Khalidiya Palace Rayhaan
Lovely place to live. Lived here with family for a few years and the pool and beach were a standard routine every weekend. The building is well-maintained, and the access to hotel's beach and pool is beyond convenient. One of the biggest highlights is its central location next to Etihad Towers, Emirates Palace, and The Corniche, so you have some of Abu Dhabi's hotspots within walking distance.

Al Ain Tower
Al Ain Tower has personally been a dream home to me. The concierge and staff are fabulous. Maintenance addresses issues quickly. Amazing rooftop pool, gym, hot tub and spa. Conveniently located 1 block from Corniche main beach. Downstairs provides a children's park, basketball court, coffee shops, grocery stores, dry cleaning and restaurants. I would highly recommend Al Ain Tower. Traffic can be congested around the "square" at normal busy peek times. 1 parking space is allotted. Visitors can park if security is notified ahead of time with visitor and car details. Unfortunately, the rent is on the HIGH side. The building is no longer under FAB and has a new property management company that some tenants have had issues with.

Awqaf Tower
The building is very clean. As the balcony doors are sealed properly, traffic sounds are not very high. Maintenance team is available within the building. Rooms are spacious. Balconies are a bit congested . There is no pool. Parking facility is good.
