Luxury: Full MarinaView | 80mq | 20th floor
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Perfect Stay in Dubai Marina! We had an incredible stay at this beautiful Dubai Marina apartment! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The apartment was spotless, modern, and exactly as described in the listing — if not better. The views of the Marina were absolutely stunning, especially at night! The location was perfect — just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, cafes, and public transport. It was the ideal base for exploring Dubai. The building itself was secure and well-maintained, with great amenities like the gym and pool. Our host was fantastic — super responsive, friendly, and helpful with great local recommendations. Check-in was seamless, and we felt right at home the entire time. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a luxurious and convenient stay in Dubai Marina. We’d definitely come back again!

King Bed & Views, Lux Amenities
I had a fantastic stay at Vadim Place in Business Bay, Dubai. The apartment itself was lovely and very clean, making for a comfortable and pleasant experience – it truly felt like a home away from home. One of the biggest highlights was the nice location. Being near the promenade was incredibly convenient – I loved being able to easily pick up an e-bike and cycle to Dubai Mall in just about 20 minutes, which was a great way to explore the area. Beyond the great place and location, the host was truly exceptional. They were incredibly helpful and always available to answer any questions or provide assistance, which made my stay even more enjoyable and stress-free. Plus, they were not disturbing your stay at all, contributing to that wonderful "at home" feeling. I highly recommend Vadim Place for anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-located stay in Dubai with a very attentive and considerate host. You won't be disappointed!

833keys - 1 BR - Pool & Jacuzzi with Burj View
One of the best hosts we’ve had ever for an Airbnb, always responsive, informative and helpful. The apartment is located in 15 Northside which is one of the best residential buildings in Business Bay and the apartment has a canal view with Burn Khalifa view. Few steps away from downtown and has some of the most beautiful scenery in Dubai.

Next to METRO 1BED w/ Panoramic Lake Views
Beautiful apartment and great location with a lot of good restaurants and DMCC metro station right outside the building. I loved everything about my stay specially the bedroom with comfy bed and blackout curtains.

This was my second time staying at Hammad’s place, and once again, it was a fantastic experience. Hammad is a consistently excellent host responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely welcoming.

I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend Hammad to anyone looking for a reliable and top-notch Airbnb experience.

5-Minute walk Dubai Mall & Burj Khalifa
The location is super convenient, just 13 minutes from the airport. The lobby looks nice, and the inside is exactly as described on Airbnb. I really like the simple design, especially the marble dining table and wooden coffee table. There are also several essential oil diffusers, which create a nice atmosphere. It’s great that they provide snacks too. It’s just a 5 to 10-minute walk to Dubai Mall, which is perfect. I highly recommend this place!

Stylish 2BR w/ Partial Marina View
It was a really nice place to stay at! Especially the terrace was amazing with a beautiful view. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need from cleaning supplies to plates and so on. Port de la mer itself is a quiet place with lots of possibilities to go for a walk. I for sure can recommend Georg and this apartment!

Posh style Luxe 1BR near Burj Khalifa & Dubai Mall
Artem was a great host, the apartment was equipped with everything I needed, the building was at a perfect location. Will definitely be my go to place whenever I visit Dubai again.

Luxurious 2BR Amazing View of Burj Khalifa skyline
2 adults and 1 child and we had more than enough space! Spotless, clean and a beautiful sea view which we enjoyed during the day and evening. 2 great size bedrooms and bathrooms and a n ample size kitchen which we used for breakfast and some lunches. The communal pool was pretty and there was also a well equipped shared gym. Spinney’s supermarket nearby and a minute walk to the harbour with delicious restaurants by the waterfront. My friend and I had the best time and we will definitely visit again. It’s slightly out of the ‘centre’ of Dubai but we enjoyed being out of the craziness of it all. Plus, taxi’s are cheap and plentiful so we jumped in one when visiting some of Dubai’s sights. Jay was an excellent host and communication was seamless and easy. Thank you!

Beachfront 2BD Deluxe Full Palm view private beach
We stayed in this dream apartment. Host Raymond welcomed us very warmly and always responded quickly to our questions. When we arrived, he had nice touches. The apartment is beautiful, clean. And everything is well thought out. Very well equipped kitchen, bathroom with hair dryer, bathrobe. Beach bag and linen. Quiet place away from the hustle and bustle but close to the different possibilities of activities. Beautiful private beach. We were able to enjoy the gym overlooking the sea and the Atlantic. Very nice pool. Everything was really perfect. Best place we've booked. And we hope to be back soon.
