leisure destinations planned at city scale.
Development opportunities are available while Abu Dhabi Mira Hills itself is taking shape.
Phase 1 covers approximately 1.3 km² and is planned as a complete district with residential development, education, healthcare, retail, dining and sports infrastructure.
Projects entering at this stage therefore develop alongside the wider city as its landscape, institutions and destinations become established.
Roads, utilities, public realm and landscape form part of the wider development programme, together with the golf course, lagoons, parks, education, healthcare and hospitality.
This allows individual developers to concentrate capital and expertise on their own residential product while becoming part of a much larger urban environment.
Developers already established in the UAE can retain full control of their project. International groups entering the market can instead draw on Mira Developments for approvals, design, construction, branding or complete project delivery.
This creates a route into Abu Dhabi that can be adapted to the experience and capabilities of each development partner.
Around 70,000 people are expected to live at Abu Dhabi Mira Hills, while universities, healthcare, hotels, offices, retail and other destinations are projected to bring a further 50,000 people into the city each day.
Together with direct E11 connectivity to Abu Dhabi and Dubai, this gives individual residential projects access to demand beyond the community’s permanent population alone.
