2 Bedroom Apartment in Volante, Business Bay

Some places you walk into and just know right away they are different. That was the feeling I got when I stepped inside this two bedroom apartment in Volante right on the Dubai Canal in Business Bay. It was late afternoon when I visited so the light was kind of golden and just poured through those huge floor to ceiling windows. You get that really rare mix where you are in the heart of Dubai with the city right there laid out in front of your window but inside it's actually kind of calm. It is more than five thousand square feet so you can imagine the rooms just stretch out and you never feel boxed in.

The main living area feels good for gatherings but honestly even if you are just curled up alone with a coffee you will want to stay longer. I found myself wandering over to the windows every few minutes because you can just see so much from up here. You get all the water going by plus that famous Downtown Dubai skyline with the Burj Khalifa smack in the middle. I even spotted a few boats slowly drifting along and for a few minutes the whole city kind of goes quiet except for the distant sound of traffic and water moving past.

The finishes here are something else. They used all these natural touches like real Jordanian limestone and warm Zebrano wood so it looks impressive but still feels inviting. The marble is from Italy which you notice when the light hits the bathroom and the kitchens just right. Actually there are two kitchens which is something I do not see much and they both feel like places meant for real cooking. One has everything wide open to the living space and the other one is tucked away so you can keep the noise and mess out of sight when you have people over. If you like trying different recipes or cooking with friends you will probably use both. The bedrooms each have their own bathroom which honestly just makes life easier if you have guests over or are sharing. When I sat in one of the bedrooms for a bit with the window half open you could hear a little bit of breeze coming from the canal and it felt surprisingly peaceful for such a central spot.

One thing you will notice here is the technology touches. You can sort out the lighting and air and even security with just a few clicks. But nothing feels showy. It is there if you want to use it otherwise you do not have to think about it. The building itself has a bunch of things that make daily life a little smoother. The lounge feels like the sort of place where neighbors actually chat a bit. The fitness center has big windows so you are not staring at a wall when you work out. There is a café that is just downstairs and when I walked by they were playing soft music and a few people were catching up over pastries. The spa and outdoor pool are honestly just nice to have for lazy weekends plus there is a private cinema room which would be great for movie nights.

When you step outside you are right on the canal boardwalk which has shops and restaurants. You catch families out for a walk or joggers early in the morning. Downtown Dubai with all the restaurants and The Dubai Mall is only a quick drive or even a walk for the more enthusiastic. Getting around Business Bay is very easy since there are taxis everywhere and the metro is never far. Sometimes I forget how close you are to the city action until you notice people heading to the Opera or going out for dinner just up the road.

Volante Tower has a bit of a reputation for being one of the most refined places in Business Bay and now I kind of get why. The whole experience just feels smooth. Whether you are looking for a proper home base in Dubai or maybe a second home that feels more like a sanctuary than a rental this apartment would cover it.

But honestly the only way to know if it feels right is to come walk through and experience it for yourself. If there is anything you want to know or if you just want to look around and see how the space feels in person reach out any time. We want to make your next move feel just a little easier.
