Hudayriyat Island payment plan: Nawayef East's 40/60 explained
Nawayef East on Al Hudayriyat Island publishes a 40/60 payment plan: 10% down, 30% during construction, 60% at handover, on a price from AED 6.6 million. December 2028 is the stated delivery date.

The Hudayriyat Island payment plan published for Nawayef East, by Modon Properties, splits into three stages: 10% at reservation, 30% during construction, and 60% at handover, a structure commonly summarised as 40/60. The starting price is AED 6.6 million, and the stated delivery date is December 2028.
The three stages in AED
On the published starting price of AED 6.6 million, the three stages work out to AED 660,000 at reservation (10%), AED 1,980,000 during construction (30%), and AED 3,960,000 at handover (60%). These figures apply to the entry price only; a larger villa typology within Nawayef East carries a different total and therefore different stage amounts.
What the price buys at entry
Nawayef East is a hillside villa community on terrain that rises to roughly 60 metres, with skyline views back toward Abu Dhabi. The collection is organised in three tiers: East Hill Homes (4 and 5 bedroom villas, 370 to 468 square metres), East Hill Heights (5 to 7 bedroom villas), and East Hill Mansions (6 to 8 bedrooms). The AED 6.6 million entry price applies to the smallest configuration available at the time our fiche was checked.
Community facilities tied to the plan
The development includes jogging trails, a swimming pool, a mosque, a gym, a play area, a clubhouse, tennis courts and a park, shared across the gated, low-density community. These facilities are part of the overall Nawayef East offer rather than billed separately within the payment plan.
Registration cost on top of the plan
Abu Dhabi's DARI platform sets a 2% registration fee on the contract value for an off-plan unit, registered by the developer, plus a 400 AED Electronic Administrative Services Allowance before 5% VAT. On the AED 6.6 million entry price, 2% works out to AED 132,000. Which party pays this fee is set out in the sale and purchase agreement.
A quick reference table
| Stage | Share | Amount on AED 6.6 million |
|---|---|---|
| Reservation | 10% | AED 660,000 |
| During construction | 30% | AED 1,980,000 |
| Handover | 60% | AED 3,960,000 |
| Delivery date | December 2028 | - |
Golden Visa threshold, for context
A property investment of at least AED 2 million opens the door to a Golden Visa application, subject to conditions confirmed by the authorities. Nawayef East's AED 6.6 million entry price sits well above that threshold, though eligibility is still confirmed with the authorities rather than assumed from the price alone.

Al Hudayriyat Island's ownership framework
Modon states that its residential projects located in key investment zones such as Al Hudayriyat Island and Al Reem Island are offered on a freehold basis, open to full ownership by all nationalities. This applies to Nawayef East specifically, alongside the island's broader positioning as a freehold development zone.
A disclosure repeated on the destination page
The official Abu Dhabi destination page states that project locations are approximate and that your adviser should be asked for the exact plot; the Nawayef East fiche confirms separately that current availability and unit-specific terms are set by your adviser, not assumed from general marketing material.
Why the three villa tiers matter for the payment plan
The 40/60 plan applies across all three tiers, East Hill Homes, Heights, and Mansions, but the AED 6.6 million entry price is tied specifically to the smallest tier, East Hill Homes. A larger villa in the Heights or Mansions tier carries a higher total price, and therefore higher instalment amounts at each of the same three percentage stages.
What is not published beyond the headline structure
The exact calendar dates for the 30% construction-stage instalment, as opposed to a single lump 30% figure, and any penalty for late payment by the buyer are not confirmed in our records; your adviser requests these details from Modon directly once a villa tier is chosen.
