Amwaj Development completes its first Dubai project, Starlight Park in Meydan, on schedule

Amwaj Development has announced the completion of its first project in Dubai, the Starlight Park residential community in Meydan. According to Gulf News on 8 October 2026, handover to buyers began in the first week of October, on schedule. For a company that positions itself as a small, boutique developer, this is its first actual delivery in the city.

What has been handed over

Starlight Park sits in the Meydan District 11 sub-community. According to Gulf News on 8 October 2026, the project comprises 172 apartments across four buildings in a B+G+5+Roof format, meaning a basement, a ground floor, five residential floors and a usable roof.

This is the first handover in Amwaj Development's Dubai portfolio. Founder and Chairman Emad Saleh, quoted by Gulf News, said the project holds a special place in the company's history because it was its first. Co-Founder and CEO Murad Saleh linked the on-time delivery to the discipline and coordination behind the process.

What the community includes

The community offers one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Per the developer, as reported by Gulf News, all four buildings have rooftop pools and lounges.

Shared amenities listed include an outdoor cinema, fitness, yoga and boxing studios, a padel court, children's play areas and an indoor kids' club. Apartment finishes, according to the publication, include built-in kitchen appliances, built-in TV units and bespoke bedroom accents.

What it means for buyers

For the off-plan market, the key signal here is not floor area but meeting the deadline. Handover delays remain one of the main complaints of off-plan buyers, so an on-time first delivery helps build a developer's reputation.

For a buyer considering an under-construction property from a smaller company, an on-time first handover offers a reference point on reliability. What to check, though, is not marketing promises but the actual track record of deliveries and the status of the project's escrow account with the Dubai Land Department.
