The Canopies at Yas Point — waterfront on the northern tip
Apartment
Investment thesis
Bets on the last undeveloped stretch of waterfront on Yas Island. Depends on whether the waterfront location supports the high price per square metre on resale.
Description
The first address on the new Yas Point waterfront, at the northern tip of the island. 592 units between 46 and 184 square metres, laid out around gardens, the beach within walking distance. Six buildings, 55/45 on a 5 % deposit, handover in the third quarter of 2030.
Why this property is on the list
- The northern tip is the last undeveloped stretch of waterfront on Yas Island. If you judge a location by what can no longer be built beside it, the argument is here — on an island the coastline is finite.
- Sizes from 46 to 184 square metres cover the full range: from a compact studio as a pure rental asset to a three-bedroom with maid’s room and storage for personal use.
- At 592 units, markedly smaller than Yas Park Place next door on a similar payment plan. On completion, fewer near-identical apartments compete for the same tenants.
What to keep in mind
From AED 1.65m with an entry size of 46 square metres, the price per square metre is high — what you are paying for is the waterfront. If floor area per dirham is your measure, the inner island or Al Ghadeer are the better arithmetic; if location is, this is exactly the point. And as with any scheme handing over in 2030, patience is part of the plan.
Who it suits – and who it does not
Suits
- Buyers willing to pay for a waterfront location
- Anyone looking for fewer similar flats nearby than at Yas Park Place
Less suited
- Anyone who wants to maximise space per dirham
- Anyone who wants to move in or let before the end of 2030
To clarify before reserving
- Service charges per square foot and what they cover
- The specific unit: floor, orientation, view, price
- When each instalment falls due and what applies in case of delay
- From what share paid a resale before handover is permitted
- Whether all payments go into the project’s escrow account
