Dubai is the easiest place to live in the Gulf and high quality accommodation is in good supply.
Luxury apartments are available in plaza complexes throughout the city. All have excellent recreational facilities, in-house video and covered car parking. Some residential complexes provide a daily maid service.
A wide variety of villas is available to suit most tastes and circumstances. Most expatriate executives choose to live in the Jumairah suburb stretching southward along the coast from the city centre. For villas at the top of the range, the choice is between larger independent properties or smaller villas in compounds. The latter usually have swimming pools, and squash and tennis courts.
Most rented accommodation in Dubai is unfurnished and kitchens only partly equipped, but many villas and new apartments have central air-conditioning already installed. However, all types of furniture and household equipment are readily available.
