Diving for Pearls

In a city as bustling and dynamic as Dubai, it may be hard to imagine retreating to a peaceful oasis, but we may have just found it. Placed in a building inspired by traditional villages of the area, this home is the perfect escape for those here on business. Save the skyscrapers for work, and return home to a gorgeous pool surrounded by imposing palm trees – perfect for an evening drink as you mingle with fellow guests. And if you miss the skyscrapers, we’ve got you covered – grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the incredible skyline view from your balcony.

Don’t be concerned though – while you might feel away from it all, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Next door you’ll find the gigantic Dubai Maill and the Souq Al Bahar, replete with dining options.

Home truths:
*There’s free parking available on the premises
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*Your host owns multiple homes in this building, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might vary from the photos
