Sama Yas by Aldar Properties

About the project

Sama Yas is the first residential development on the popular Yas Island that offers a unique opportunity to live in the centre of nature. The three interconnected 9-storey buildings are adjacent to the evergreen Yas Park. The complex offers duplexes, apartments with 1-3 bedrooms, including garden apartments with 2-3 bedrooms. Some residences are complemented by a maid's room with a separate bathroom and also have private access to a garden. Future residents can enjoy picturesque views of the blooming trees or a cosy boulevard from the panoramic windows and balconies. In April 2024, the developer announced the second phase, beginning construction of the second building.

The developer has collaborated with renowned specialists from Woods Bagot and Mustard & Linen to create the architectural concept and interior design of Sama Yas, while exquisite finishes for the kitchens are inspired by the celebrity chef Izu Ani. The status of the project is emphasised by the premium materials used throughout the finishings, including marble, natural wood and stone.

The project features eco-friendly resources and sustainable technologies, such as smart waste disposal solutions, water-saving plumbing fixtures, and energy-efficient heating and cooling systems. Residents can make the most of the Smart Home system, security and access management, as well as the easy online amenities booking system. The project is designed to meet Estidama 3 Pearl, Fitwel, and LEED Gold Certification.
