Morning. You sip coffee by the window and watch the mist lift off the green of the golf course. The Arabian Gulf glints somewhere on the right; the white ribbon of the racetrack runs to the left. By ten you're down in the lobby — the doorman has already taken the package, the concierge reminds you the technician is coming at noon. In the evening, neighbors call you up to watch the race. The track is minutes from your door, and you can hear the engines from the terrace.
That's an ordinary day at Waldorf Astoria Residences Yas — the first Waldorf Astoria–branded residences in Abu Dhabi. 123 apartments on Yas Island, with windows over the golf course, the racetrack, or the Arabian Gulf. Developer: Aldar Properties, in partnership with Hilton. Handover: Q4 2028.
Prices start at AED 3.8M — about USD 1M for a one-bedroom. A 60/40 payment plan: 5% on booking, 55% during construction, 40% on handover. Every apartment is delivered fully furnished and turnkey — arrive with a suitcase, brew a cup of tea, go to bed.
Inside the building: a rooftop pool over the fairways, a spa with steam room and hammam, a gym, a 15-seat cinema, a kids' club with full-time staff, and a simulator room for golf and motorsport. Each apartment comes with a one-year membership at Yas Links Golf Club — the same course you see from the bedroom window.
And just outside: Ferrari World, Warner Bros World, and SeaWorld Abu Dhabi; Yas Beach and Yas Mall. Abu Dhabi International Airport is ten minutes by car, and the Corniche in the city center is twenty-five.
