Sanctuary Residences or The Waterway: Which Meydan Horizon Project?
Both Sanctuary Residences and The Waterway by Prestige One sit in Meydan Horizon, but they differ in typology, amenities and payment terms. Compare what is published for each before deciding which fits your plan.
Sanctuary Residences and The Waterway by Prestige One both sit in Meydan Horizon, but they are not interchangeable: Sanctuary offers one- to three-bedroom residences with a 20/45/35 payment plan and views toward Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, while The Waterway focuses on one- and two-bedroom residences beside the district's crystal lagoons, with its payment plan on request. Which one fits depends on typology, amenities and how each payment structure suits your cash flow.
Sanctuary Residences, as published
Sanctuary Residences is described as "a contemporary residential address at Meydan Horizon, with views towards Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary and Dubai's skyline," offering one- to three-bedroom residences on a payment plan of 20% at reservation, 45% during construction and 35% at handover. Confirmed amenities include an infinity swimming pool, a Sky Garden, an observation deck, spa and fitness facilities, a cinema lawn, and indoor and outdoor play areas. Business Bay sits around 10 minutes away, Downtown Dubai around 12 minutes, and Dubai International Airport around 18 minutes. Our Sanctuary Residences guide and payment plan guide cover both in full.
The Waterway, as published
The Waterway by Prestige One offers one- and two-bedroom residences beside Meydan Horizon's crystal lagoons, with Japanese-inspired interiors emphasising simplicity. Its amenities include a swimming pool, Prestige One Fitness, a rock climbing wall, a rooftop barbecue and lounge, a rooftop sunset area, and outdoor lounges with water features. Its payment plan is on request rather than published. Our Waterway launch guide sets out what Prestige One has confirmed so far.

How to choose between them
If a wider typology range, up to three bedrooms, and a confirmed 20/45/35 plan matter to you, Sanctuary gives you both facts today. If a lagoon-facing setting with a distinct wellness-and-adventure amenity mix, including a rock climbing wall, appeals more and you are comfortable confirming the payment plan directly with your adviser, The Waterway is worth a closer look. Our Meydan Horizon district guide and our comparison of Meydan projects place both within the wider neighbourhood.
