Ask on WhatsApp

Dubai Silicon Oasis is a free zone and technology park with residential towers, villa clusters, Silicon Central Mall and Souq Extra. It sits at the junction of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and the Dubai–Al Ain Road, next to Dubai International Academic City.

Shared rooms here are usually in newer apartment buildings, and many adverts specify ladies-only, men-only or executive occupancy. Renters are mostly university students and staff at DSO companies; most rely on buses or cars because there is no metro yet.
