Fully upgraded 2 bedroom in Rimal JBR

Dont recommande for families with the children. Very noisy, renovation in every second appartment: drilling, hammering. It’s a management who gave the permission and who doesn’t care about the rest of tenants. I have newborn baby and we have nowhere to hide or escape, paid a lot to rent appartment here what became a torturing trap.

I have been a tenant for 3 years and the experience I have had so far is terribly poor. Very poorly maintained building. Dirty everywhere....elevators, floors (with lots of waste stored in common areas), security/reception that has a phone that has not been working for 4 months even though the concern was raised both electronically and personally to the building management. What are you doing in case of an emergency? Who will help and respond? They have a ticket system for service requests and complaints but rarely they properly execute on those. Instead, you just get an email back reading "Your case was resolved" When? Where? Simply ridiculous. I strongly advise to avoid Rimal 1. Also, as reported by Shadi (see previous comments): noise has been a nightmare. Drilling all day long for 4 months. And, of course, all allowed.

Terrible experience. I rent in JBR Rimal 1 and am spending all my time hearing drilling and maintenance noise. Now it's been 4 months the drilling sound is not stopping, when I complain they reply that the flat which the noise is coming from has permission to do it. Now another flat start also the renovation and I have to live 3 months with the noise.

It is a great to live in Rimal sector, as it is in the middle of JBR the Walk. Kids can go to the playground, cycling, scooter etc...if you like the beach, this is your location.

Rima 1 is located in the centre of JBR, a quick stroll from THE BEACH sign, the real beach itself, movie cinema and literally hundreds of cafe, restaurants in JBR, The Beach development and on the other side Dubai Marina. It is in the thick of it in every sense of the word. This comes with a downside. Guest parking and traffic can be a challenge. One advantage of Rima 1 is that the car parking entrance/exit is actually on Bin Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud St meaning getting in & out is easier than other JBR options. Surprisingly the higher apartments are very quiet considering the location. The building is now 15 years old and has seen better days. The maintenance is okay but most apartments need a refresh. Prices within the building particularly for the 1 & 2 beds are very affordable so the resident demographics are varied. Short term renters in the cooler months are also prevalent. Plaza level offers family friendly living with grass, retail stores etc though some of the stores in the immediate vicinity remain vacant. There is a Carrefour close to the Plaza level entrance which is handy.

Beautiful area of marina. Many nice outdoor cafes and restaurants. A very nice way to spend an afternoon. Worth stopping by a stroll or to catch a good meal.
