Meraki Developers enters Dubai South with Celeste, as its Dubai pipeline reaches seven projects worth nearly US$1 billion

Meraki Developers has announced its expansion into Dubai South, with plans to launch a new mixed-use development in the district. The move is the latest step for Meraki Group, the UAE and Singapore-based conglomerate with a growing real estate portfolio in Dubai.

The expansion comes as Meraki continues to scale its real estate operations across the city. The developer now has seven projects worth nearly US$1 billion in its development pipeline, with approximately 2,400 residential units currently under construction.

A new chapter in Dubai South

Ajay Rajendran, Founder and Chairman of Meraki Group, said: “Dubai South represents an important next step in Meraki’s growth. We see strong potential in the area, supported by continued infrastructure development, connectivity and a growing residential community. Our approach has always been to create developments that are thoughtful in their design, relevant to the people who live in them, and built for long-term value. As we expand into Dubai South, our ambition is to set a new benchmark, positioning Celeste among the area’s top three residential projects while contributing to its long-term growth.”

Meraki brings more than 25 years of experience across development, construction and education. The Group has delivered over 100 projects across the UAE, spanning residential and commercial developments, hospitals, academic institutions and recreational facilities.

The Haven I: a 73% snag-free handover

The company points to The Haven I in Majan, Dubailand, as a reflection of its commitment to quality. The project achieved a 73% snag-free handover rate.

The Haven I has also delivered strong rental performance. One-bedroom apartments command approximately AED 75,000 a year, compared with the area’s average of AED 63,000, a premium of nearly 19%. Together, these milestones reflect Meraki’s focus on delivering quality developments that create long-term value for residents and investors.

Unveiling in November

The new Dubai South development will be officially unveiled in November 2026, with further details to be announced in the coming weeks.
