Nurai is a 3.3 million square foot (equivalent to approximately 306,000 square metres) island located northeast of Abu Dhabi city centre, near the northernmost tip of Saadiyat Island.

Nurai will include a boutique luxury hotel resort with 60 suites, 31 resort beachfront estates and 50 resort water villas.
