About Sunstone by IMKAN

Sunstone by IMKAN is a new waterfront residential development located in Makers District on Al Reem Island — one of Abu Dhabi’s most active creative areas. Here buyers can choose from a variety of 1–4 bedroom apartments across multiple layout types, including duplex options for 3BR and 4BR units.

Economic Appeal

Al Reem Island remains one of Abu Dhabi’s strongest-performing residential markets, consistently holding the city’s second-largest market share after Saadiyat. Demand for mid- to upper-tier apartments continues to outpace supply, driven by population growth, proximity to business districts, and strong lifestyle positioning.

Vacancy levels in prime communities are exceptionally low. According to The Luxury Playbook – Abu Dhabi Market Forecast 2025–2026, vacancy rates in Abu Dhabi average around 5.2%, yet fall below 4% on Al Reem Island, reflecting robust absorption, long-term tenancy stability, and reduced risk for investors.

Transaction data also reinforces the district’s momentum: 434 secondary market sales worth AED 775M were recorded in Q2 2025, alongside 38% year-on-year price appreciation in the off-plan segment — one of the highest growth rates in Abu Dhabi.

Rental yields on Yas Island remain one of the strongest in Abu Dhabi, averaging 6–7% annually. Branded waterfront and beachfront projects with wellness positioning, such as Sunstone by IMKAN, typically achieve higher premiums due to sustained tenant demand and limited supply.
