Ohana Launches Manchester City Yas Residences in Abu Dhabi

23 Feb 2026 CW Team

The Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre announced the digitisation of expressions of interest and booking processes for off-plan purchases through the Madhmoun platform, establishing a regulated framework for the emirate. Registrations will operate under ADREC's direct supervision with mandatory escrow management to strengthen investor protection, transparency and governance. Ohana said the changes will streamline buyer access and align transactions with regulatory standards.

The masterplan spans 1.67 mn square metres and will provide over 2,000 residential units, including six villa clusters dedicated to four- and five-bedroom villas, twin villas, maisonettes, waterfront penthouses and apartments. Average prices for standalone villas are USD 1.9 mn. The development sits adjacent to Ferrari World Abu Dhabi and SeaWorld Abu Dhabi within one of the capital's most vibrant districts.

Completion is scheduled for 2029 and the project will incorporate an integrated Manchester City Academy with elite training and recovery facilities modelled on the club's player development approach. A waterfront promenade along Yas Canal will host curated retail, dining and lifestyle destinations, including a club café and designated match day facilities. A marina sports club and water sports provision will offer kayaking, paddleboarding and sailing alongside advanced fitness centres and infinity pools.

Resort-style amenities will be complemented by landscaped gardens and green spaces that account for over 55 per cent of the masterplan, while essential community infrastructure will include education and healthcare services. Ohana indicated that the project underlines its commitment to delivering future-ready communities from its home base in Abu Dhabi and its ambition to bolster the emirate's global prominence.
