Holiday homes in City Walk
An open-air, walkable neighbourhood of boutiques, cafés and Coca-Cola Arena, minutes from Downtown yet calmer and lower-rise. Typical prices: AED 920–AED 1,880 / night.
City Walk is a Meraas-built district of tree-lined streets, low- and mid-rise apartment buildings and open-air retail between Al Wasl Road and Al Safa Street. Short-stay supply is limited and mostly one- to three-bedroom apartments in buildings with pools and children's play areas.
Guests come for the pedestrian-friendly streets, restaurants and family attractions such as The Green Planet, and for concerts and shows at Coca-Cola Arena. Downtown and the Jumeirah beaches are each a short drive away.

One-bedroom prices for mid-November 2026 sit about 10% above mid-October; big Coca-Cola Arena events and the November–January peak tighten availability.

Questions people ask
Are there many holiday homes in City Walk?
Not many. Short-stay supply is small compared with Downtown or Business Bay, so availability is tighter around big Coca-Cola Arena events and in the winter peak.
Is City Walk walkable?
Yes, it was designed as a pedestrian district with wide pavements and shaded boulevards, though a taxi is the easiest way to reach the metro or the beach.
Is City Walk good for children?
Yes. The Green Planet and other family attractions are in the district, and residential buildings typically have pools and play areas.
Do holiday homes in Dubai need a licence?
Yes. Every holiday home unit in Dubai needs a permit from the Department of Economy and Tourism (DET). Each listing shows its permit number once it is issued.
Is there a tourism fee on a holiday home stay?
Yes. Holiday homes collect the Tourism Dirham, a fee per bedroom per night set by DET. It is included in the total we confirm before you pay.

Fresh linen and towels, Wi-Fi, electricity, water and air conditioning, a fitted kitchen and cleaning between stays. Each listing lists anything extra.
