The project is very new almost 1 and half years old. It is a community made up of 10-14 buildings and joint shops (which till this moment are not opened, not a single supermarket or any store is open yet) a common area with beautiful scenery and greenery, while 2 more… pools are made for children only as they are maximum 1.2m deep and without sun beds. The finishing of the building is very cheap, it very bad, paint comes off easily, tiles break easy, water leaks from faucets sometime, the sound isolation is ZERO if you like to live in a calm house, do not move in, you can hear your neighbors talking sometimes. The worst spec. is the Chiller fees, it is supplied by EMPOWER, however managed by the project agency which tends to split the billing and fees as they like, the average for 1BHK in peak summer is 1,000 AED (chiller only excluding DEWA) and on other day average is 500-700 aed/month however if you do not use the chiller at all you will pay 180-200 aed per month.Show less
Al Telal 5
Leaking Basement & Poor maintenance
I've been living in Telal5 for 2 years. Initally it seemed great with okay maintenance. The price was higher than market value but we decided to take it since it had closed kitchen and good room size. As the years went by, the reduced the rent due to market condition more… but maintenance has suffered. There is hardly any cleaning of the corridors and the floors are a mess. The basement is covered in water half of the time and am not sure what water has been leaking here for more than a year. The pest issues have increased due to poor cleanliness and bad habit of fellow neighbours who leave the food all around the garbage room. The management is least bothered by millions of complaints I hace made and am still paying more than market value for my stay. I would not reccomend staying at Telal 5 in the near future.Show less
Marina Pinnacle
Great Views, Great Location in Marina
Hey,
I have been staying in Marina Pinnacle for the last 2 years now. One of the friends told me that it's not a good building but I feel it's an amazing building. Specially Tower A, facing Marina side.
I have stayed in many places within Marina and JBR for the more… last 10 years in Dubai but this place is best-suited location-wise. Cabs are just down the building, Tram is 5 min walk at a visual distance, Metro is 10 min walk. Some of the best beach clubs in Dubai - Barasti & Zero Gravity are within walking distance. Skydive is at walking distance.
You come out of the building and there is your Marina walk.
The building is surrounded by over 4 supermarkets and 4 pharmacies.
There is a dry cleaning and saloons inside the building itself.
There are 4 pools, a jacuzzi sauna, a big gym and all most everything you can imagine.
The security of the building is pretty tight but i consider it as good. It should be tight to keep the unwanted elements under control. Rents are low too.Show less
Preatoni Tower
Do not move in here
It's a new building in JLT, so we moved in with high hopes. There were lots of issues straight away but maintenance usually resolved them quickly. And then October hit and A/C was shut off to the ENTIRE building. We live on a high floor facing the sun all day more… so it got up to 28-30 degrees every day the whole winter. We woke up sweating and fell asleep sweating. Absolutely miserable. Spoke to many other tenants and they were all miserable too :( We raised the issue to everyone over and over: building managements, HOA, landlord, RERA, etc, No one could resolve this.Show less
Zumurud Tower
Big broken apartments
Big apartments, decent views but the apartment is get worse with time. The yellow water in cisterns and taps will make your life miserable. The moisture due to old AC ducts will keep the entire apartment wet and moist whenever they are off or above 23deg. The tiles in the more… kitchen are falling down. The traps in the balcony smell of filth. The traps will keep on clogging every 2 months. Gym machines are damaged and not working anymore.Show less
Al Waleed Garden
Absolutely terrible, stay away!
Pros:
- spacious flats, but this is not rare in Dubai
Cons:
- low quality finishing;
- the paint comes off from literally sticking a sticky note on the wall!
- very loud neighbors. It seems this building only has young loud people living in it. Expect to hear music at all odd hours;
- very more… thin walls. You can hear neighbors doing everything. It’s like they’re in the next room;
- access to the building is very difficult;
- no amenities nearby but a gas station;
- AC bill is ridiculously high;
- Overall expect to pay way more in bills in this building;
- gym and pool area are very small for a building this big;
- Way expensive for the area and what it offers;
- management does absolutely nothing when you complain or about maintenance;
TLDR:
- Very loud people living in it. Pricey. Not worth it. Go somewhere else.Show less
Ghoroob
Sewage smell, very bad maintained old apartments,
Very bad community, every night we can't sleep from the sewage smell, very bad old maintained apartments, never to forget you need maintained 12 month per year and yes you have to pay for everything, cooling system is the worst always not cooling properly and don't forget the amounts we more… pay to empower.... its not worth living here and wasting your money with zero response and responsibility from this managementShow less
Dreams Towers
Best Location Apartment
This building is my favorite because of the location, easy access to metro, tax, marina walk, beach, restaurants, bars ... you name it. Right place to relax with 3 by 6 meter balcony. You don't need to go any where else, everything is here. Shopping mall is 5 minutes walk, more… metro is 2 minutes walk, beach is 7 minutes walk. Restaurant and bars are 1 minute walk. Massage and salons are around the building.
I am enjoying staying here. Don't pay attention for picky people writing negative comments.Show less
Princess Tower
Nice building but horrible parking
It is a pitty that such a good tower, best location not to have good parking solution.
Best Gym and swimming pool and good security. Building is very clean and good place to live a luxury life. Parking is the headache. First to get to your parking, very narrow passage and more… second there is no place for trucks to load and unload furniture. I believe they should allocate couple of parking at the ground floor for this purpose.Show less
Falconcity of Wonders
Great community - one of the best in Dubai
Execellent community, one of the best in Dubai. Very peaceful, green, parks and mostly park facing houses, big houses and lot of parking and play areas for kids.
Community center with Gym, pool, basketballl court, super market, pharmacy and food court.
Also, it's in middle of Dubai, so very easy to reach more… anywhere within 20 minutes across Dubai.Show less
Al Madar Scala Tower
The worst experience ever, zero maintenance!
The worst experience ever, zero maintenance, admin incompetence, I regret that I paid cash for a period of 12 months! Wish i could be able to post few pictures!
The Gardens
Awesome place
I moved in August 2019 with lot of anxiety after living in Sharjah for 17 years but this is a good move if I look back after a year. The Place is filled with Trees & Plants which makes it so nice on the Eyes and morning walks & cycling more… makes it so special. I love my Balcony view of the Greenery and Bird's chirping.
The IBN Mall is right in front of us and manage most of the things but most of the options there are quite expensive. Luckily we have FESTIVAL PLAZA opened up and has IKEA & LULU which is a Double prize in the same place.
The Exits & Entries are increased now in the last 6-8 months so it makes it much easier than before. We are waiting for the METRO works to finish so that the Roads between Gardens & Discovery Gardens open too.
Only drawback is the District Cooling charges which is expensive apart from the DEWA & RENT.
In short this is one of the Best place to live in Dubai & I simply Love it :)Show less
