Al Reem Island is located on the north-eastern fringe of Abu Dhabi. It is an oblong island with a land area of approximately 1,560 acres. The body of the island is carved out by two mangrove cavities encroaching from the northern and eastern flanks. It is bridged to the main island of Abu Dhabi at the point where the two are closest.
The master plan strategy uses the shape of the island to clearly define three main districts connected via a central, pivotal zone.

It is one of the 3 current investment zones available for foreigners.
Being located very near the existing central business district has created an attractive investment opportunity for international investors.
Spread across 6.5 million square meters, Al Reem has been planned to accommodate around 180,000 inhabitants living and working on the island.
Water activities will form a major part of the island’s lifestyle including sailing, fishing, water-skiing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and more.
The island will be connected to downtown Abu Dhabi by a series of bridges and a connection direct to the main Dubai Highway across nearby Saadiyat Island.

Master Developers at Al Reem Island
There are 3 master developers working concurrently on Al Reem Island:
Tamouh Investments – the largest of the developers, has 60% of the islh land. Their Phase 1 flagship project is “Marina Square”, with additional phases including “Marina Cove" and the "City of Lights" development.
Sorouh Real Estate – is a publicly listed company, developing 20% of the island (North-West Corner) in a development called "Shams Abu Dhabi". The project will be a mini-city development and will feature their landmark "Sky Tower".
Reem Investments – is developing the remaining 20% to the East of the island and is not developing land directly; rather, it has concentrated on selling off individual land plots and providing the infrastructure.
The New Master Plan at Al Reem Island
As of 25 October 2007, plots are virtually sold out from the master developers on Al Reem Island in the primary market. Demand is still very high, which is reflected in the increase in GFA pricing for secondary market plots.
Due to a variety of factors, which include Abu Dhabi Municipality, Civil Defense, and the Aviation Authorihity regulations, Al Reem Island has been rezoned and the proportion of Residential, Commercial and Retail space has been adjusted. The major alteration has seen a reduction in the amount of commercial property zoned for development. The immediate result of these changes has been an increase in demand for the available commercial zoned land. For example, a floor of commercial space in Addax Port could be purchased in February 2007 for AED 1,100 per square foot and during Cityscape-Dubai, in October 2007, a similar floor sold for over AED 2,000 per square feet. New projects, such as TAMEER and DAMAC, have been launched in excess of AED 2,000 per square foot for residential, and upwards of AED 2,500 for Offices/Commercial space. This reflects the increase in demand on Al Reem Island from local and international investors. The general feedback from the investor/end-user community to the new master plan has been extremely positive. The increase in green areas and decrease in amount of traffic, noise and other factors has insured an enhanced desirability to reside or work on Al Reem Island. The increase in exposure, created by Saadiyat Island, positioned as the cultural center of Abu Dhabi, has also provided Al Reem with marketing leverage.
