Abu Dhabi has just set a new benchmark in ultra-luxury living with the unveiling of the Mandarin Oriental Residences Saadiyat Cultural District. Developed by Aldar, one of the UAE’s most prestigious real estate developers, the project introduces the Legend Collection—two crown-jewel penthouses priced from $45 million (AED 165 million).
Architecture and Design Excellence
The residences are housed within a Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG)-designed tower, blending visionary architecture with timeless elegance. Interiors are crafted by Lillian Wu Studio, the award-winning New York–based design firm celebrated for creating refined, modern spaces. The result is a harmonious blend of Middle Eastern grandeur and international sophistication.
Unmatched Space and Privacy
Each of the penthouses spans nearly 22,000 square feet across a single floor. Owners will enjoy private elevator access, soaring ceilings, and open-plan layouts that capture sweeping views of the Arabian Sea and the Zayed National Museum. Frameless curved glass walls ensure an uninterrupted connection with Abu Dhabi’s glittering skyline.
