About the Project
Sama by Aldar Properties in Yas Island The latest apartments community from Aldar Properties in Yas Island — a range of unit sizes, scheduled for handover q3 2027 and currently available from AED 2,214,603.
Sama Yas is the first residential development on the popular Yas Island that offers a unique opportunity to live in the centre of nature. The three interconnected 9-storey buildings are adjacent to the evergreen Yas Park. The complex offers duplexes, apartments with 1-3 bedrooms, including garden apartments with 2-3 bedrooms. Some residences are complemented by a maid’s room with a separate bathroom and also have private access to a garden. Future residents can enjoy picturesque views of the blooming trees or a cosy boulevard from the panoramic windows and balconies. In April 2024, the developer announced the second phase, beginning construction of the second building.
About Sama in Yas Island
The development is conceived as an architecture-first composition with generous communal space. Residences range from studios to family-sized apartments, with layouts shaped for full-time living and lock-up-and-leave convenience. Interiors follow a contemporary palette — natural materials, muted tones and full-height glazing — and most homes open onto views across Yas Island.
Practicality is engineered in as carefully as the aesthetics: circulation is straightforward, storage is generous for the segment, and the floor plans waste little area on corridors. For buyers comparing options in Yas Island, that efficiency translates directly into usable value per square foot.
The numbers frame the offer clearly: 1 to 3-bedroom layouts, rising to 9 storeys.
