Al Furjan sits between Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Sheikh Zayed Road in southern Dubai, with Discovery Gardens, Jumeirah Park, and The Gardens around it. The community has its own Route 2020 metro station, so many residents can get onto the rail network without a long trip. If
Al Furjan metro station on the Route 2020 line is located in the area. From the community's center, it's about a
Great mix of apartment and villa communities. Emerging community hubs such as Al Furjan Center, good access to the metro and major highways. Closely located to great leisure and entertainment such as Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, Ibn Battuta Mall and various golf courses.
Al Furjan is an ideal community for those seeking a balanced lifestyle, offering the perfect blend of connectivity and tranquility. Strategically located with direct access to the Dubai Metro, it is a commuter’s dream—making my husband’s daily travel to Abu Dhabi remarkably easy while keeping my own office at Al Fardan Exchange well within reach. Whether you prefer modern apartments or spacious villas, the community feels fresh and well-maintained. Life here is defined by its serene atmosphere: mornings and evenings are best spent walking through lush greenery accompanied by the sound of birds, all with minimal traffic to disturb the peace. For families, the abundance of parks and playgrounds provides a safe, vibrant space for children to play. Meanwhile, the Al Furjan Club serves as a dedicated hub for health and recreation, offering everything from padel courts to professional fitness lessons. In Al Furjan, you truly get the best of both worlds—metropolitan convenience paired with a quiet, village-like charm.
I’ve been living in Al Furjan for some time now. I think it’s a great place to live. The community feels quiet and well-planned which makes it perfect for families and people who like an area unlike the busy parts of Dubai. One of the things about Al Furjan is that it’s easy to get around if you have a Car. Sheikh Zayed Road and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road are nearby so I can get to Dubai Marina, Jebel Ali or even Expo City easily. But if you do not own a car, then public transport is a but problematic in the inner areas. The bus F45 goes around, but the frequency is not great. The Discovery Gardens Metro Station is close by from many areas, but again, if you stay in the inner areas, it can be upwards 45 mins of walk. There is the Al Furjan Pavilion and Al Furjan West Pavilion which have everything I need like supermarkets, cafes, pharmacies and small restaurants. I also like that there are parks walking tracks and open spaces in Al Furjan so it’s easy to go for a walk or spend time outdoors. Overall I think Al Furjan is a great place to live because it’s peaceful. Personally, I’ve really enjoyed living in Al Furjan.
It has good connectivity with direct access to major highways and the Dubai Metro Route EXPO 2020 via Al Furjan Metro Station, making travel to places like Dubai Marina easy. Overall, it’s considered a comfortable and affordable area for families and investors, though some parts are still developing.
I love how calm Al Furjan is, yet it still has everything you need. The community mall, Furjan Pavilion, has a Spinneys and a couple of restaurants, pharmacies, and a tailor shop. Al Furjan Club next to the pavilion has a gym, swimming pool, and a tennis court, so you have everything in one place. The metro is a 5-minute walk from my building (Masakin Al Furjan), which makes commuting a breeze. There are also plenty of walking tracks, and the one leading to the pavilion is especially green. Driving is quite effortless since traffic isn't an issue here. Plus, apartments here are reasonably priced compared to other areas. The only downside is that Al Furjan needs more leisure options.
i personally love furjan, calm and quite and average prices with very good quality plus the fact that the commute there is very accessible and always on time.
Avenue Residence 5
Renting an apartment here has been the worst experience of my life. The building was supposed to be brand new, but has many issues with plumbing. The amenities, like the kids’ play area and swimming pool, are also closed for the last 6months with no end in sight for its opening. To make matters worse, construction is happening on two nearby buildings and the roads are being repaired.
Azizi Plaza
It’s a good location and very good building to stay. Newly built and all amenities nearby.
Westwood By IMTIAZ
I have lived in Westwood by Imtiaz for around a year. During my time there, the building security and maintenance was amazing. The building sits in the middle of Discovery Gardens and The Gardens metro stations - both easily walkable. There is a convenience store nearby and the Discovery Pavilion complex is also nearby for any shopping. All rooms are smart home equipped and easy to setup. The furnishing quality of the building is top notch. I really enjoyed using the facilities like gym, swimming pool etc as well since they were properly maintained and cleaned regularly.
Makeen Al Furjan Villas
If you are looking for a standalone villa community close to the main roads this is the place. Not many people know that Al Furjan is huge, and some places you need to drive for kms before you hit the exit. This community is ideal if you need to be close to main exits.
Makeen Al Furjan Villas
Al Furjan is a vast area and Makeen Al Furjan community is right at the start of the Al Furjan west. Very close to the main road unlike some other communities that are located up the hill and takes a long time to enter or exit.

Azizi Developments has a big footprint here, with Azizi Star, Azizi Central, Azizi Amir, Azizi Orchid, Azizi Zain, Samia Azizi, Shaista Residences, and Roy Mediterranean offering studios from roughly 320 sq ft and one to three-bedroom units up to about 1,800 sq ft.

If you need more space, Dubai Style, West Village, and Quortaj include larger 5 and 6-bedroom homes that reach 6,500 sq ft or more, with some offering roof access and standalone plots.

Al Furjan Metro on the Route 2020 line sits within the community, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road puts Dubai Marina and Expo City within about 11 to 12 minutes and roughly 15 minutes by car. It's less suited to residents who want nightlife on the doorstep or waterfront views.
Al Furjan is not fully gated today, but Nakheel has confirmed that gating is underway after owner consultations. Some areas such as Masakin Al Furjan and Tilal Al Furjan are already gated, which often causes the confusion.
Construction of Al Furjan began in September 2010, and the first phase was completed in May 2013. The community has expanded steadily since then with new villa clusters like Murooj Al Furjan and Tilal Al Furjan, plus a wave of apartment towers by Azizi, Danube, and others.

Returns vary by building, cluster, and unit type, so compare specific listings before you commit.

Al Furjan is the newer, lower-density neighbor to Discovery Gardens, with a wider mix of villas, townhouses, and modern apartments and generally higher price points. Discovery Gardens is older, denser, and made up mostly of low-rise garden apartments at more budget-friendly rents. Both share the Route 2020 metro line, so your choice usually comes down to whether you want a villa community feel or a more compact apartment cluster.
Masakin Al Furjan, Azizi Tulip, Avenue Residence 5, Pearlz by Danube, and Nadine Residences are among the buildings within walking distance of Al Furjan Metro Station. Residents in these towers can reach the platform in a few minutes on foot, which is one of the community's biggest draws.
