About this project

Studios to four-bedroom apartments at The Wadi, Yas

The Wadi is a residential community by Cosmo in Abu Dhabi, launching in phases, and the first two buildings, E1 and E2, carry 530 apartments between them on a 9,165 square metre plot. Handover is stated as Q4 2030. The developer describes the wider community as around 3,950 units. E1 and E2 are the opening phase and the only part any figure on this page describes.

The project is marketed as Yas, which is what this new area across the water is now commonly called, and Yas is the label used throughout this brief. It is not on Yas Island. The factsheet's own location list puts Yas Island an 11-minute drive away, alongside 5 minutes to Zayed International Airport and 10 to Masdar City. Those drive times are the developer's own and are published here exactly as the factsheet gives them.

The apartments are delivered fully finished, not furnished, and with no appliances, to the developer's own specification.

The only prices on this page are the three retail units in building E2, from the retail schedule supplied to us on 15 September 2026.

Everything below comes from three sources, all reaching us on 15 September 2026: the developer's E1+E2 factsheet, the release circulated that day, and the retail schedule for building E2.

Handover specification

The apartments are handed over fully finished, not furnished, and without appliances, in the developer's own words.

The specification Cosmo publishes for each unit is:

  • Private balconies or terraces, as per the unit plan
  • Kitchen cabinets and countertops
  • Fully tiled bathrooms, en-suites and guest toilets
  • Double-glazed windows
  • A shower in each bathroom
  • Central air conditioning
  • Vanity units and mirrors
  • Laundry and maid's room, as per the unit plan
  • Private parking

Amenities

The factsheet publishes thirteen amenities across the community, including a marina for yachts. In full, as the factsheet lists them: private parking; a marina for yachts; a gym for each building; children's play areas; shaded seating areas; retail and restaurants; a green avenue and gardens; a jogging track; a cycling path; a waterfront promenade; a tennis club; a lounge; and a spa.

The factsheet describes the community as following the flow of water, with meandering pathways, a central green valley and native planting: Ghaf trees, date palms, mangroves and sculptural succulents. In the factsheet's words, the journey "culminates at the marina, where yachts, shimmering water and uninterrupted views toward the Gulf" give the community its waterfront character.

Nearby

The Wadi is in Abu Dhabi, in the area now commonly called Yas, and it is not on Yas Island. Yas is the label the market uses for this area, and it is the label used here.

These are the factsheet's location features, verbatim and in its own order:

Drive time Destination
05 min Zayed International Airport
07 min Etihad Arena, Yas Island
08 min Al Raha Beach Resort
09 min Ferrari World, Yas Island
09 min Al Raha Beach
10 min Masdar City
11 min Yas Island
12 min Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque
14 min Khalifa City
23 min Abu Dhabi Downtown

Read as a set, those times place the plot between the airport and the Yas and Al Raha corridor.

Residential payment plans

Cosmo has published one investor route and six instalment plans on the residential side, as circulated on 15 September 2026. The investor route is full payment within three months, and the discount rises with unit size.

Investor route — full payment within 3 months Discount
Studios 25%
1 bedroom 30%
2 bedroom and above 40%

The instalment plans, as circulated:

Down payment Discount Balance
5% None 1% monthly
10% 5% 1% monthly
20% 10% 1% monthly
30% 15% 1% monthly
30% 5% 70% on handover
20%, plus 10% after one year 2% 70% on handover

The two handover-weighted plans, 30/70 and 20 + 10 + 70, carry the smallest discounts of the six, at 5% and 2%.

Retail payment terms

The retail payment terms differ from the residential ones.

  • Investor route: 25% discount on full payment within 12 months.
  • The only applicable instalment plan: 30% down, 15% discount, 1% monthly.

Not applicable to retail, per the developer:

  • the 30% / 70%-on-handover plan;
  • the 20% + 10% after a year + 70%-on-handover plan;
  • any plan with a down payment below 30%.

A retail buyer has two routes: full payment within twelve months for 25% off, or 30% down for 15% off and 1% a month.

Retail units

Three retail units are priced on the schedule supplied to us on 15 September 2026, from AED 7,361,539 to AED 10,516,276. All three are in building E2, and the unit references and areas below are the schedule's own.

Unit Area (sq ft) Price (AED)
Retail E2-01 1,635.90 7,361,539
Retail E2-02 2,336.95 10,516,276
Retail E2-03 1,969.36 8,862,134
Total 5,942.21 26,739,949

The developer's release gives E1 two retail units and E2 three. The three priced units above are labelled E2 in the schedule itself.

The three units are listed in full, with the retail payment terms, at The Wadi retail units.
