Dubai, August 2026: ORA Developers, a global developer and curator of lifestyle destinations is set to launch BAYN, a 4.8 million sqm (480-hectare) coastal masterplan in Ghantoot corridor, between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. BAYN is ORA’s flagship UAE development, part of a total AED 30 billion investment commitment by the developer. betterhomes has been appointed to lead the current release, giving buyers direct, priority access to units.
The Ghantoot corridor occupies a singular position on the UAE map, connecting two of the country’s largest economies. Where most new waterfront communities compete for attention within a single emirate, BAYN occupies a unique position between the two, approximately 30 minutes from Downtown Dubai and 30 minutes from Abu Dhabi, making the location as compelling as the development itself.
BAYN’s residences span townhouses and villas, along with the release of Y Views, a boutique collection of three to eight-bedroom luxury villas and mansions currently available on plots up to 31,000 sqft, starting at AED 6.5 million. The community includes a 1.2km natural beachfront, a 5-star resort, a 204-berth marina, a business park, schools, healthcare facilities and a sports club, within 55% open space. Each Y Views villa is designed, so every bedroom faces the sea or a waterway, a collection with few direct comparisons on the Ghantoot corridor.
“Y Views represents the next chapter in BAYN’s evolution, bringing to market a collection that reflects the scale and quality of what we are building in Ghantoot. betterhomes’ deep market knowledge and established buyer network make them the right partner to bring this release to the right audience.” – Tamer Fikry, Chief Sales Officer, ORA Developers.
“We have not seen a villa release of this scale on the Ghantoot corridor before. Buyers looking at Abu Dhabi and Dubai have always had to choose one city or the other. BAYN, sitting exactly on that corridor, removes that choice altogether. Plots as large as 31,000 sqft, in this location, are not something the market has had access to until now.”
betterhomes, one of the UAE’s most established real estate brokerages, is working directly with ORA’s sales team to bring Y Views to market. Buyers interested in the Core Villa Collection can register interest and arrange private consultations through betterhomes.
