Sales are scheduled to commence on 1st March 2026, with units ranging from studios to five-bedroom villas.<\/p>\n<p>The development is located on Yas Island, approximately 10\u201315 minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport, 15\u201320 minutes from Saadiyat Island, and around 50\u201360 minutes from Dubai. The island hosts several leisure attractions including Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, SeaWorld, and Yas Marina Circuit.<\/p>\n<h2>Unit mix and pricing<\/h2>\n<p>The project comprises apartments, maisonettes, townhouses, and villas. Pricing starts at approximately AED 2 million for studios to three-bedroom apartments, AED 11 million for maisonettes, AED 4.75 million for townhouses, AED 7 million for twin villas and four-bedroom villas, and AED 9.5 million for five-bedroom villas.<\/p>\n<p>According to market data cited by the developer, average prices for new-build off-plan villas in established Abu Dhabi communities currently range between AED 2,200 and AED 3,500 per square foot, with waterfront or branded properties commanding a premium.<\/p>\n<h2>Payment structures<\/h2>\n<p>Two payment plans are available: a 50\/50 structure requiring 5% booking deposit with 50% due on delivery, and a 35\/65 plan with 5% booking, 30% upon signing the sale and purchase agreement, and 65% on completion.<\/p>\n<p><!--   \t\t  \t\t\t \t\t\t\tgoogletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(\"div-gpt-ad-1715620536068-0\"); }); \t\t\t  \t\t  \t -->  \t <\/p>\n<h2>Amenities and facilities<\/h2>\n<p>The development includes a Manchester City Training Academy, two football fields, performance studios, hydrotherapy facilities, cryotherapy and oxygen therapy suites, spa and recovery facilities, a crystal lagoon, infinity pools, canal promenade retail and dining areas, waterfront hotel components, marina access, a watersports club, medical centre, mosque, school, and community hub.<\/p>\n<h2>Abu Dhabi villa market context<\/h2>\n<p>The off-plan villa market in Abu Dhabi has recorded strong performance over the past 24 months, particularly in communities such as Saadiyat, Yas Island, and Al Jubail. Recent launches have seen high absorption rates, with multiple phases selling quickly, particularly in the four- and five-bedroom segments.<\/p>\n<p>Abu Dhabi\u2019s property market has been supported by population growth, infrastructure investment, and international demand. The emirate offers no annual property tax and long-term residency visa eligibility linked to property ownership.<\/p>\n<p>The development adds to the expanding residential supply on Yas Island, which continues to benefit from infrastructure upgrades and tourism growth. Waterfront inventory in the area remains limited, with developers targeting both end-users and investors in the family villa segment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ohana Development has announced the launch of Manchester City Yas Residences, a waterfront development on Yas Canal in Abu Dhabi.
