2 Bedroom Apartment in Meydan Avenue, Meydan

Some places just make you slow down when you step in. That happened to me with this two bedroom apartment at The Galleries over at Meydan Avenue. It is tucked away in a spot that is actually as close to the heart of Dubai as you can get without all the city noise. When you come in, what really gets you is how open everything feels. I stood in the lounge for a bit and you get so much sunlight coming in through those floor to ceiling windows, you almost wonder if you should keep your sunglasses handy. You will probably notice that right away.

The living and dining area probably stand out next. They kind of flow together, but not in a show home way more like how real life can spill into one another without bumping elbows. There is this easy sense that you could watch a movie with friends or have everyone over for Friday breakfast and nobody would feel cramped at all. I found myself just drifting over to the balcony because, well, you have two, both with pretty relaxing views over the pool. There is something calming about just leaning on the railing and listening, even if the city is only a few minutes away.

The kitchen surprised me, honestly. A lot of the time these modern kitchens look polished but do not feel like you would use them day to day. Here you have Ariston appliances that actually look ready for a real meal, plus a breakfast bar that works for a morning coffee or a quick chat. You can imagine dropping your groceries on the counter and actually not struggling for space. It sort of feels like you could finally try making that recipe you saved ages ago.

Both bedrooms have their own private spaces at opposite ends of the apartment and that is a detail you really notice if you have guests or a flatmate or just want some genuine peace. Each one comes with its own en suite bathroom so there is no awkward sharing in the morning. I stopped in both rooms and just looked out at the sunlight for a bit. The windows are big so every space feels bright and even in the afternoon you can catch the city light. If you care about keeping things a bit separate or you want a guest to have their own spot this layout just works.

The extra room sort of tucked away can be a maid's room if you need that but honestly, I think it could be a really great little study or just a quiet place for when you need a break. That is the kind of thing that is hard to spot in photos but you notice when you are actually inside. With a powder room for guests it is easy having people over without worrying about privacy.

Living in Meydan Avenue means you are never far from the action. Sometimes I take a slow drive past Meydan Racecourse just to see the horses out early. Plus the horse racing museum and that five star hotel are real options for a weekend afternoon or when family visits. People like to golf here too so if you are after green views and a genuinely lively community, this is one of the best places in Dubai for it. Downtown Dubai is so close that you can meet friends there in minutes but two streets away it gets quiet enough that you forget just how central you are. The Dubai Water Canal adds its own flavor and you start to feel the options pull you outside more often.

You will also notice the whole Galleries building sort of feels like a secret. It is well looked after, quiet, but not empty. Families, singles, even young couples. Now and then you see people walking small dogs in the evenings. The coffee shop is just around the corner and groceries are close by. Nothing feels far.

The only way to really know if this is the right move is to come and see it for yourself. If you want to walk through or just chat about what would work for your life, just reach out any time.
