Abu Dhabi, 5th November 2015: Aldar Properties PJSC ('Aldar'), Abu Dhabi's leading listed property development, investment, and management company, announced today that the first phase of sales for Mayan will commence from November 15th 2015. Mayan is a luxury golf and waterfront development consisting of studios, 1, 2, 3, 4 bedroom apartments and beachfront villas set alongside the Yas Links Golf Club and the exclusive Yas beach on Yas Island, and will be available for purchase by all nationalities, with prices starting from approximately AED800,000 for studio apartments.

Mohammed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chief Executive Officer, Aldar Properties, said: "Mayan is Aldar's most exclusive development yet, significantly adding to Yas Island's residential offering. Its stunning location adjacent to the Yas Links Golf Course on the Arabian Gulf sea, along with its contemporary and luxurious design, make it the ultimate destination for buyers from across the region. With this development, Aldar continues to respond to the growing demand for high quality residential products, exclusive location and premium modern lifestyle living in Abu Dhabi, while it strengthens Yas Island's position as a leading residential and leisure destination."

Mayan is located within close proximity to Yas Island's world-class attractions including Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Yas Waterworld, Yas Marina Circuit, and Yas Mall. The development is situated just 30 minutes from Abu Dhabi Corniche, ten minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport, and 45 minutes from Dubai.

Mayan has been designed in such a way that over 90% of the units will have prime views across the sea and golf course. Complementing Mayan's unrivalled positioning on the Yas Island landscape, significant focus has been placed on the interiors of all units with an emphasis on contemporary design and high quality finishing.

In addition to a variety of amenities, from luxury infinity pools overlooking the sea, gyms, steam rooms, saunas, and access to Yas Island's members-only beach club, residents of Mayan will benefit from private parking, an exclusive concierge service, CCTV monitored security and 24-hour maintenance.

Mayan is the third residential development to be launched on Yas Island, and the second in an investment zone, adding to Aldar's broad offering of high-quality homes. Following on from the success of its 30/70 payment plans for Shams Meera and West Yas, Aldar is offering this on Mayan in addition to two further payment plans, with downpayments starting from 10%.

In April 2015, Aldar began construction on Ansam, a residential development in an investment zone, which comprises 500 apartments in four Andalusian-style apartment buildings, overlooking the Yas Links golf course and the Yas Island waterfront. In addition, Aldar has also seen strong demand from buyers for West Yas, a luxury residential development featuring 1,000 luxurious four-and-five bedroom villas, available exclusively to Emiratis.

The Mayan sales centre is located at Yas Links Golf Club and will be open from 15th November (09:00-17:00)
