The Wadi is a new Dh6 billion residential community set to be built along Yas Canal in Abu Dhabi. The project, developed by Cosmo Developments, will consist of 3,950 homes ranging from studios to three-bedroom apartments. The community will also include commercial, recreational, and sports facilities, as well as a hotel.
Situated along Yas Canal, The Wadi will offer residents easy access to major attractions such as Ferrari World, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, and Yas Waterworld. The development takes inspiration from wadis and the movement of water through the UAE's valleys, with a nature-led design and landscaped outdoor areas.
The first phase of The Wadi, comprising 530 apartments, is expected to be completed by the end of 2030. The community will be about five minutes by car from Zayed International Airport and nine minutes from Ferrari World Yas Island. It will also provide easy access to Yas Island's future attractions, including Disney's theme park and Sphere Abu Dhabi.
