Not to be confused with the developer Al Wasl Properties, the area known as Al Wasl is in west Dubai near the famous Safa Park and the soon to be completed Dubai Canal.

Comprising of mostly standalone villas, some villas in compounds and low level apartment buildings, the area sits between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Wasl Road. Al Wasl as an area is lined with palm trees and has a very suburban feel despite being close to some of Dubai’s busiest roads. 

Residents living in Al Wasl enjoy the excellent city views, in particular those of Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa. Safa Park was one of Dubai’s largest parks and was very popular with locals of Al Wasl and other residents but has since had to be revamped to make way for the Dubai Canal. The park is still iconic and used as a reference point by residents of Dubai.

At the northern end of Al Wasl is the very modern and fashionable City Walk development which consists of numerous dining and shopping outlets. Living on this side of Al Wasl gives residents easy access to Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa. The Al Amal Hospital is nearby as are a great number of schools and also the headquarters for Gulf News. The upmarket Galleria Mall is located on Al Wasl Road and is not far from the very distinctive Boxpark which has all sorts of restaurants, cafes and shops. Clearly, renting a house in Al Wasl comes with plenty of conveniences and comforts.
