Holiday homes in JBR (Jumeirah Beach Residence)

Beachfront towers on a free public beach, with The Walk's restaurants below and the tram at the door, making it Dubai's easiest beach base. Typical prices: AED 680–AED 2,160 / night.

JBR is a strip of around 40 residential and hotel towers running along a 1.7 km stretch of sand. Short-stay homes here are mostly apartments, from studios to large family flats, and many look straight over the sea or towards Ain Dubai on Bluewaters Island.

Below the towers, The Walk and The Beach add restaurants, shops and watersports, so whole days can be spent on foot. Families and beach-focused holidaymakers are the core guests; expect crowds on weekend evenings and through the winter peak.
