2 bedroom apartment in Emaar Beachfront, Dubai Harbour

Some homes just have that light sunny feeling right away and honestly this two bedroom apartment at Sunrise Bay in Emaar Beachfront feels like a little escape just above the water. I remember stepping in and noticing how bright it stays through the day. You stand in the living room and the views really do stop you for a second. You get this full sweep over Dubai Harbour and out to the Arabian Sea. The wraparound balcony is where you might want your first coffee or a quiet moment after work. Even in the evenings the city lights from the balcony are something else. You can hear the low hum of the Marina, always there but never too loud.

This apartment is a corner unit which means you get extra windows, so there is always a breeze and sun trails across the floor in the afternoon. I even watched a few birds glide right outside while I looked over the balcony edge, kind of makes you pause. The kitchen is all ready for real cooking, not just for putting something quickly in the microwave. Built in appliances help it feel like somewhere you would actually want to slice up fruit or linger and talk while cooking, especially with that view. Everything feels high quality which is something you notice more after a few minutes, not just the first glance.

Bedrooms here feel like a gentle spot to unwind. Light filters in but you can enjoy quiet, no echoes or city noise sneaking in. There is space for good sized beds and even a spot by the window that would make a nice reading corner if you ask me. Storage is kind of hidden but actually there so it still feels open and not full of cupboards. Bathrooms are fresh and practical with clean fittings and honestly easy to keep tidy.

The best thing is you can walk right down and step out onto a residents only beach. There is something grounding about swimming in the morning before the city wakes up or even just wandering by the water when you want to clear your head. The infinity pool is just next to the beach and looks over the private stretch so you get the view even on the sun loungers. Gym here is not tucked away. It actually brings in some of that light. There is a safe play area for kids where you sometimes see families just hanging out in the afternoon. Downstairs you also get a multi function room which can be booked for gatherings for when friends visit or you just want a bigger table for a celebration. Everything you actually need seems to be just downstairs without ever feeling busy.

Emaar Beachfront is one of those places where you might find yourself walking more. The coffee shop is never far and sometimes in the evening there is a bit of a breeze off the water. You are close to the Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina but it feels a little calmer on this stretch. Commuting is simple. Just five to ten minutes to the big landmarks depending on where you are headed and I noticed that even midday traffic is pretty manageable here.

People always ask about the community. Honestly it feels safe and there are always a few neighbours out walking or just chatting in the lobby. Quality matters here and you really feel it. No corners cut. Plus being developed by EMAAR you know maintenance is sorted and help is never far which makes living here actually easy.

The truth is, photos and words help but you only really know if it feels right once you step inside yourself.
