Manchester City Yas Residences — Branded Homes at Yas Island

‍

About the Manchester City Yas Residences Abu Dhabi

Manchester City Yas Residences by Ohana at Yas Island is the first residential community where the high-performance spirit of a global football icon meets a Mediterranean-inspired waterfront retreat. Located along the Yas Canal, the development is a wellbeing-focused ecosystem designed for personal growth, discipline, and authentic social connection.

The masterplan features low-density living with over 55% of the total area dedicated to landscaped green spaces, lifestyle amenities, and daily rituals. The residential collection includes 4-5BR villas and twin villas, townhouses and maisonettes, 1-3BR apartments, and penthouses, all built with a Mediterranean aesthetic that emphasizes balance and architectural quality.

The collection is topped by grand 14,747 SQFT Maisonettes, designed for residents seeking maximum privacy and space. Every home benefits from a holistic wellbeing infrastructure rooted in sports culture, while the location provides direct canal access and is minutes away from the main entertainment and sporting landmarks of Yas Island.

Key Benefits of Manchester City Yas Residences

Manchester City Yas Residences by Ohana offers a strategic entry into the Yas Island market with Abu Dhabi’s first branded residential community on the Yas Canal. The project targets global professionals and high-net-worth families through a longevity-oriented masterplan that integrates movement, performance, and nutrition into daily infrastructure. With a focus on capital preservation and high cultural relevance, the development provides a unique asset class that combines the global equity of Manchester City with Ohana’s boutique construction standards.

The investment is supported by flexible 50/50 and 35/65 payment plans, requiring only a 5% booking fee to secure a unit. Positioned in the capital’s most liquid luxury hub, the residences benefit from a location with a high demand for branded waterfront property and strong capital appreciation potential. This community is designed as an ecosystem for long-term value, offering residents direct access to the canal while maintaining proximity to the island’s primary leisure and sporting landmarks.

Area Infrastructure

Manchester City Yas Residences is located on the Yas Canal of Yas Island, just 10 minutes from Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Yas Mall, and Yas Waterworld.

The community offers direct access to the waterfront promenade and is situated within 15 minutes of Etihad Arena, Yas Marina Circuit, and Zayed International Airport.

Manchester City Yas Residences is located along the Yas Canal on Yas Island, a mixed-use waterfront district combining residential neighborhoods with public promenades, marinas, beaches and entertainment venues. The community sits within walking and short driving distance of retail areas, restaurants and leisure facilities across Yas Bay and the marina.

Families benefit from access to nearby schools and nurseries on and around Yas Island. Educational options in the surrounding districts include SABIS International School – Yas Island, Yas American Academy and early learning centres in Yas Acres and Al Raha Beach. Everyday services such as supermarkets, clinics, gyms and childcare facilities are available within the island’s residential areas.

The location also provides convenient daily mobility. Zayed International Airport is about 15 minutes away, while business districts such as ADGM and central Abu Dhabi can be reached within a typical commuting drive. The surrounding road network connects the island directly to the main Abu Dhabi highway corridors, allowing straightforward travel across the city.

Economic attractiveness

Manchester City Yas Residences is located along the Yas Canal within Yas Island, Abu Dhabi’s main leisure and tourism district. The island recorded more than 38 million visits in 2024 with hotel occupancy around 82–90%, reflecting consistent year-round activity.

Large-scale events such as the Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at Yas Marina Circuit, concerts and exhibitions at Etihad Arena, and year-round activity at the theme parks bring regular visitors and business travel to the area, while nearby hotels, entertainment venues, aviation services and hospitality operations create a local employment base. Many people working on or around Yas Island therefore prefer housing within close proximity.

This combination of tourism activity and employment supports steady occupancy for surrounding housing. Canal-front residential supply remains limited compared with demand, particularly for low-density communities. Flexible 50/50 and 35/65 payment plans allow buyers to secure property early in a location where ongoing infrastructure expansion and leisure development support long-term residential use.
