The apartment exceeded my expectations. It has everything you need.

I would start by appreciating Berk as our Host, he has been really kind and so supportive throughout our stay in Dubai. As our stay was approaching, Berk was kind enough to know about all our needs and extra things we would require during our stay and he made sure to provide us everything we needed. In Dubai we know, we always have to buy drinking water, but Berk made sure to make us very comfortable and not struggle for these things. He got us a whole casket of water bottles without any extra charges. And Jawad, our co-host was such a humble and helping man. He made sure we didn't have any problems during our whole stay. Kudos to these people who are adding so much love and support to the Airbnb community. Next about the home, it was absolutely beautiful and we felt so much at home. From all the supplies & amenities in the house to all furniture and decor everything in the house made our stay super comfortable. I highly recommend this Airbnb to you all when you visit Dubai. Thank you.

Our experience at this villa in Dubai Hills was truly beyond perfect. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed, and the check-in process was seamless and stress-free.

We had a great stay at this Airbnb in Dubai. The place was exactly as describedâclean, well-equipped, and true to the pictures. We did encounter an issue with mold around the ACs during the first few days, which can happen in Dubai due to the constant use of air conditioning. However, the property manager was extremely responsive, sending someone to address the problem right away. Iâve stayed at other Airbnbs in Dubai, and this one stands out for its excellent management. Everything was well-organized, and the team ensured our stay was comfortable. Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend this well-managed property.â

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviewsLake View Villa Dubai Springs Beach House
My family stayed 5 weeks in this beautiful home. The home has been recently renovated and felt very well kept and homely. Despite the summer heat we were able to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and made use of the community swimming pools, playgrounds and lakeside walking paths. The house was extremely child friendly. Stefanie and her husband Mike were extremely wonderful hosts - welcoming and very responsive. We were grateful to also have the service of her housekeeper who was also great. All in all my family were very happy with our stay and would highly recommend. I would not be honest if I did not mention that there were some maintenance issues that cropped up during our stay like an AC leak and an issue with a fuse but Stefanie had these resolved very very quickly so we this not really impact our stay. Donât walk, run! This is a wonderful base from which to explore Dubai. Thank you Stefanie!

Your guide to Dubai
All About Dubai
Dubai began as a small fishing village and eventually grew into one of the most dynamic metropolises in the United Arab Emirates. Itâs a fascinating desert city, with a soaring modern skyline made up of some of the worldâs tallest towers and some of the largest shopping malls on the planet. Youâll also find championship golf courses, gorgeous beaches, man-made islands, and even indoor ski slopes here.
Itâs easy to focus on the hypermodern half of the city in all of its glitzy, air-conditioned glory, but donât overlook Dubaiâs historic Old Quarter where you can check out 19th-century architecture, browse the gold souk for jewelry, get a bite at one of the more traditional restaurants or tea houses, and visit the Dubai Museum thatâs housed inside a fort from 1787. The exciting blend of ancient heritage and ahead-of-the-curve futurism is what makes Dubai so unique, and if youâd like to get a better feel for the cityâs natural surroundings, you can head out on an excursion to the nearby desert.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Dubai
Thereâs really no way around it: Dubai â and the entire region surrounding it â is hot. After all, this is largely desert country, and the primary way to elude the heat is to stay indoors, whether youâre out exploring or at your apartment or condo rental in Dubai. This heat is why many of Dubaiâs top attractions are indoors, with plenty of air conditioning to keep you comfortable. And while summertime temperatures average among the highest on the planet, the winter months are comparably mild, with plenty of comfortable daytime average temperatures and some pleasantly cool nights. Ramadan, a holy month for Muslims, gradually shifts its occurrence each calendar year, but if youâre visiting during this time, expect to find a different level of activity as religious practitioners observe traditions of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community.
Top things to do in Dubai
Burj Khalifa
At 2,722 feet and rising 160 stories, the Burj Khalifa is not only one of the worldâs tallest buildings, but itâs also one of the worldâs tallest free-standing structures. There are three different observation decks where you can extend your visit: The lounge offers tea, baked goods, and champagne while the top two have fast elevator rides, telescopes, virtual reality experiences, and 360-degree observation decks.
Gold and Spice Souks
To experience the marketplace energy thatâs fueled this part of the world for centuries, head out to the Gold Souk and the Spice Souk. Souks, or bazaars, represent the essence of trade in the same vein as they have for hundreds of years. Dubaiâs Gold Souk is one of the legendary gold jewelry trading centers in the world, and the Spice Souk⌠well, you just have to go and smell for yourself.
Dubai Mall
Dubai is a shoppersâ paradise, and Dubai Mall is its epicenter. It ranks as one of the worldâs largest indoor shopping centers, and youâll need a highly detailed map to navigate it from end to end. There are more than 1,300 stores, boutiques, and shops here. And there are also countless entertainment and kid-friendly options, including an ice rink and a 22-screen cinema.
