This is an older, more established area, quite beautiful in places and even peaceful once you get off the beaten track that is Jumeirah Beach Road. It is home to expatriates and Emiratis living side by side on well-maintained streets. The regular call to prayer is part of the Arabic ambiance and a daily reminder that you're living in the Middle East.
The properties in Umm Suqeim are almost all ‘free standing’ villas, in other words not in gated communities or compounds. They range in size from small one bedroom houses to larger five or six bedroom villas. Since there is no space for further development properties tend to be rented quickly in this popular beachside district.
The houses and villas on one side of the beach road are as close as you can get to the beach in Dubai, while on the other they’re as green as you can get in Dubai, with well established gardens and green parks.
Properties in Umm Suqeim may only be sold to GCC citizens, so renting is the only option for expats.
Facilities and Amenities
For those who live in Umm Suqeim the attraction seems to be the way of life and because the place is so centrally situated driving to other parts of the Emirate is a breeze.

Many people walk, jog and cycle around the Umm Suqeim neighbourhood and down to the beach. Alternatively, if you have money to burn the nearby Madinat Jumeirah and Jumeirah Beach hotels have up market gym and beach club facilities where you can shed the weight from your wallets.
Burj Al Arab is nearby but you must have a room or restaurant reservation to get in, while Wild Wadi Water Park will let you in any time for AED 275.
