The Canopies Sanctuary by Aldar at Yas Point, Abu Dhabi

Aldar Properties | Yas Point, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi

The Next Chapter of Homes at Yas Point, from AED 1.66M

The Canopies Sanctuary by Aldar is the second release of homes at The Canopies, the first residential community within Yas Point, Aldar’s AED 6 billion waterfront destination on the northern shore of Yas Island, Abu Dhabi. Set around 11,000 sqm of parkland, the collection brings 388 residences across three buildings, from studios to three-bedroom homes with maid’s rooms and study areas.

The first release of The Canopies opened for sale in July 2026 and generated AED 1.5 billion in sales at launch, according to Aldar. Sanctuary follows that demand with its own pricing, its own payment plan and a reported handover in Q1 2031, in a garden-led setting steps from the beach and minutes from Yas Island’s theme parks, marina and malls.

Studios start from a reported AED 1,660,000, with a 5% down payment and a 55/45 payment plan. Sales open in late November 2026, with launch materials pointing to 25 November 2026.

Project Highlights

Parkland Living in the Heart of Yas Point

Residences

Studios to Three-Bedroom Homes Around 11,000 sqm of Parkland

The Canopies Sanctuary offers 388 residences across three mid-rise buildings, arranged around landscaped parkland so that homes look onto greenery rather than roads. The collection runs from studios to three-bedroom homes with maid’s rooms and study areas, with warm wood facades, curved balconies and full-height glazing throughout.

Every home is planned with a private balcony and a view over the parkland, pools or landscaped gardens. Sizes and starting prices below are reported launch figures.

Amenities and Lifestyle

Resort Amenities Steps from Your Door

Life at The Canopies Sanctuary is planned around the parkland at its centre. Resort-style pools, shaded lounges and gardens sit beside work and play spaces, so residents can swim, exercise, work or gather with family without leaving the community.

Location and Connectivity

Yas Island’s Northern Shore, Minutes from Everything

The Canopies Sanctuary sits at Yas Point, on the northern shore of Yas Island, where land meets open water. Yas Island is Abu Dhabi’s leisure and entertainment destination, master-developed by Aldar, and Yas Point adds a 700-metre beachfront promenade, the island’s first public beach on its northern shore, and three signature parks to that setting.

Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, Yas Waterworld, Yas Marina Circuit and Etihad Arena are all a short drive away, and the planned Disneyland Abu Dhabi and Sphere Abu Dhabi will join them on the island in the coming years.

Master Plan

Three Buildings in a 600,000 sqm Waterfront Destination

Yas Point is a 600,000 sqm masterplan on the northern shore of Yas Island, with an estimated development value of AED 6 billion and around 1,600 residences planned for about 5,000 residents on completion. Alongside homes, the destination brings a five-star hotel, retail and dining, an international school, landscaped parks and a waterfront promenade.

The Canopies is the first residential community within Yas Point. Its first release, 592 apartments across six buildings, launched in July 2026. Sanctuary is the second release: 388 residences across three buildings, set around 11,000 sqm of parkland within the same garden-led masterplan.

Investment Perspective

Why Consider The Canopies Sanctuary on Yas Island?

Yas Island welcomed more than 38 million visits in 2024, and its pipeline keeps growing, with Disneyland Abu Dhabi and Sphere Abu Dhabi planned to join the island’s established attractions. That visitor economy supports both short-term and long-term rental demand around Yas Point, while Aldar’s name as the island’s master developer underpins the community’s infrastructure and long-term planning.

Sanctuary’s own case rests on its position as the second release in a community whose first release generated AED 1.5 billion in sales at launch, according to Aldar. Entry is reported from AED 1,660,000 with only 5% to book, and the 55/45 plan keeps 45% of the price due only at handover in Q1 2031.

As with any off-plan purchase, buyers should weigh the final unit price, service charges, rental prospects and their own objectives before deciding. Future rental demand and capital appreciation are not guaranteed.
