Feted as the racing capital of the Middle East, the new rack opening in November to the fanfare of the Grand Prix 2009 finale, plus the Ferrari Theme Park, will ensure a steady flow of visitors to Yas Island. Property-wise, the emphasis is on low-rise residential apartments and villas to rent, lease or own. A blend of waterfront (two-tiered apartments located next to the lagoon) and stand-alone properties make up the majority of the housing. The nearby retail centre also promises plenty of shops, a kids’ zone, health and fitness centres, spas and exhibition area.
