Manchester City Yas Residences
Yas Island · by Ohana
The first Manchester City branded residences, on Yas Island, for football fans and City Football Group's global following.
Manchester City Yas Residences: key facts
The design story
This is one of the more unusual branded projects in the UAE: residences carrying the Manchester City name, on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, the emirate whose ownership sits behind City Football Group. Ohana is the developer, and the pitch is aimed squarely at the club's enormous global fanbase.
Homes run from one to five bedrooms, with football-club themed design and amenities, on Abu Dhabi's entertainment island near the F1 circuit and Yas Marina. It is a lifestyle-and-fandom play more than a traditional luxury one.
For a City supporter, or an investor betting on the pull of one of the world's biggest football brands, this is a genuinely one-of-a-kind address. It is niche by design, which is both its appeal and its main risk.

The developer: Ohana
Ohana is a newer developer active in Abu Dhabi, with the Manchester City branded residences on Yas Island among its headline projects.
As a young name, its delivery record is still forming, which is worth weighing on a long-dated, niche-branded project. The Manchester City partnership, and the Abu Dhabi backing behind the club, is its clearest distinguishing feature.
