Huge Garden | Well Maintained | Type B

Palmera 1 is the quietest Palmera and located the furthest away from Al Qudra road right next to Alvorada 4, but still in very close proximity of one of the main entrances to the Ranches. The houses , whilst a little more established , are better built than most new communities and have generally got bigger rooms , bigger plots and decent size gardens. Unlike most other Townhouse communities, the villas are situated around a ' 'green' square that contains only 6 properties. The villas are set away from the road which makes it very safe for children and pets and the community is very green. The landscaping is similar to the independent villa communities in the Ranches , where the roads and pavement are separated by lots of plants and trees , which is superior to some of the other communities like Al Reem . There is a , real mix of people and nationalities living here ranging from families with kids , to couples as well as single people and the community spirit is second to none , as everyone is looking after each other and willing to lend a helping hand when needed. The community is very pet friendly as most people have dogs and cats and the when the sun goes down ( or comes up) the place is buzzing with people enjoying their walks with their furry friends. The pool area is lovely and there is a play ground for kids as well as a BBQ area. There is no gym , that's the only reason I have given it 4 stars instead of 5. Last but not least, Palmera 1 doesn't really flood and remains accessible in the case of heavy rains and floods. I have lived in the community for 6 years now, I love it here and it truly feels like home.
