About Starz by Danube
Starz by Danube is a residential complex in Al Furjan, Jebel Ali First, Dubai, developed by Danube Properties. The development is a multi-building complex made up of two individual towers, Starz 1 and Starz 2, each 18 storeys, holding 454 units combined. Construction began in March 2016 and the project was completed by February 2019.
The project was originally launched under the name 'Ritz' but was renamed in early 2016 following a trademark conflict with the Ritz-Carlton hotel brand; Starz has no affiliation with any hotel group. The two towers share a plaza where the leisure amenities are situated, and every apartment ships fully furnished with modular, convertible furniture, including sofas that fold out for extra guest sleeping space. Both towers are complete, sold out, and available for immediate occupancy.
Developer (Danube Properties), the two-tower structure, storey count (18 storeys per tower), unit count (454) and the March 2016 to February 2019 construction timeline are sourced from Propsearch.ae's building guide, confirmed by Danube Properties' own official site, which lists Starz as a distinct, completed project in its own portfolio and independently confirms the 454-unit total and completed, sold-out status. The original 'Ritz' working name and its trademark-driven rename are sourced from Propsearch.ae only.

Airbnb & Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Starz by Danube is a completed, standard freehold residential complex classified Residential under the Dubai Land Department’s own Property Use field, so the usual owner-direct DTCM holiday home permit route applies to any unit here. Danube Properties is not a restricted hotel brand, and the project’s original ‘Ritz’ working name never carried any hotel-group affiliation, so Royale Stays has no confirmed prohibition or restriction on short-term letting at this development.
Starz by Danube sits outside Royale Stays’ current core management areas of Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay, so no property-specific earnings figure is quoted here. Fully furnished units with modular, convertible furniture and shared amenities like the swimming pools, party hall and sports courts are the kind of features that can appeal to short-stay guests. Royale Stays’ Airbnb management services, furnishing, photography, dynamic pricing, guest communications, check-in and maintenance coordination, are available from a management fee starting at 15%. Owners can submit their property for a free assessment.
Royale Stays has no current partnership, affiliation, or commercial relationship with Danube Properties. This page is an independent building guide for owners and investors researching the project.
