In short:<\/b> Emirates Hills is known as the “Beverly Hills of Dubai”. Around a golf course stand large, often individually built estates on spacious plots \u2013 just a few minutes from Dubai Marina and JLT. The district is one of the most exclusive in the city; supply is small and prices match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Location and access<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Emirates Hills lies on the inland side of Sheikh Zayed Road, directly behind JLT<\/a>. Dubai Marina<\/a> and the beach at JBR<\/a> are a few minutes away, Downtown<\/a> about 25 minutes. Around it lie the Emaar communities The Springs, The Meadows and The Lakes<\/a> and Jumeirah Islands<\/a>. The Internet City and Media City free zones are minutes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How Emirates Hills came about<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Emaar developed Emirates Hills in the early 2000s as the most exclusive part of its “Emirates Living” master plan. Unlike most communities, mainly plots were sold here, on which buyers had their own villas designed and built. That’s why hardly any two houses in Emirates Hills look alike: from classic country houses to modern glass villas, everything is here. At the heart of the district lies a championship golf course with lakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
