If you want to get away from the gleaming corporate towers at the heart of Dubai and to experience a breath of fresh air, then you can explore one of its tranquil suburban residential communities. Areas like Dubai Hills Estate, Jumeirah Golf Estates and Emirates Living offer a beautiful selection of properties along with a relaxed pace of life.

Properties located in Dubai’s most prime residential communities are set along quiet leafy streets and are part of heavily pedestrianised neighbourhoods. These are primarily villa communities, though some of them also have low-rise apartment towers.

Each community also has its own unique lifestyle offerings that are geared towards more quality time spent outdoors with the family.

Dubai Hills Estate, as an example, contains one of the largest parks in the city and also has a championship golf course; Jumeirah Golf Estates ups the ante by offering two golf courses. Al Barari, considered to be the greenest community of Dubai, features themed gardens and a purpose-built outdoor playground for children. Both District One and Tilal Al Ghaf are centred on man-made lagoons that are lined with walkable promenades and have plenty of water-based activities.

No matter which community you choose to live in, you will find lots of open spaces that provide a pleasing contrast to the vertical environments in Dubai’s city centre. With plenty of greenery, lovely water features, and lots of outdoor activities available, these communities help in promoting both physical and mental health.

The Cosmopolitan Lifestyle in Dubai

In Dubai, some of the most prestigious residential communities are built around world-class golf courses. With undulating green hills, an abundance of birds, and expansive low-density living spaces, these communities offer a life of refined tranquillity, contrasting with more dizzying cosmopolitan areas like Downtown Dubai and the surrounding  desert landscape.

One of the most charming golf communities in Dubai is Jumeirah Golf Estates, which is built around two championship golf courses, Earth and Fire. You don’t have to be a keen golfer to enjoy life here (though it’s certainly a heaven if you are) – with its winding pedestrianised streets, stunning Mediterranean-style villas, and expansive lakes, residents enjoy a life of quiet leisure, perfect for family living. This golf community is one of the largest bird sanctuaries in Dubai, with 340 species of native and migratory birds and 4,000 trees, encouraging a close connection to the natural world. 

A community that has long reigned as Dubai’s most desirable neighbourhood for golfers and otherwise is the coveted Emirates Hills. This gated villa community is built around the 18-hole Montgomerie golf course, designed by Master Architect Desmond Muirhead in collaboration with the eight-time European Order of Merit winner, Colin Montgomerie OBE. Residents enjoy rolling green fairways set against the backdrop of the glittering city skyline. 

Emirates Hills is famously home to some of the most premier custom-built villas in Dubai, from 19-bedroom palatial mansions to 4-bedroom homes with private infinity pools. This historic area was one of the first to offer freehold opportunities to foreign investors, creating a highly lucrative investment landscape.

In a busy, cosmopolitan city like Dubai, finding a home that offers privacy can be a challenge. With towering apartment blocks, dense roads, and an increasing population, residents can sometimes feel disconnected and overwhelmed, boosting demand for luxury homes in secluded areas.

If privacy matters to you, the leafy neighbourhood of Al Barari is a fantastic choice. A trailblazing locale designed by Emirati entrepreneur Zaal Mohammed Zaal, Al Barari is the gold-standard for green living in Dubai, with 500 different plant species. Privacy is paramount in Al Barari – homes here are tucked away in the thick of towering trees and often separated with cascading waterways and verdant stretches of botanical gardens, offering a level of natural seclusion found nowhere else in Dubai. 

Another address that promises privacy without being too remote is Emirates Hills, which is one of the most coveted gated neighbourhoods in Dubai. Freehold villas here are expansive and custom-built, set around the undulating Montgomerie golf course. Residents can enjoy the privacy and security of life in a low-density gated golf community while being just minutes from key areas such as Dubai Marina. Homes in Emirates hills are also notably larger than average – up to 19 bedrooms – offering residents sufficient privacy both within the home and the surrounding landscape.

More private still is Jumeirah Bay Island. This sea-horse shaped island is connected to the mainland by a 300m bridge and has just 128 villa plots, creating an exclusive, close-knit residential community where privacy is a given. Private pools and beach fronts bring further privacy to residents on this island, offering a personal slice of sun-kissed paradise.

Owning a luxury home is a wise investment goal for many but the real luxury often lies in the community’s premium offerings. In recent years, a number of excellent residential communities in Dubai have emerged, offering community-focused layouts and world-class amenities that foster a genuine sense of connection and belonging. These areas are especially attractive to families longing for a more natural way of life, where meaningful relationships are nurtured and children can play and explore comfortably outdoors. 

One Dubai community offering such a way of life is Al Barari, a leafy enclave often referred to as the ‘green heart of Dubai’. Aside from the kilometres of fertile green space replete with blooms, trees, and waterways, Al Barari is carefully designed to foster strong community relations. Whether you’re picking up freshly baked bread at the local bakery, The Mill, attending a community social event at HideOut, or sweating it out in a group fitness class at the local Body Language Health Club, there are plenty of opportunities to rub shoulders and gel with other members of the community. Properties in Al Barari also cater to a diverse range of needs and preferences, from low-density luxury apartments to cavernous custom-built mansions with sprawling gardens.

For more tight-knit, upscale community living, there is Dubai Hills Estate.

Dubai is one of the busiest real estate markets in the world and is one of the top choices for international property investors. The reasons for this are manifold, but they come down to the excellent infrastructure of the city, its tax-free regime, and the generous returns that can be generated. Dubai also offers excellent value on investment, with properties that twice or even three times the square footage that an investor would get for the same price in other global markets like New York or London.

In the span of under fifteen years, Dubai’s landscape has changed considerably from what it was. Having weathered the financial downturn of 2008 and 2009, the city revitalised its plans for expansion, developing new communities that would enhance its position as a hub for long-term residence. This has resulted in numerous investment opportunities for global buyers who are able to generate consistent and lucrative returns.

The best investment properties in Dubai are located in its busiest residential sectors, primarily in the Downtown district, Dubai Marina, and Palm Jumeirah. These areas are very popular amongst young couples and families who want to enjoy a luxury lifestyle, which creates excellent opportunities for property owners to realise the full potential of their investment. Palm Jumeirah is a prime example of how much the city has grown as it has rapidly evolved into a highly exclusive beachfront destination.

Some of the most lucrative investments can be found in Dubai’s thriving off-plan sector, where new developments allow investors to buy in at a relatively low price threshold. As these developments attain completion and their surrounding communities continue to grow, there is capital appreciation and a significant growth in property values. These are the communities that will transform into key residential districts with time, and further development will only provide more excellent opportunities for property investors.

Dubai is one of the most sought-after beachfront cities in the world, taking inspiration from the vibrant coastal communities of the Mediterranean and Miami to craft its own unique lifestyle. As the city has continued to expand over the years, new developments have been built on its shores, along with man-made islands that offer a more exclusive form of beachfront living. Once seen purely as a sunny vacation spot, Dubai’s coast has become a prime residential space with some of the most sought-after luxury properties in the city.

The types of properties available in beachfront communities range from apartments in high-rise complexes that look out over the sea to villas in gated neighbourhoods with private beaches. Apartments in a newer area like Emaar Beachfront have sleek contemporary design with cool neutral colours, with flowing layouts, and floor-to-ceiling glass paneling. If you’re seeking a larger living space with more varied design options, you can find a premium selection of beachfront villas in areas such as Palm Jumeirah and Jumeirah Bay Island. Buyers also have the opportunity to buy plots of land and construct their own beachfront homes from the ground up. 

That combination of bespoke design and secluded coastal living has made them the most coveted residential destinations in the city, routinely commanding record prices.
As one would expect from a bustling city like Dubai, the beachfront communities offer an excellent selection of amenities for residents and visitors alike. Jumeirah Beach Residence, for example, has a lively boardwalk that features boutique retail outlets, cafes, and restaurants with streetside seating, a central plaza with play areas for children, and water-based activities like jet skiing.

 For those who want to keep away from the crowds, an area like Palm Jumeirah is an ideal choice due to its many private beaches.
Dubai’s beachfront communities are well-connected to the rest of the city through its extensive road network, allowing residents to easily commute between the coastline and the central business district.


Dubai's beachfront properties blend Mediterranean and Miami styles with luxury, offering stunning sea views, exclusive villas, and vibrant amenities like Jumeirah Beach Residence.
