Latest East & West Properties Projects

East & West Properties (EWP) is a UAE luxury real estate developer founded in 1993, with its Dubai head office on the 21st floor of Westburry Offices Tower, Marasi Drive, Business Bay, opposite The St. Regis Downtown hotel. The company describes itself on its official website as a developer of luxury real estate across the UAE with reach extending internationally, including a resort project in the Maldives. It operates as the development brand of East & West International Group, whose portfolio in Abu Dhabi includes the Dusit Thani Complex.

EWP is registered with the Dubai Land Department as developer number 1724 (registered September 2023) and holds Dubai Economic Department licence 1215549. Alongside development, the company runs a Community Management Team for its buildings and offers sales, mortgage consultancy, legal support, home inspection and valuation services.

The company was founded in 1993, which its official website states directly. The group began with luxury villa construction and grew over three decades into premium residential towers, branded residences and resort projects. Its recent Dubai chapter is the most active: DLD developer registration in September 2023, the launch of 25hours Heimat, and the June 2024 groundbreaking of Rixos Financial Center Road Dubai Residences, both announced in the news section of its official website.

The firm builds and sells premium residential projects, with a focus on branded residences: towers that carry an international hospitality name and its service standards. Its current Dubai lineup pairs the company with the St. Regis, Rixos and 25hours brands. It also holds resort assets, including a Maldives resort and Al Nawras Island Resort on Al Maya Island in Abu Dhabi, and lists partner projects such as Jumeirah Living Marina Gate, delivered with Select Group, plus Six Senses Residences The Palm and Peninsula in Business Bay.

  • Branded residences: St. Regis Residences on Financial Center Road, Rixos Financial Center Road Residences, and 25hours Heimat on Downtown Boulevard, with units from studios to duplex penthouses.
  • Waterfront and island apartments: Six Senses Residences on the West Crescent of Palm Jumeirah, an ultra-luxury project covering 700,000 sq ft, and Peninsula One in Business Bay, part of a 3.4 million sq ft waterfront district.
  • Urban apartment towers: The Edge in Business Bay and Jumeirah Living Marina Gate in Dubai Marina.
  • Resorts: a private island resort in the Maldives and Al Nawras Island Resort in Abu Dhabi.

  • Branded residences are the core product, not a side line. Three of its flagship Dubai towers carry St. Regis, Rixos and 25hours names. Hotel-branded homes typically come with managed services and have their own resale market in Dubai.
  • Three decades in the UAE market. A 1993 founding date puts the group among the older private developers in the country, having operated through several full market cycles.
  • Prime plots only. Its Dubai projects sit on Financial Centre Road, Downtown Boulevard, Business Bay, Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah. There are no fringe locations in the portfolio.
  • Developer and hospitality investor in one. The resort assets in the Maldives and Abu Dhabi show a company that holds income property, not one that only builds and exits.

Anyone. Its Dubai projects sit in designated freehold areas, so UAE nationals, resident expatriates and overseas investors can all own units outright. Property Finder's developer page confirms that EWP projects are fully open to foreign investors and that the company assists with the purchase and DLD registration process. Buyers of qualifying value can also use their purchase toward UAE Golden Visa eligibility under the standard national rules.

Per the developer's Property Finder page, payment plans are structured around construction milestones and most commonly run 70/30 or 80/20, with the larger share paid during construction and the balance at handover. Selected projects add post-handover payment plans. As a reference point, 25hours Heimat in Downtown Dubai starts from AED 1.6 million. Exact schedules vary by project and unit, and are confirmed at booking through EWP sales on 600 511122.

EWP is a private company and publishes no revenue figures, so its growth is best measured through verifiable events:

Period Verified Milestone
Up to 2022 Portfolio positions built across Dubai Marina (Marina Gate with Select Group), Business Bay (Peninsula) and Palm Jumeirah (Six Senses Residences).
September 2023 Registered with the Dubai Land Department as developer number 1724, formalising its role as a named developer in Dubai.
June 2024 Construction launched on 25hours Heimat in Downtown Dubai and ground broken on Rixos Financial Center Road Dubai Residences, per the company's own announcements.
2024 to 2025 St. Regis Residences Financial Center Road launched as one of Dubai's newest branded residential towers; three projects registered with the DLD.
2026 Active sales across three off-plan Dubai projects on Property Finder, alongside resort assets in Abu Dhabi and the Maldives.

The pattern is clear: in five years the group went from partner and investor roles to a registered Dubai developer with three branded towers under its own name in the city's most expensive districts.
