Who is Almal, and who backs it?

Almal Real Estate Development, styled Almal, is a Dubai developer whose own site states it was founded in the UAE in 2022, headquartered in Business Bay with a second office in Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia. Its published project list names four developments spanning Dubai, Ras Al Khaimah, Bali and Cyprus. Almal's own pages name no separate parent company, no legal-entity suffix, and no Dubai Land Department registration number.

What has Almal delivered?

Almal's own site describes Harrisoni La Mer, two five-bedroom villas on La Mer Island valued at over $30M each, as its only fully delivered project. Its largest active project, The Unexpected, is a 422-unit branded hotel and residences on Al Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, managed by Palladium Hotel Group, on 36,000 sqm of land with a stated handover around 2027. The One by Almal and The Smart Space are listed as in-progress or ongoing-rollout developments, with no unit count or completion date given for either.

What should you check before buying from Almal?

The same due-diligence steps apply to any Dubai developer, Almal included. Confirm the project's registration and escrow status before you sign anything or send a deposit.

  • Verify the project's Oqood off-plan registration and its escrow account directly with the Dubai Land Department, not from a sales brochure.
  • Read the Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) for the payment plan, the handover date and any penalty clauses before you pay a reservation fee.
  • Ask Almal for the project's DLD registration number and check it yourself.

This is the same due-diligence process we recommend for every developer on this site, not an Almal-specific step.

What are the limitations of this profile?

This page states only what Almal's own published pages say as of 15 September 2026. No legal entity name, Dubai Land Department registration number, or independent, non-Almal source was found for these facts this research round; the DLD registry portal itself was not queried. Almal's own site also states handover and completion status inconsistently across sections for some projects, so this profile quotes conservatively rather than resolve that discrepancy. No price-per-square-foot or return figure appears anywhere on this page: this research round found no dated, sourced pair that meets ProEstate's own basis-and-citation standard for Almal or its projects, so none is shown, estimated or implied.
