Two hills built for the view, and a third on the way
Modon raised two hills out of flat reclaimed land on Hudayriyat Island and set the homes on them in rings. The Homes sit on the lower rings, the Heights above them and the Mansions at the top, so each ring looks out over the roofs of the ring below.

Heights: Nawayef West 45 m, Nawayef East 55 m, South Hill 65 m. Home counts are the plots on Modon's interactive map, 8 October 2026. Handover dates are Modon's scheduled dates from its August 2025 availability pack.
Secure today's price per sq ft on West and East. South Hill will cost more.
Today you can buy on Nawayef West and East at , the median resale ask across my inventory. South Hill, Modon's third hill, is the highest of the three at 65 metres, reached through the golf course, with the sea on three sides, and in my view it will launch well above that. In my experience, launch prices per sq ft on Hudayriyat only go one way, and Modon's Golf Estates sold more than AED 13bn within days of launch.
When South Hill is priced, every home on West and East is measured against it. Buy before that happens and you hold the lower entry price per sq ft, a known plot and an estimated March 2029 handover.
For buyers who want South Hill itself, I am advising on bulk and priority allocations at launch. Join my priority list and you will hear the release, the pricing and the plan before the public does.
| Resale today | Third Hill at launch | |
|---|---|---|
| Handover | Mar 2029, estimated | Later, set by Modon |
| Plot | Known, you choose it | Allocated at launch |
| Cash on day one | The seller's paid-to-date, plus the premium and fees | Expected to be a low deposit |
| Price per sq ft | Today's resale asks | Higher, supported by fresh payment plans |
| Construction | Contract awarded, underway | Not started |
South Hill's position and views are as described to me by the developer; its name, pricing and payment plan are not yet published. My expectation on launch pricing is a view, not a forecast.
Every ring sits above the one in front
Modon prices East Hill in tiers at 15 m and at 25 to 35 m. Each step up the slope lifts the view line clear of the roofs below, which is the whole point of building a hill.

Hudayriyat Island, minutes from the city
Hudayriyat sits just off Abu Dhabi island, joined by bridge, with the capital's skyline across the water to the north and the open Gulf to the south and west. The Hills share the island with its sports and leisure destinations.

All 944 homes, plot by plot
I traced every plot on both Hills from Modon's own interactive map: its collection, its plot size, which way it faces, and whether anyone backs onto it. These are the patterns that decide which homes hold their value.
The unit mix
West carries nearly twice the Mansions. East is mostly Homes.

Median plot, with the smallest and largest. East gives each Heights and Homes plot more land.
Which way the homes face
The direction each home faces, from Modon's own orientation of every plot, with the number in each wedge. Both hills share one scale. On West the homes face mainly north-east and south-west, along its two long flanks; East faces mainly north, north-east, south and south-west. North looks across the water to the city skyline; south and west face the open Gulf and the sunset.

Every home on each Hill by bedrooms. Most Homes are 4 bedrooms; the Mansions are 7 and 8.

Facing direction is Modon's orientation of each plot; row and end-of-row are my analysis of the plot outlines. Three Mansion plots on Nawayef West carry Modon's Mega Mansion code with no published record, two of them double plots at the ends of the south-east row; I count them as Mega Mansions and estimate their size from the outline. Modon's 19 December 2025 construction contract covers 735 villas across the two Hills; the map shows 944 plots.
What is on the market today, before South Hill reprices it
Resales I can put you into on both Hills. Filter by collection, type, Hill, price or the cash you want to put in on day one. I keep the plot numbers back until we speak. Tap "Run the numbers" to load any of them into the calculator.
Asking and original prices as held in my inventory on 8 October 2026, subject to verification with each seller. Prices, areas and plot sizes are rounded so no home or owner can be identified. Cash on day one assumes 25% paid to Modon, as in the calculator. Per square foot is on Modon's saleable area, which includes any basement.
What you pay on day one, what you owe, and what you could make
A resale on the Hills is bought partly paid. You pay the seller what they have paid Modon plus their premium, take over the rest of Modon's plan, whose instalments fall due on construction milestones rather than dates, and pay the transfer costs. Move the sliders to see your cash on day one, every payment to handover and your return if you sell at handover.

At handover, if you sell
Your cash, from day one to handover

The gap between the value and Modon's remaining balance is your equity. Hover or tap along the chart to read any month.
Every instalment is tied to a construction milestone, not a date
Modon bills each instalment when the work reaches a stage: start of construction, half the structure, structure complete, façade, completion certificate, then handover. If the build runs late, your payments wait for it. Your money is never ahead of the construction, so a delay pushes your cash out later rather than leaving it idle in the project, and your return on equity is protected.
Dates in the schedule below are Modon's estimates for each milestone, stretched in line with the handover date you set.
Every payment, in order
I do bulk deals
Families, family offices and funds buy through me in volume: several homes on the Hills in one negotiation, or a block allocation when South Hill launches. You put in a fraction of the price on day one and control the whole asset, so volume is where the real money is made.
A bulk purchase usually improves your position, because I negotiate with your buying power and the combined buying power of my other clients. Tell me how many homes and which types, and I will take it to the sellers and to Modon as one conversation.
No outcome is guaranteed. Resale prices are agreed seller by seller; allocation, pricing and any bulk terms at launch are at Modon's discretion.

Questions I am asked about the Hills
Straight answers, then the right plot
We talk through the project, the financing, the market and the alternatives, including whether to buy a resale now or wait for South Hill.
For the plot I would take, with its paid-to-date position, the premium, every cost and the payments left to Modon.
We agree terms with the seller, take the transfer through Modon and register it, and I stay with you to handover.
