Yas Island

Abu Dhabi's leisure island — home to the F1 circuit, Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World and SeaWorld — doubles as one of the capital's most liquid residential markets. Aldar's communities from Yas Acres to Noya and the Yas Golf Collection apartments attract both expat end-users and yield-driven investors. Rental demand is propped up by tourism employment and the island's schools-and-marina lifestyle. Yields comfortably outrun comparable Dubai leisure districts.

E12 highway with direct links to Abu Dhabi island and Saadiyat; AUH airport about 15 minutes, Dubai roughly 50 minutes.
