Sobha City Abu Dhabi is a visionary master-planned development by Sobha Realty, redefining urban living in the UAE. Located in Al Bahiya, just minutes from Yas Island, this project introduces a fully integrated urban ecosystem where lifestyle, wellness, and community come together seamlessly.

Designed as a self-sustaining township, Sobha City features over 60% open and green spaces, more than 50,000 trees, and a 20 km wellness loop, creating a balanced environment that promotes health and well-being. The masterplan connects marina living, beachfront experiences, and forest-inspired neighborhoods within one cohesive city.

At the heart of the concept are three pillars: Live, Connect, and Restore. Homes are designed with light, privacy, and proportion, offering a wide range of options from 1 and 2-bedroom apartments to luxurious 4 to 6-bedroom villas. The community encourages connection through tree-lined promenades, waterfront walkways, retail spaces, and social courtyards, while nature plays a central role with green corridors, shaded pathways, and water features integrated into daily life.

Sobha City launches with Phase 1 featuring three Cluster, each offering a unique lifestyle:

  • The Orchard – Stand alone villas, Premium estate villas (4 to 6 bedrooms) with private pools, lifts, and expansive green views, starting from AED 9.05M.

  • The Terraces – Elegant garden villas and townhouses (3 to 4 bedrooms) with private gardens and open terraces, starting from AED 4.96M.

  • River Cove Residences – Modern waterfront apartments (1 to 2 bedrooms) with panoramic views and direct promenade access, starting from AED 1.31M.

Phase 1 includes only 400 units, making it a limited and exclusive investment opportunity. The project offers 100% freehold ownership for all nationalities, making it ideal for both local and international buyers. Investors benefit from a flexible 60/40 payment plan, with just 20% booking, and the remaining spread across construction, ensuring strong cash flow management and investment flexibility. Sobha City is more than just a residential development—it is a new lifestyle destination in Abu Dhabi, where craftsmanship, sustainability, and modern living come together to create a future-ready community designed for generations.
