W Residences

Under construction

The residences

The name licensed to this project and carried on the building. A brand is not a company: it holds no title, builds nothing and runs nothing.
W Hotels
The business the brand comes from — hotel, fashion, design, automotive, restaurant, club, or a developer’s own name.
Hotel
How many separately titled homes this project sells, counting every kind it sells. Where it sells more than one kind, each is named and its own count given.
384
The kinds of home offered — villas, condos, penthouses, lots — and how they break down. Not how many, and not what interest is sold.
1, 2 & 3-bedrooms
Whether a hotel shares the site, the building is mixed-use, or it is residences only.
Residences only, no hotel
When ground was broken on the site.
May 2022
Every handover date the project has been given, oldest first.

Who is behind it

The company that runs properties under this project’s brand and sets the standards carried under it. It need not own the name — who owns it is the brand licensor.
Marriott International
The party that promotes the project and carries it through to delivery. May also hold title to part of it — being one does not make it the other.
DarGlobalThe project sits on DarGlobal's own projects index and has its own DarGlobal project page.
