Jumeirah Beach Residence

Beachfront apartments on The Walk

Community guide

Jumeirah Beach Residence, or JBR, is a waterfront community of apartment and penthouse towers set along a lively public beach and promenade, prized for beachfront living, strong lifestyle amenities and high short stay rental demand.

Jumeirah Beach Residence, known as JBR, is one of Dubai's best loved beachfront addresses. A run of residential towers lines a wide public beach and two popular promenades, The Walk and The Beach, where restaurants, cafes and shops open straight onto the sand. Homes are mostly one to four bedroom apartments, with penthouses on the upper floors enjoying open sea views towards Bluewaters Island and the Ain Dubai wheel. The combination of beach, dining and a central Marina location gives JBR year round energy and consistently strong demand from both residents and holiday visitors, which makes it a favourite for lifestyle buyers and short stay investors alike.
