A new residential chapter is emerging on Jubail Island with the registration of Rimas, a new primary residential development comprising 316 villas and townhouses.
Officially registered on 7 August 2026, Rimas introduces a collection of two- to six-bedroom residences within Al Jubail Island, with the majority of the development dedicated to spacious four- and five-bedroom family homes.
The project adds new residential inventory to one of Abu Dhabi’s most distinctive low-density island communities and is expected to attract attention from both end users and investors as further launch details are announced.
What Is Rimas?
Rimas is a newly registered residential development located on Al Jubail Island, Abu Dhabi.
According to the official project registration, the development is described as a villa and townhouse compound consisting of 316 residential units.
The registered developer is JUBAIL ISLAND INVESTMENT – SOLE PROPRIETORSHIP L.L.C.
Rimas Residential Unit Breakdown
Rimas offers a residential mix ranging from two-bedroom homes to larger six-bedroom residences.
| Bedroom Type | Number of Units |
| 2 Bedrooms | 4 |
| 3 Bedrooms | 64 |
| 4 Bedrooms | 145 |
| 5 Bedrooms | 88 |
| 6 Bedrooms | 15 |
| Total | 316 |
The composition of the development shows a clear focus on larger family residences.
Four-bedroom homes represent the largest segment, with 145 units, followed by 88 five-bedroom residences. Together, these two categories account for almost 74% of the entire project.
Three-bedroom homes make up another 64 units, while the two-bedroom and six-bedroom categories are much more limited, with only four and 15 residences respectively.
This unit mix gives Rimas a distinctly family-oriented profile and differentiates it from higher-density residential developments dominated by apartments and smaller properties.
A New Addition to Jubail Island
Rimas will form part of the wider residential landscape of Jubail Island, a destination recognised for its low-density neighbourhoods, mangrove surroundings, waterfront environment and emphasis on spacious residential living.
Rather than being introduced as an isolated standalone development, Rimas benefits from its position within the broader Jubail Island community.
For buyers, this means the project can be considered not only for the individual homes it will offer, but also for its place within an established island destination that continues to develop and mature.
The addition of 316 new villas and townhouses also expands the selection available to families seeking larger residences within Jubail Island.
Villas and Townhouses
An important detail in the official registration is the description of Rimas as a “villa and townhouse compound.”
Although the project’s registered type is listed as Villas, the official description confirms that the development will contain both villas and townhouses.
The exact allocation between the two property types has not yet been disclosed.
For now, the most accurate description of the project is a residential community comprising 316 villas and townhouses.
Why Rimas Is Worth Watching
Several characteristics make Rimas an interesting addition to Abu Dhabi’s residential market.
Its relatively limited inventory of 316 homes creates a more focused residential community compared with larger master developments containing thousands of units.
The strong concentration of four- and five-bedroom residences also highlights the project’s emphasis on spacious family living.
Its Jubail Island location is another important factor. Buyers considering a new home within an established premium island community will eventually be able to compare Rimas directly with existing Jubail Island residences and resale opportunities.
The timing is equally notable. With its registration dated 7 August 2026, Rimas is one of the newest residential projects to emerge on Jubail Island.
What Is Still to Be Announced?
As Rimas is newly registered, several important commercial and development details have not yet been officially confirmed.
These include pricing, payment plans, property sizes, plot sizes, floor plans, handover dates, the detailed masterplan, the exact villa and townhouse distribution, and project-specific amenities.
These details will ultimately determine how Rimas is positioned within the Jubail Island market and how it compares with other premium villa developments across Abu Dhabi.
Until official information is released, buyers should be cautious about relying on unofficial prices, layouts or payment-plan details.
Rimas and the Abu Dhabi Villa Market
Rimas arrives as Abu Dhabi continues to expand its selection of premium family-oriented residential communities.
With only 316 residences and almost three-quarters of the development dedicated to four- and five-bedroom homes, the project has a clear emphasis on larger properties suitable for family living.
For end users, Rimas could provide a new opportunity to secure a newly developed residence within Jubail Island.
For investors, the project’s pricing, property sizes, plot positioning and payment structure will be key factors to evaluate once the complete launch information becomes available.
Rimas at a Glance
Rimas is a new residential community on Al Jubail Island comprising 316 villas and townhouses ranging from two to six bedrooms.
Its limited supply, strong focus on four- and five-bedroom residences and location within Jubail Island make it one of the newest Abu Dhabi villa developments to watch.
As further details regarding prices, floor plans, payment terms and the masterplan are officially released, a clearer picture of Rimas’ lifestyle and investment positioning will emerge.
For buyers considering Rimas or other opportunities across Jubail Island, understanding the location, property type, pricing and long-term value will be essential when evaluating the project.
