3 Bedroom Penthouse in Volante, Business Bay

There are homes in Dubai that really do make you pause right at the front door. This three bedroom penthouse at Volante in Business Bay is one of them. I just took a moment on the threshold and something about the way sunlight spills across the polished travertine floors makes it feel a bit like some quiet retreat even though you are honestly in one of the city's busiest spots.

Volante itself is not just any tower. You see the top part of it catching the morning light when you drive along the canal, almost glowing by the water. There are thirty five floors here but the way it sits a little away from other buildings it always feels private and calm. I have met a few residents and the first thing I notice every time is that relaxed look that people get when they really enjoy where they are living. This particular penthouse is on a half floor so you never have that boxed in feeling. You get about five thousand square feet to just stretch out and breathe. Sometimes, when you step into the main living space, you do end up just staring out the windows for a bit. The Burj Khalifa and Dubai Canal both fill up the view like something out of a movie. It is not something you get used to, honestly.

The principal living area opens up to a terrace with these sliding glass doors that just seem to disappear whenever you want to let the outside in. The air feels different out there—there is always a bit of a breeze most afternoons—and the terrace is big enough to invite your friends over for dinner, or just to sit quietly with a cup of coffee and watch the city breathe. You can actually hear the faint sound of water below, which is rare in a place like Business Bay.

Walking around, you will see two proper bedrooms with their own bathrooms finished in Italian travertine marble. There is just something about the shade of that stone and the way it is cool under your feet right after you step out of the shower. The master bedroom has its own views as well and sometimes in the early morning, you catch the sun coming up right behind the Burj. I do not know if it is something everyone notices, but the closets actually feel like they fit a real person's life. Not just a show home, but somewhere you could hang your winter coats and find them the next year.

The kitchens here are a bit of a surprise. You get two of them, which I never really understood until I spent some time talking to other residents. There is a stylish one that feels just right if you are having friends over or just want to lay out appetizers and a bottle of something cold. Then there is a real workhorse of a kitchen at the back for serious cooking. It smells like someone has actually baked in there, which does not happen in every penthouse I see.

A few steps down the corridor and you notice that the amenities at Volante are not just an afterthought. The private club has a gym that gets actual sunlight. There is a cinema room where you could honestly lose hours on a rainy day and the infinity pool has this view right out over the canal. Sometimes you spot residents and their guests just quietly enjoying the lounge while the chef whips up something. It all feels easy, not forced.

The neighbourhood itself is just close enough to Downtown Dubai that a quick ride gets you to Dubai Mall or one of those small, local coffee spots hiding on a corner. In the evenings, you sometimes find people taking walks by the water or heading out on bikes. Business Bay has this mix of energy and calm. It is nice when you want city life but also those moments where you are just sitting and watching life happen all around you.

Honestly the only way to know if this penthouse is your next home is to come see it and stand on that terrace for yourself.
