About the area

Gewan is the newest of the reclaimed islands, joined to The Pearl by a short causeway and built at a fraction of its density. The plan is mostly villas, townhouses and a handful of low-rise apartment buildings around a crystal lagoon and a members' beach club. Freehold, and priced at the top of the market.

Gewan Island covers about 400,000 square metres beside The Pearl and shares its developer, United Development Company. A 250-metre bridge carries the only road on, and the plan is deliberately low-density: villas, townhouses and a small number of low-rise apartment buildings around a crystal lagoon.

What's here

  • Crystal Lagoon

    The island's centrepiece, ringed by the villas.

  • Gewan Beach Club

    Members' beach and pool club.

  • The Pearl

    Joined by bridge, with all its retail a few minutes away.

Getting around

  • One bridge from The Pearl carries all traffic on and off the island.

  • Legtaifiya metro station is the nearest, via The Pearl causeway.

The property market

Freehold, low-density and priced at the top of the Qatari market. Stock is limited to what the developer has released, so availability moves in steps rather than continuously.
