    One of the best areas of Dubai - I lived here for around 4 years. Pretty good residential hub with many apartments and waterfront community. Easily accessible via Metro, couple of nearby attractions as well - Jameel Arts Centre, MBR Library etc. In short - a very easy to commute central location and quite ideal for young professionals and families. They even have a padel court and tennis court :D!
