Governed Long-Term Housing in West Amman
Residences for UN Personnel, Multinational Executives & Embassy Staff
For UN agency staff, senior executives of multinational corporations stationed in Amman, and embassy and consular staff from non-frontline missions, finding appropriate long-term housing can be challenging. Most luxury apartments in Amman are built for short-term rental, managed by remote landlords, or lack the privacy and governance that long-term institutional residents require. SHIHAB Elite Residences was designed to address exactly this gap.

A Note on Security
Our security model is privacy-by-design with 24/7 on-site presence: a day attendant who lives in a dedicated basement apartment, reachable both via the building intercom and via direct WhatsApp message, plus a separate night guard covering evening and overnight hours. Controlled card/fob/intercom entry, full CCTV across common areas, and a ZagTrader regional office within the building for additional accountable management. The building is single-owned and single-operated — no third-party property manager. We work best with residents whose security needs are met by a quiet, low-traffic, governed boutique building with named accountability; for postings that mandate compound-grade protocols, we will say so candidly at first inquiry.
