Dubai Forums Dubai Expat Forums Accommodation in Dubai

Hi there,

I'm possibly looking to relocate to Dubai shortly. I've been looking around forums and ad websites regarding rents.

The wide range of prices I see is a bit confusing. I would be moving on my own.

I've seen rents for studios for around 50-60k p.a. in Discovery gardens that looked pretty decent. And other studios for over 90k in higher scale buildings (?). I've also seen places that mention 120k p.a. for a one bedroom apartment. Is the gap between studios and 1 bdr apartments normally that wide?

BTW are Discovery Gardens, or the Greens good areas to live in? Although I am not looking for luxury, I do require a minimum level of comfort.

Thanks for the help!
