3 bedroom apartment in Emaar Beachfront, Dubai Harbour

Sometimes you walk into a home and the light just feels different. There is a kind of quiet energy to this three bedroom apartment at Sunrise Bay Tower 2, Emaar Beachfront. As soon as I stepped inside I had to slow down and just stand by the glass, watching the water for a bit. Emaar Beachfront does that to people, honestly. The water is right there and it's blue in a way that is hard to explain if you have not seen it yourself. This particular place sits in Dubai Harbour, between the Palm and JBR, so you get that sense you are almost on your own island, even though all of Dubai is just a few minutes away.

The first thing you might notice is just how open everything feels. The living and dining blend together in this way where the lines kind of melt away. Sometimes you almost forget you are inside, especially when you open the wide balcony doors. The windows here go floor to ceiling and the views are not just of the ocean but also across to the Dubai Marina skyline. It is easy to get distracted just glancing out every few minutes.

The kitchen actually feels like the sort of space you might want to cook a real meal in, not just heat up leftovers or make some coffee in a rush. Built in appliances are all there, sharp and modern. Even though things are sleek and contemporary it still has that inviting feel. There's plenty of working space so if you enjoy inviting over a friend or two for dinner, you have room to spread out.

Bedrooms here are comfortable without trying too hard. Each has its own rhythm. There is plenty of wardrobe storage so you will not be trying to cram everything into a small spot. All three bedrooms benefit from that dramatic natural light that washes in from the coast. The master has a kind of private calm. I stood in there and noticed you do not really hear much—just a little distant sound of the ocean some days or the wind on the glass.

Bathrooms have a soft spa style. You have those details that make it feel elevated without being cold. The rain shower is actually big enough for a proper long soak. Sometimes you want to just take your time in there.

One of the best parts about this Emaar Beachfront apartment is that you are high up but still feel connected to everything down below. There is a multi level podium with an infinity pool, which is honestly one of the spots you could just take in views and forget to check your phone for a while. Landscaped terraces bring a bit of green into your day. On weekends you see families using the pool and people sitting outside at the little cafes or restaurants that will open up here. There are also shops nearby. So you are never far from a coffee in the morning or a spot to pick up dinner if you do not want to cook.

This part of Dubai Harbour is special. With the marina on one side and the beach stretching out, it is a mix of activity and peace. You are close to the new Dubai Lighthouse, which when finished will be a pretty famous landmark and a fun place to take visitors. Sometimes you see the cruise ships coming in which adds that worldly, resort vibe. Kids bike around in the evenings. Neighbours wave at each other. It is not just glass and steel there is some real feeling here.

Honestly you need to walk through the space to get a sense of it. The view alone is easy to fall for but it is how the rooms feel, the way the light moves, that makes a difference.
