1 bedroom apartment in Ciel Tower, Dubai Marina

Some places just make you want to stop for a second and look around. This one bedroom apartment in Ciel Tower Dubai Marina honestly does exactly that. When you first walk in you notice two things right away. One is just how much daylight pours through the windows and the other is the view you get from the balcony. You are up above almost everything and it feels a bit like you are floating between the city skyline and the Arabian Gulf. Sometimes you even forget you are standing in the middle of Dubai Marina because it is just so peaceful up here.

Ciel Tower itself is something people talk about all the time in Dubai right now. It is set to be the tallest hotel in the world which is still wild to say out loud. Rising up three hundred and sixty five metres above Dubai Marina it is hard not to stare at it from down below. Up here though it is actually surprisingly calm. The apartment is fully furnished so you do not have to start from scratch or go shopping for every little thing. The bedroom is roomy with these built in wardrobes where you just quietly tuck everything away. Not cluttered at all. The two bathrooms feel really new and fresh. It is the kind of place where you look at yourself in the mirror in the morning and think wow okay this feels good.

The living area feels pretty open so you never feel boxed in. I noticed a small detail while I was there too. You can actually sit out on the private balcony and see both the water and the city lights and if you are up early there is something nice about having your coffee while you watch the morning begin. The kitchen is not just for looks either. There is space for real cooking not just heating something up fast. The finishes are modern but do not feel cold at all. It just comes together in a way that feels pretty easy to live in. Nothing over the top. It just works.

This is all inside one of Dubai Marina's most talked about towers in a spot where honestly everything is close by. You just walk out and you are near the beach if you want a swim or to watch the sunset. There are always new restaurants opening nearby so you never really run out of places to eat or get a coffee. If you like to walk there are paths along the water and people out in the evenings. You see families you see people heading to work and sometimes you just see someone enjoying their break. Ciel Tower has its own rooftop infinity pool which is even better at sunset. There is also a fitness centre with good equipment so you can work out without having to go far. I actually saw a few people quietly checking their laptops in the business lounge which looked like a good place to get some work done or just relax with a book.

If you are thinking about the investment side Dubai Marina is known for strong rental yields and there are always tourists looking for a place to stay close to everything. You get that convenience of being right in the heart of the city but it never feels too busy in this apartment. And at the end of the day you have a home that is both a good place to live and something to put your mind at ease if you want to rent it out later.

Some homes just have a kind of ease about them and this one bedroom at Ciel Tower is one of those. The best way to find out if it feels right for you is really to see it for yourself. If you are curious or just want to walk through and get a feel of the place let me know any time.
