HELP! - Looking for accommodation in Dubai
Hi Everyone
Just got to Dubai a couple of days ago, in a hotel through work at the moment but looking for accommodation.
Would ideally LOVE to be in the Beach areas or otherwise maybe the Springs. Short-term would be ideal until I know the place better. Budget of max. 11k a month. Also open to sharing though my boyfriend would be over from the UK now and then so that would need to be ok with flatmates.
If anyone knows of anything could you let me know - my head is already spinning from looking at the various websites
Many Thanks
PS Thanks to everyone that puts info on this forum, you have got me this far!!

Have you looked on dubizzle www.dubizzle.com or on the noticeboards of supermarkets in the areas where you'd like to live?
Good luck.

Re: HELP! - Looking for accommodation in Dubai
with you budget you can get a 1 bed apartment in the Marina or JBR.
Many people have a go at JBR and it is pretty ugly from the outside. but you can get great views, the apartments are decent sizes and the place is right on the beach.

Re: HELP! - Looking for accommodation in Dubai
Thats interesting!!!
Problem with Dubizzle is that you very very rarely get any pictures....same with Expatriates.
You'll defo get a one bedder on Marina for 11k a month. Saw a big 3 bed room share offered at either 5k for the small room or 8k for the master room.
Don't know why I'm looking mind....not even found an employer yet..
