Dubai is the thriving, most
developed and well-known city in the Middle East
today. All the major corporations of the world now have their branch or main
offices located in Dubai
or in the UAE. In Dubai,
the majority of the population comprises of foreigners who have come from all
parts of the world to work or live there. Therefore, the residential
accommodation required would have to suit their tastes, budget and living style.
Apartments close to Jumeirah Beach
and in Dubai Marina, which happens to be a city within a city, are the best and
most sought-after apartments. As Dubai
is a new modern city, all the apartment buildings have been designed by some of
the best architects in the world, and the construction standards are par
excellence. All great apartments in Dubai
have all the modern facilities that are needed to make comfortable homes. Some
are located in high rise condominiums and have private car parks, swimming
pools, gyms, and facility stores, and are located close to the leading hotels
in Dubai.
But what makes a great apartment in Dubai? There are single bedroom to five
bedroom apartments available in Dubai,
so depending on the family size a suitable and comfortable apartment can always
be found. The larger apartments can easily and comfortably accommodate six
people to a maximum of seven. As everybody knows that Dubai
weather-wise is a pretty hot place, so the first thing required in an apartment
in Dubai would
be air conditioning. The second would be ample space, not little cubby-holes. The
apartment must be airy and have large windows with a view of the sea. The
apartment must be tastefully furnished and comfortable. Also the kitchen
facilities such as the fridge, cooker, microwave, etc should be big enough as
per the living requirements of the apartment. Facilities like the telephone,
digital TV and high speed internet would be required. A swimming pool, indoor racquet
ball court, and gym would be other facilities that would make for a great
apartment. Also a private parking lot would be required. If there are small
children, or if a live-in maid is required, then a proper place for the maid or
servant to stay in would be required. The apartment should be in close
proximity to shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, clubs and other places where
people like to go.
The apartment must not be located in an area which is not noisy,
as Dubai is a
cosmopolitan city where life never stops. So disturbance and the humdrum of the
city is the last thing that would be needed in an apartment.
So a roomy, airy, well furnished accommodation with all
modern day facilities is what would make a great apartment in Dubai. Dubai
has the highest construction rate and the city is still expanding, so finding a
great apartment (whether studio or family sized and within what is budgeted for)
can be found easily. Some of the world's richest people have bought luxurious apartments in Dubai.
Plus, most expatriates live in apartments in Dubai.
If non-smoking is required then there are non smoking apartments that can be
had.
