What Residents say about Jumeirah 1

Rishab D.

Jumeirah is a very peaceful and an upscale community with presence of trendy cafes and fine dining spots, easy access to the beaches and even some boutique shops. Multiple good supermarkets are in the vicinity. It is suitable for families in terms of the top schools, and parks nearby. Jumeirah is also well accessible to the key areas like Downtown and Business bay. For me it has been a sweet spot considering the proximity from all the areas, and this area has a strong sense of safety and familiarity. You will find families walking in the evenings, kids riding bikes and people spending time outdoors. However, public transport options are limited and a car dependency is required to travel and the traffic at peak hours is bad. The biggest tradeoff here is the cost for the rents and prices for houses. You will pay a premium for this space and quality of life. It is great for families, but not a budget friendly option. Not a modern or a flashy area, but it delivers for me where it matters the most for my family: comfort, stability, safety and quality of the environment.

We have been living in Jumeirah for 10 years — a family of five — and we love it. It's a low-rise community. You can walk or cycle ot the beach easily. It has some of the best schools in Dubai (HES, JESS, JC). It offers a great combination of quiet coffee places (Stomping Grounds, Backyard) and vibrant venues (J1, Four Seasons). It's about 20 minutes from DXB with no traffic, , and Sheikh Zayed Road is roughly 10 minutes away. On the downside, traffic gets quite busy during peak times (expect bumper-to-bumper driving on Jumeirah Beach Road, Al Wasl Road). It has also seen a surge in construction activity recently, with noticeably more heavy trucks on the streets.

Famous for its beachfront access, it offers a perfect blend of luxury, privacy, and outdoor lifestyle, making it ideal for families and those seeking a quieter, more relaxed pace of life.

The Al Wasl Building PR1007 is very nice overall. The location is near to perfect with a lovely community to walk around and plenty of shops and amenities in close proximity. The only improvements I could recommend would be a more well equipped gym and a more spacious pool. Apart from that we love living here! :-)
