About Riviera Residences II
A waterfront address in Abu Dhabi, half paid at handover
Riviera Residences II is the second phase of Mered’s waterfront development on Al Reem Island, inside Abu Dhabi Global Market. Pritzker Prize laureates Herzog & de Meuron designed the G+34 towers, and the mother-of-pearl facades recall the Gulf’s pearl-diving past. 404 homes: one- to three-bedroom apartments from AED 2.2M, eight bay villas, six sky villas, a duplex and one penthouse. Every home looks onto one of three views: the Al Reem skyline, the Sea and Dolphin Islands, or Saadiyat. At the foot of the towers, 4,913 sq m of pools, padel and wellness, and a promenade with cafés and shops. Book with 5%, pay 50% at handover in Q2 2030.
