Dubai is fast gaining a cult status in today’s world, not only due to its enviable trade and commerce, but also because of its emergence on the world map as a major tourism destination. The city of Dubai is facing as a result, an onslaught of visitors these days. They include the CEOs, executives, technicians, managers, holidaymakers, rich and famous and almost anybody else that you may think of. This has caused, as a consequence, a great stress on the hotel industry which was catering to most of the rising accommodation demands until recently. The other option, which is now widely being used for lodging is that of hiring privately owned villas and apartments on rent. Experts say they are going to play a significant role in Dubai’s tourism in the years to follow.
Memoirs suggest it was the 1960s that turned out to be a turning point in Dubai’s quest for wealth. They had an impressive growth rate by then due to the ongoing gold trade, which subsequently got aided because of the discovery of oil. Multinationals began converging at Dubai’s seashores with their assets and manpower in a huge fashion, and the sleeping town had suddenly become alive. One can measure the impact of that inflow of men and women from the fact that more than 70 percent of today’s population in Dubai is comprised of expatriates. The rush hasn’t stopped till this date and the queues for visas continue to spread out.
What leaves one disappointed though, is a lack of inexpensive accommodation that can leave you stranded in Dubai. Barring a few low-priced ones, most of the hotels in Dubai are very expensive. In addition, hotel bookings have to be made in advance, which keeping in mind their expenses can prove out to be a costly affair if the meetings had to be rescheduled or cancelled. This is where privately owned apartments, also called Dubai beach apartments, assume great significance for the visitors. They are found not only to be inexpensive, but also carrying with them extra space, added privacy and more facilities when compared against the hotel accommodation.
A majority of these rentals can be found located in Dubai Marina, Dubai beach and other essential areas of the megapolis. State of the art facilities such as high speed Internet, Cable TV, DVD player, swimming pool, gymnasium etc are offered with each property for hire. Weekly house keeping services do also get extended and so are the supplies of bed sheets, blankets, towels, shampoo, shower gel etc met. Apart from houses on rent one may also choose a place to live from the hotel apartment category. Some of these hotel apartments could also be found situated right at the beach, which also means they would have breath-taking sea-shore views for you to get delighted on.
Getting information on those who are providing apartments in Dubai would tell they are mostly real estate dealers. Some of these companies may be found being managed by highly professional teams. The same may not be said regarding others though. It is advised therefore, you did homework before going through any deal. The biggest caution is to know if the house really had a seaside view, in case you were looking for one. You might end up living with a view that was being blocked by several other apartments.
According to the residents in Dubai, ‘you would get to see a new building each new morning you got woken up’. Steps taken to boost the infrastructure have been producing results during the last four and half decades. World’s only seven star hotel stands tall at Dubai’s seashore today. Plans like Jebel Ali Free Zone and Dubai Marina are changing the way people had been thinking about the Gulf as a region. Very reputed bodies like ICC have got their headquarters moved into this famous city now. The world is watching these developments with interest, and willing to be a part of Dubai’s expansion. No doubt, investment, tourism and the number of visitors are going to keep knocking at Dubai’s doors. So would the demand for beach apartments do in the years to come now.
