Skyview Tower

very poor experience staying at 608 Skyview Tower, and I strongly advise others to think twice. I stayed for 2 years

From the start, the condition of the flat was unacceptable — old, poorly maintained, and far below basic living standards. The air conditioning system is leaking, and even if you don’t use it, you’re still expected to pay for it. The owner showed zero concern, was completely unapologetic, and seemed more interested in squeezing out every penny than providing a livable space. Reasoning with him was pointless — he was either ignorant or simply didn’t care.

The building itself is aging and badly managed. The building management was non-cooperative and dismissive, offering no help or support when issues arose.

Frankly, everything was disappointing, except for two things:

The view is admittedly beautiful.
The pool is decent.
Aside from those, the experience was a nightmare. Poor facilities, terrible communication, and a greedy, unhelpful owner made it feel like

The building is good for tourists as most of the apartments are on Air BNB and likes. Great location for tourists but not a place for the family and the ones who wants to stay for long.  In and out from the building is a menace. Maintenance is poor. 

The building is superbly located with easy access; however, the only drawback is the limited availability of guest parking but now they are offering more guest parkings






The building is very good and Family oriented
5 Min walk from beach 
Restaurant on Ground Floor 
The apartment was very specious.

I absolutely love the location. So close to the beach, great restaurants and the best that Marina has to offer. The tower is only 15 minutes walking distance from the metro station making it easy to commute around Dubai. 

The apartments are very well designed with straight corners, lots of living space and high ceilings. I always stay here when in Dubai 

Generally speaking it's a nice building to live in, except some of the facilities they are a bit old school (gym needs to be bigger, replace the sun-chairs...).
The staff is friendly but not really helpful when it comes to big issues. 
Child friendly, haven't seen pets yet

Dubai Marina

Dubai Marina is a beautiful place with amazing waterfront views, great restaurants, and a lively atmosphere. It's perfect for a walk, relaxing, or enjoying the city skyline.

Dubai Marina is one of the best communities in Dubai

Dubai Marina is generally a great community; however, commute-wise, it is extremely difficult.

Going in and out of the Marina is not necessarily the easiest commute. Additionally, because of the tram, you will encounter a lot of traffic lights. Let alone the fact that it is known for being a tourist community, it gets extremely busy during the winter months, starting in November and lasting until February.

If you understand the pros and cons of it. 

Dubai Marina has both residential and commercial buildings and offices. Most of the popular companies are located in Dubai Marina. It has people from all around the world, you could experience different culture. Dubai Marina is good for relaxing around the water in cafes and restaurants. It is nearby to Marina mall, Nakheel mall, Palm Jumeriah, JLT, Blue water Island and JBR. Metro, tram and bus facilities are available. Not much parks for the kids to play but most of the residential buildings has swimming pool and play areas. Nice view of ships and cruise around. Views are amazing from the balconies of most of the buildings. Main tech hubs are situated here. People who wish to have peaceful, greenery place might not like this busy area.

Very lively and vibrant area! The Marina Walk/Promenade is the highlight of this community, with beautiful walking path along the marina harbour. This community has great restaurants across all cuisines. Weather gets windy during evening (non-summer months). Ample places for families to stroll, walk and enjoy. Lived here since a more than a year and absolutely loved it. Traffic can be a challenge during peak hours. Marina also offers great connectivity across tram, metro and bus. The community is very diverse with residents (and tourists) from all over the globe which adds to unique touch. Highlight recommended for young professionals and new families 

Dubai Marina delivers on its promise of a vibrant, walkable lifestyle. The buzz of the neighbourhood is great - there's always energy, whether you're heading out for a morning coffee or an evening stroll. The Marina Walk is a genuine highlight, and the sheer variety of restaurants, cafés and shops on your doorstep is hard to beat. For anyone who wants convenience and a lively atmosphere, it genuinely delivers.

The downsides are real though. Traffic can be seriously frustrating, particularly at peak hours, and the ongoing roadworks have added another layer of congestion that tests your patience. The neighbourhood can also tip into feeling overcrowded at weekends and during busier periods - which, depending on your mood, can make it feel less like a community and more like a tourist hotspot.

Overall, a great place to live if you embrace the energy - just factor in the commute.
