Dubai South is reinforcing its position as one of Dubai's fastest-growing real estate areas, buoyed by development plans for Al Maktoum International Airport, with Phase 1 of the airport expansion proceeding on schedule.
Zoya Real Estate Development has announced the start of construction on the residential project 'Calessi', valued at 80 million dirhams, just 30 days after its launch — a move that reflects the investment momentum the area is experiencing, driven by infrastructure expansion, Al Maktoum International Airport, and growing demand for residential units. The project is set for delivery in the third quarter of 2027.
The company announced the commencement of construction works on the Calessi project in Dubai South, affirming the accelerating pace of real estate development in one of the emirate's most prominent future growth areas, where projects are moving from launch to execution in record timeframes.
The 80-million-dirham project reflects the continued appeal of Dubai South to developers and investors, amid sustained government investment in infrastructure, plans to expand Al Maktoum International Airport, and enhanced connectivity with Expo City Dubai and key economic hubs — all of which support demand for residential and investment units in the area.
The project is located approximately 10 minutes from Al Maktoum International Airport and 15 minutes from Expo City Dubai.
Shuaib Khan, CEO of Zoya Real Estate Development, affirmed that breaking ground just one month after the project's launch reflects the company's commitment to swift execution and turning plans into tangible achievements, noting that Dubai South is experiencing rapidly accelerating demand for high-quality residential projects.
Khan said: "The start of construction on the Calessi project represents our firm commitment to converting promises into concrete achievements on the ground. From the outset, we have been careful to adopt an approach rooted in swift execution — something we succeeded in delivering with the Miura project, and we look forward to repeating that success with Calessi."
He added that adherence to rapid execution in line with the highest quality standards and specified delivery dates is one of the most important factors reinforcing investor confidence, and affirms the company's ability to honour its commitments despite the variables the market continues to witness.
