There are plenty of buzzy new communities popping up in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, but this latest announcement is next-level—it’s the one that’s set to connect the two cities like never before.
Set in Ghantoot, Bayn is a massive 4.8 million square meter masterplan brought to life by ORA Developers. This visionary coastal hotspot is designed to blend city buzz with laid-back beach vibes—no trade-offs needed. The project was officially unveiled on April 24 at an exclusive launch event attended by top-tier business minds and key government figures.
Bayn is built around a smart ‘compact-city’ concept, where everything you need—schools, shops, fitness, wellness, and leisure spots—is just 15 minutes from your doorstep. The community will also boast 1.2 km of pristine beachfront along the crystal-clear waters of the Arabian Gulf, complete with serene lagoons and a chic marina—ideal for anyone chasing that peaceful, coastal lifestyle.
Bayn’s design draws from the land’s natural history, with studies suggesting the area was once carved by flowing waterways—a discovery that helped shape its water-inspired masterplan. The community will offer an impressive 7+ kilometers of waterfront living, featuring everything from sleek apartments to luxe mansions, villas, and townhouses. To dial up the coastal connection even more, Bayn will include a marina, a beach town, a vibrant business park, and scenic promenades that bring the water right to your doorstep.
Over 50% of Bayn’s land will be dedicated to open spaces, featuring everything from lush public parks and scenic walking trails to outdoor workout zones, padel courts, BBQ spots, and playgrounds. Plus, a massive sports club will offer a variety of athletic and recreational activities for all ages.
Bayn will also include dedicated running and cycling trails, perfect for active residents. Sustainability is at the core of the project, with smart, eco-friendly solutions woven throughout. From solar-powered energy systems to intelligent water and waste management, Bayn is all about reducing its carbon footprint while boosting the quality of life for everyone who calls it home.
Located just 35 minutes from Downtown Dubai and 45 minutes from the heart of Abu Dhabi, Bayn is also conveniently close to the Etihad GCC Railway and the upcoming airport expansion.
In its first phase, 464 residences—offering 3 to 5-bedroom options across two gated clusters—will be ready for handover in 2028. Phase 1 residents can look forward to a vibrant clubhouse, plus a curated mix of dining spots and retail experiences.
