01 / The project
A closer look.
Yas Riva Reserve is Aldar's gated collection of 292 four- to six-bedroom villas beside the water northeast of Yas Island. Inland and waterfront homes form separate groups, with gardens and a community clubhouse connecting the neighbourhood. It is a distinct release from the original Yas Riva development.
The landscape links the villas with walking routes, recreation space and the residents' club. Indoor exercise, study areas and children's facilities complement outdoor pools and courts. These are planned community amenities; access conditions and delivery dates should be checked against the chosen home.
