The community is peaceful, and the neighbors are lovely. The building is exceptionally well maintained, with a dedicated team that ensures everything is always clean and in excellent condition. A special thank you to all the staff, and especially to Sohail at the reception, who was always kind, professional, and quick to respond to any request. The onl…”

From Google Reviewers

Each card is a real, public Google review of this residence, sorted into our ten questions – answered only where the reviewer said something, and marked “Not answered” where they didn’t. Reviews written in other languages are shown in English and labelled. These come from Google, not from verified residents, so they count for only a small part of the HT Score, never as much as a real resident review.

The only areas that could be improved are the frequency of the fire alarm activations, which can sometimes be disruptive, and the sound insulation between apartments, as noise from neighboring units can occasionally be heard.”

“Receiving a fine of 1,050 AED for cooking a steak (without smoke, just because the detection system in this building is ridiculous). It’s unjustified as security saw everything was working. It's the only building in the community that automatically reports to Sobha Management even if there's nothing wrong... (Security made it clear that this was due to Google reviews). The alarm goes off several times a day, but apparently cooking a steak is a high risk. If you like to cook, choose another building…”

“Great building, exceptional quality. Gym is very big, and pool is also nice. Can’t wait for the lagoon to be built. Only downside is there is a lot of air bnbs- and short term rentals, but I think they slowly leaving as community builds up.”
