1 Bedroom Apartment in Rimal, Jumeirah Beach Residence

Sometimes, you walk into a place and it just feels like somewhere you might want to stay a while. That was the first thing I thought when I stepped into this one bedroom apartment at Rimal in Jumeirah Beach Residence. There is something about the way the sunlight pours in and bounces off the floors. Makes it feel bright even on one of those rare cloudy Dubai days. The space is actually bigger than you first expect. I see a lot of one bedroom apartments and sometimes they can feel a bit boxed in, but here, even without furniture, you have room to breathe and move easily from room to room. You kind of notice it more when a flat is empty, how it lets you picture your own style or just feel out the vibe without all the noise of someone else's life.

There is a balcony that you can open the door to in the morning and stand with a coffee while you just watch the pool below or maybe catch the beginnings of the day. I ended up leaning there a while because you can actually hear the gentle sounds of the community waking up. It is not just a balcony for show, it feels private enough that you would probably use it a lot, which is not always the case in tall buildings. And the community pool, it is right below, with people dipping in and out or just relaxing. It never feels loud or busy from up here, just a little bit connected and peaceful at the same time.

The kitchen is laid out in a way that would make you want to cook something, not just heat up takeaway. There is a sense of light and space to it. And one nice detail you get in Rimal is the little powder room by the entrance for when you have a friend over and nobody needs to queue for the bathroom. The main bathroom comes off the bedroom, so it feels almost like your own private retreat at the end of the day. Nothing too fancy or over the top, just useful and well done.

One thing I appreciate about this place is that you get your own parking spot. Not everyone thinks about that at first, but truthfully, parking in Jumeirah Beach Residence can be a puzzle, so having that sorted is a relief. You get access cards to everything, so you just come and go. Life just feels a bit easier when you do not have to worry about little things like that.

Something else you'll notice is that it only takes maybe two minutes to wander down and have your toes in the sand. If you are a morning person, you can actually go for a sunrise walk on the beach before work. Or have a swim after. The beach at Jumeirah Beach Residence has that real community vibe, with runners and families and sometimes you see kids just riding their bikes along the path in the evening. Plus, coffee is never far. Honestly, I have a favourite spot not far from Rimal where they remember your usual after a few visits.

Rimal itself is built for living. Not just for looking fancy. The building has everything you need. There is always a gym, but this one feels well cared for, and there is a play area where you can sometimes hear the sound of kids laughing from up above. The supermarket is so close, and if you are in the mood for a movie, the cinema is just around the corner. You can walk everywhere and sometimes you forget your car even exists. The shops nearby are not just the big chains either. There are a few small local spots that add a bit of charm.

Connectivity is easy, whether it is public transport like the tram or bus, or even just hopping on a scooter to Marina Mall. Living here, you do not have to plan your whole day around traffic or distance. Things just work and you feel like you are close to everything but still have your own privacy and space.

Honestly, some apartments can feel a little generic after you see enough of them. This one, I kept thinking, I'd probably linger here. It is got the comforts, it is got the light, and even empty, it feels like home is not so far away. The only way to really know is to come have a look yourself.
