Dh110,000

Annual rent for a two-bedroom apartment on Reem Island, Abu Dhabi

Features The apartment comes unfurnished, measures 1,150 square feet and is located in Al Maha Tower. Both bedrooms are en suite.

Pros A good sized balcony offers views of the canal and the Abu Dhabi skyline. Residents have access to an on-site gym and swimming pools. There is a supermarket already open in the wider development, with more retail outlets in the offing. Rent can be paid in three cheques.

Cons There is still long-term construction underway on Reem Island, so you'll have to contend with dust and noise for the foreseeable future.

They say One of the best deals on the market.

We say This is a reasonably good deal in a well-designed building. There is construction work going on in the immediate vicinity and a large stretch of undeveloped desert on your doorstep, but that's not unusual for the UAE.
