Buying a home is a big decision. Going through a licensed agency costs you nothing extra and gives you a team on your side.

We track Aldar’s appointment windows and launch steps, and tell you what is open to you and when.
We help you choose the home type, size and layout that fit your budget and your plan, whether that is living there, renting or reselling.

Yas Point is Aldar's new waterfront district on Yas Island, announced in July 2026 with an estimated gross development value of about AED 6 billion over roughly 600,000 sqm, with around 1,600 residences, a five-star resort and an international school planned, as reported by Gulf News and WAM. Delivery timings are set by Aldar.
Aldar's factsheet gives 388 homes in total, ranging from studios to 3-bedroom apartments. Note that this is The Canopies Sanctuary specifically; Aldar's earlier Canopies phase at Yas Island is a separate release.
Outdoors: a residents' podium garden, swimming pools with pool cabanas, a canopy lounge, BBQ and outdoor dining, an outdoor kids' play area and an outdoor exercise area. Indoors: a residents' co-working lounge, a fully equipped gym and an indoor kids' play area.
Studio (about 45 sqm), 1-bedroom (81 sqm), 2-bedroom (114 sqm), 2-bedroom plus maid (136 sqm) and 3-bedroom plus maid plus study (181 sqm), each in several layouts including accessible (ADA) versions. See the floor plans page for all 15 layouts.
We cannot promise returns, and nobody can: values and rents can rise or fall. The points to weigh are the entry prices from AED 1.66M, a payment plan with only 5% on booking and about half paid before Q1 2031 handover, an established master developer, and Yas Island's long-running leisure and community offering. Compare it with other options and take independent advice.
Yas Island is one of Abu Dhabi's areas open to foreign ownership. Eligibility, registration steps and fees are set by Abu Dhabi rules and Aldar's terms, so confirm the details for your situation before paying a deposit.
Homes priced above AED 2 million are generally the threshold for the 10-year property Golden Visa, which covers every type here except the studio. Eligibility is decided by the authorities and the rules can change, so confirm current conditions before relying on it.
On new off-plan launches the developer normally pays the agent's fee, so you pay the same price as buying direct and get an agent handling your registration, paperwork and follow-up. We confirm this in writing for your purchase.
Information is based on Aldar's launch materials for brokers (November 2026). Prices are "from" prices; availability, prices, plans, dates and payment terms can change and nothing here is an offer.
