Market guide

Dubai Marina rental guide

Dubai Marina is one of the most in-demand apartment communities in Dubai and was built around the marina and promenade. The rent fluctuates based on the residential tower, the floor of the apartment, the view and whether it is furnished or not. Apartments with the best views of the Marina and the sea, and those in newer residential towers such as Marina Gate, tend to command higher rents than the older residential towers that are available at a better rate but sit further from the water.
