Some homes are built to stand out, and Reef 997 Residences on Dubai Islands is one of those places that makes you pause. The building feels bold but not loud, with clean lines and big stretches of glass that catch the sunlight and reflect the water around it. When you walk closer, you notice how the design is not just about looking modern but about making life feel easier, with terraces and winter gardens that can actually be used through every season.

Inside, the homes feel open and bright, whether you are in a one bedroom apartment or one of the duplexes or penthouses. The layouts are generous without being overwhelming, and the rooms carry that natural light through every corner. What struck me is how the winter gardens work almost like a second living room, where you can sit with a book or have friends over, and you are not worrying about the weather outside. It feels like indoor and outdoor living have finally been stitched together.

Step outside and you see how much attention has been given to community spaces. There is an infinity pool with spots where you can stretch out in shallow water, a children’s pool tucked nearby, and areas with cabanas that encourage you to just stay a while. The idea of cooled outdoor spaces really changes things, because it means the hammock forest, the outdoor cinema, and even the playgrounds are places you will use day after day, not just on the cooler months.

The best part is the setting. Dubai Islands gives you that sense of calm that comes with being near the sea, but at the same time you know the city is not far. Mornings can start with a walk by the beach, and evenings might be spent catching up with friends in the city without feeling like you live too far from it all. Honestly, Reef 997 has managed to make island living feel like a true extension of Dubai life.
