To say that Dubai is a city that never sleeps would be an understatement. It sometimes seems like a new residential area pops up every night as we’re tucked up in bed dreaming, each one more luxurious than the one before. In such a fast-paced and ever-expanding city, to consistently remain one of the best areas to live in Dubai is no small feat but it is one that Downtown Dubai is likely to boast for many decades to come.
Not only is it home to the city’s most defining structure, the Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai is teeming with stunning residential areas across a range of property types. It is one of Dubai’s most coveted addresses regardless of whether you’re living the bachelor life or raising a family of five.
The views are unparalleled to anywhere else

Imagine waking up every day to a close-up view of the tallest building in the world. Apartments such as this one bedroom for sale in Al Bahar Residences, Old Town, listed with haus&haus, definitively proves the point that the Downtown views are one-of-a-kind.
It’s a whole other level of luxury

This apartment, part of the luxurious off-plan project Mada Residences, is a gorgeous 4-bed flat in a 36-storey tower that will offer residents spacious and intelligently designed apartments. And all of this will be located a mere 1-minute walk from the Dubai Mall through an air-conditioned bridge that connects the properties to Dubai Mall and the Fountain Views. That in of itself is pretty incredible! Listed with Layan Estate Brokers.
Downtown Dubai IS A cultural AND NIGHTLIFE hotspot

Downtown Dubai, also known as ‘the centre of now’, is also home to some of the city’s finest dining and nightlife venues! With a mix of much-loved homegrown concepts as well as luxurious restaurants, bars and lounges inside of its 5-star hotels, there’s no shortage of choice whether it’s a special occasion or a casual evening. Living in an apartment like the 2 bedrooms apartment for sale in The Address Sky View, listed with Blue Palace Real Estate, guarantees that fun and entertainment is never far away.
It is near to some of the best schools in the emirate

Not only can families live in luxuriously spacious 2+ bed apartments like this one in The Sterling, listed with KBS Real Estate – but the combination of convenient Downtown public transport links and the proximity of some of Dubai’s best schools are why families should take advantage of the area.
Jumeirah Beach is close – AND YOUR POOL IS CLOSER

If you’re a beach-lover then don’t worry – living in the hub of Downtown Dubai won’t isolate you from the golden coast. Jumeirah beach is a mere 10-minute drive from the majority of Downtown residences. Alternatively, you could become a poolside dweller instead as odds are, your luxurious Downtown apartment comes with a luxurious resident-only pool. The gorgeous private infinity pool pictured above is part of the package when you invest in an apartment in the Imperial Avenue’s off-plan project, listed with M&K Real Estate. Talk about serenity in the city!
