3 Bedroom Apartment in Kingdom of Sheba, Palm Jumeirah

Some homes you just want to wander through slowly, noticing one thing at a time. This three bedroom apartment at Balqis Residence on the crescent of Palm Jumeirah is like that. You step in and the light sort of spills across the floor and the hallway just pulls you forward. It is on a lower floor so you still get a strong sense of connection to the sea and the gardens outside.

At first, things feel simple and uncluttered. When I walked in, the guest bathroom is right there on your right. That makes it easy if someone pops by or when you have a dinner. Keep walking and you see the laundry room and a proper maid's room tucked away enough that it feels private.

I really love the kitchen here. It is one where you could actually see yourself cooking for real, not just leaning on the counter with takeout. The counters are marble so when you touch them they are cool and smooth. From the kitchen you flow straight into a big open living and dining space. There is something about the way this room widens out with so much glass that just fills it with natural light. You can almost smell the sea air when the doors slide open. The terrace is not just big, it is huge. I stood out there and you can watch the curve of the Palm all the way down both sides. In the evenings, I could hear the faint sounds of the city behind me and sometimes you catch the scent of the garden flowers drifting up.

The master bedroom is off to the left of the main space. Sometimes in these places the bedrooms all feel the same but not here. This one has real character. There's a big dressing room where you can actually walk in and spread out, then the bathroom with both a separate tub and shower. It just feels easy. The balcony gives this lovely view straight over the water so if you are one of those people who loves to wake up and see the sea before coffee you will smile every morning.

Across the living area you get two more bedrooms and both have their own ensuite set up, so if you have family visiting or kids needing their own space no one has to share. There are a lot of moments in this home where you just notice the small things—doors that close softly, loads of wardrobe space, sunlight that slides in at just the right angle in the afternoon. The marble finishes are not flashy but they are there in all the right places and the fittings feel solid, which is often rare to find in Dubai.

The design here is inspired by Yemeni style, which means there are all these small touches. The arches and symmetry, the natural stone, it gives the whole building a grounded kind of feeling. Balqis Residence as a whole is part of the Kingdom of Sheba and you get a sense they have really thought about what makes a community feel good. Even just walking down the main entry you spot neighbors stopping to chat and on weekends it is common to see families heading for the pool or the beach. Kids often ride their bikes up and down the palm because the road on the crescent is quieter than most.

Living here is not just about the apartment. You get access to a full resort experience, so when you need, valet parking is right at the door. There is a spa planned and the restaurant and beach club are onsite, which honestly just makes it easy to grab a coffee or late night snack without having to plan anything. For anyone who likes an active vibe you have the full beach practically on your doorstep and from the terrace in the early morning sometimes the air feels a little cooler and you can actually hear birds out towards the breakwater.

Honestly, the only way to know if it feels right is to come and see it for yourself. If you have any questions or just want to walk around together for a bit, reach out anytime.
