One&Only Private Residences Al Maryah Island: Inside Abu Dhabi's 230-Metre Branded Tower
One&Only is best known for its resorts: Reethi Rah in the Maldives, One&Only Royal Mirage in Dubai and Le Saint Géran in Mauritius. On 1 October 2026 the brand announced One&Only Private Residences Al Maryah Island: a 44-floor tower on Al Maryah Island, the capital's financial district. This guide explains what has been revealed and why it stands out.
A Partnership Behind the Development
Presented at LIVEX 2026, the development combines the expertise of three major names:
- TARAF, Yas Holding's real estate division and a UAE developer focused on design-conscious residential destinations.
- Mubadala Investment Company, the master developer responsible for the wider evolution of Al Maryah Island as a destination for finance, healthcare, hospitality and premium retail.
- Kerzner International, the hospitality group behind the One&Only and Atlantis brands and their global portfolio.
The three-way collaboration brings together the development platform, the destination expertise behind Al Maryah Island and the hospitality identity associated with One&Only. For prospective owners, that combination is central to the project's branded-residence proposition.
Architecture and Design
The One&Only Al Maryah tower is planned at approximately 230 metres in height over 44 floors. Its elevated position is intended to frame views across the Arabian Gulf, the island's waterways and Abu Dhabi's evolving skyline. The design language combines warm terracotta hues, champagne-inspired metal finishes and extensive glazing to create a refined exterior that changes character with the natural light.
Residence Collection
The One&Only residences in Abu Dhabi are planned across several formats, giving buyers different ways to experience the brand's residential concept:
One-, Two- and Three-Bedroom Residences
The principal collection comprises one-, two- and three-bedroom residences. These homes place residents close to the island's commercial core, with ADGM and The Galleria within convenient reach while providing the privacy and services associated with a branded address.
Duplex Residences
Arranged over two floors, the duplex residences offer additional volume and separation between living spaces. Their format is suited to residents seeking a more expansive home environment while remaining in the heart of Abu Dhabi.
The Signature Signature penthouse
At the summit of the building, a single penthouse forms the collection's most exclusive residence. Its one-of-one status gives it a distinct position within the project and separates it from the repeated residential layouts below.
A Different Approach to Shared Amenities
Rather than concentrating communal facilities into a conventional podium amenity floor, the shared spaces are conceived as an elevated environment above the city. The planned experience brings together landscaped areas, outdoor terraces, wellness facilities and spaces for residents to meet and host guests:
- Elevated gardens creating landscaped spaces above the city
- Open-air terraces oriented towards the waterfront and Abu Dhabi skyline
- Wellness areas inspired by the service-led character of One&Only resorts
- Social spaces designed for gatherings, relaxation and entertaining
- A direct connection to The Galleria providing convenient access to retail, dining and leisure
The Al Maryah Island Lifestyle
Al Maryah Island brings together business, upscale retail, healthcare and hospitality within a prominent waterfront setting. From the One&Only Al Maryah Island location, residents are positioned close to several important destinations:
- The Galleria Al Maryah Island, directly connected to the residence tower and home to luxury retail, restaurants and waterfront experiences
- Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the island's international financial centre and business hub
- Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, a major specialist healthcare destination nearby
- Downtown Abu Dhabi, accessible by road via the connecting bridge
The concentration of workplaces, retail, restaurants and healthcare within and around the island creates a highly connected urban lifestyle. This proximity is particularly relevant for residents working in the financial district as well as buyers who value having everyday destinations close to home.
Who May Consider One&Only Al Maryah Island?
- International purchasers: Al Maryah Island is a designated investment zone where buyers of different nationalities can purchase property, subject to applicable Abu Dhabi regulations.
- Business and finance professionals seeking a residence close to their offices at ADGM.
- Branded-residence buyers attracted to the One&Only identity and the limited availability of larger formats, including duplexes and the single penthouse.
- Families looking for generous living options, hospitality-led services and convenient access to Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.
