Why book direct

The same apartment, a better deal.

Booking platforms add their commission on top of the nightly rate. Come direct and that margin works for you instead.

01

The best rate, always

No platform commission added to your price. You get a better rate, and we keep more of what you pay — so we can keep the apartment exceptional.

02

A direct line to your host

Message Hamza before, during, and after your stay. No call centres, no middlemen — just a quick reply from the person who runs the place.

03

Flexible and personal

Early check-in, longer stays, a mid-stay clean, local tips — all easier to arrange when you book with us directly.

Hamza, your host
Meet your host

Looked after, personally.

I'm Hamza, and HZ Residence is mine to run — every stay, start to finish. Whether you're here to relax, explore Yas Island, or just get away for a while, I've tried to think of everything you'll need to feel at home from the moment you walk in.

If there's ever anything more I can do, you reach me directly — not a call centre. That's the difference booking direct makes.
