Madinat Jumeirah Living (MJL) is an eminent freehold residential community in Dubai, developed by Meraas (a subsidiary of Dubai Holding). Demand remains consistently strong for its prime location directly opposite the iconic Burj Al Arab and its traditional "Arabesque" architectural style.





The master plan for Madinat Jumeirah Living is designed as a peaceful, car-free village. Instead of busy roads, the ground level is filled with shaded walking paths, gardens, and "wadis" (small valleys) that connect all the buildings. To keep it quiet and safe, all the cars go straight into an underground basement the moment they enter the community, so you can walk around without worrying about traffic. The buildings are built in clusters around central parks, and a special air-conditioned bridge lets you walk directly into the Souk Madinat Jumeirah and the beach in just a few minutes.
Residences at Madinat Jumeirah Living are divided into the following categories:
Madinat Jumeirah Living is exclusively an apartment and penthouse community; there are no villas or townhouses. It offers 1 to 4-bedroom units featuring private balconies and underground parking. Larger apartments typically include a maid's room, while top-floor penthouses provide expansive terraces with iconic Burj Al Arab views.
