Holiday homes in Jumeirah
Dubai's classic low-rise beach district of villas, public beaches and cafés, running along the coast from La Mer to Umm Suqeim.
Jumeirah stretches along the coast between Dubai's older centre and Umm Suqeim and is made up mainly of low-rise private villas, with some apartment buildings. It is the villa-heavy choice for short stays, suited to larger families and groups who want space and a garden.
Guests are close to some of Dubai's best-known free beaches, including Jumeirah Public Beach, Kite Beach and Sunset Beach with its Burj Al Arab views. Cafés, Mercato Mall and Madinat Jumeirah are nearby, and a car or taxi is the norm.
Getting around
