1 Bedroom Apartment in La Mer, Jumeirah

Some places just have that subtle sense of ease as soon as you walk in. This one bedroom apartment in La Rive at Port De La Mer made me stop for a moment without even meaning to. Standing there, looking out through the tall windows at the blue water and that endless skyline you honestly feel tucked away from it all even though you are right in the heart of Jumeirah. I always think that is something rare especially with all the buzz of Dubai just a few minutes away. Here though it is calm. Sometimes you hear just the gentle sounds from the marina or the little splash from the pool nearby.

The first thing you will notice is the natural light. The whole living space just glows. The way the light shifts throughout the day gives each room a warm feeling and it never really gets old. I ended up watching the sailboats drift past for a while pretending I had nowhere urgent to be and honestly it is hard to imagine a better way to start or end the day than out on your own balcony breathing in the sea air. Sometimes you can spot the Burj Khalifa far in the distance too. When the sky is clear the view is actually something you will want to show friends or just enjoy quietly with a cup of coffee early in the morning.

Even though this apartment is about seven hundred ninety square feet it really makes the space count. The kitchen is open right into the dining and living area so it feels like one big welcoming spot. It is not just for show. You could picture making a proper meal here or even just having some friends over for a chat and everyone ends up around the kitchen anyway. There is a feeling of flow from the living area out to the balcony. If you ever have people visiting the space works for that just as well as it works for quiet evenings on your own.

The bedroom is a good size and you will see there is a built in closet that actually fits more than you would think. The bathroom is right there but it does not feel squeezed in. Sometimes in smaller apartments you get odd little corners but here it just works. When you wake up you get that little slice of ocean view before you even leave the bed. It is the sort of place where you could leave the curtains open and fall asleep to the night sky over Dubai.

Besides the apartment itself the La Rive community in La Mer really does take everyday living to another level. You can go for a swim in one of the pools or use the gym that has everything you need to keep up your routine. There is direct access to the beach which honestly, most people who live here use far more than they expected. Walking along the waterfront in the evening feels peaceful. Sometimes you will see families or kids on bikes and it all has this relaxed southern European vibe which is not the easiest thing to find in Dubai. The marina is quite close too and if you ever want to take a boat out or just wander by the water with a coffee it is just steps away.

For those who care about eating out or shopping there are plenty of restaurants and little places along the waterfront. You end up picking favorites pretty quickly and the walk is always easy. Everything feels close but never crowded. The community is such that you can always find a quiet space for yourself or join in when things are a bit livelier.

This apartment at La Rive suits so many situations. Maybe you want a laid back primary home or you are looking for a smart investment in Dubai property since the location is pretty much always in demand. The vibe here is hard to sum up in words though. It is the kind of place you need to feel for yourself. Any questions or if you feel like coming to see it in person let us know.
