Ratings and Reviews

Rutvik Gala
Close communities in the residential areas

Regarding Al Muneera, the people are warm and welcoming. It is impossible to remember who you just met and have known for a long time. The only thing I found missing is there are no places of worship.

Amisha S
Quiet livelihood

I recently shifted to Al Muneera from Abu Dhabi to escape the racing city life. Most villas available for sale or rent here are detached from one another. This offers privacy and a chance to spend quality time with the family.

Simran Seikh
Family residency options

Since childhood, we have stayed together. As we shifted from our native place, finding a place in Abu Dhabi that could fit my entire family easily was becoming difficult. This soon became a reason for worry. Just then, we discovered the huge and spacious villas of Al Muneera.

Tonya Shevchenko
Holistic approach to life

I loved this place. Unlike my hometown, where people hated travelling by foot, walking is the main source of transport here. Over the past few months since I have been here, I have discovered the 5 most beautiful routes to my workplace that I travel daily.

Shefali Sharma
Lack of public transportation

The area is absolutely beautiful but it lacks public transportation. There is no metro and buses that run through the area. Most bus stops are faraway. I always have to book cabs via Uber or Careem which falls expensive.
