Ohana Development is a privately held real‑estate developer based in Abu Dhabi, with roots in Beirut and ongoing operations across the MENA region—and touching three continents—with over 35 years of experience . The name “Ohana”, meaning family, underpins its mission to build legacy‑style communities centered on deep human connection and enduring quality . Led by Husein Salem, a civil engineer born in 1989 and scion of a family real‑estate dynasty, the company transformed from consultancy to a modern developer championing innovation, technology, and attainable luxury.

Ohana stands out through its bespoke, customer‑focused approach—homes are highly customizable and crafted with personalized elegance rather than “one‑size‑fits‑all” . It also embraces sustainability: energy‑efficient tech, solar power, EV charging, and lush green landscaping feature in its developments.

Notable achievements include a high‑profile branded residences program through a partnership with Jacob & Co., merging fine‑watchmaking design into a beachfront community worth over USD 1.3 billion . Ohana has also entered a global partnership with English football club West Ham United, reflecting its ambition and values-driven brand identity.

Under Salem’s leadership, Ohana is growing in established markets like the UAE and extending appeal to Greece and the U.S., aiming to be among the region’s top five around-the‑world luxury developers . What sets it apart is its fusion of family‑centred values, design excellence, sustainability, and brand collaboration—delivered with a personal, service‑oriented ethos.
