Overview

About The Springs

The Springs is a gated villa community within Emaar‘s Emirates Living master development. It is located between Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) and Al Khail Road (E44). Launched in the early 2000s, The Springs Dubai master plan spans 15 sub-communities and is home to over 4,800 semi-detached and terraced villas, each depicting the area’s signature sandy-hued architecture.

Living in The Springs means near-universal access to a private pool and garden; almost every villa features both amenities. The Springs Dubai villas span 2 to 4-bedroom layouts, giving families a range of sizes within the same established setting. Each of the 15 sub-communities carries shared swimming pools, BBQ and picnic areas, children’s play parks and mini basketball and tennis courts besides individual villa amenities.

The Springs Souk sits at the community’s retail heart, housing Carrefour Market, Reel Cinemas and Dig It, an indoor play zone for children, alongside beauty salons and restaurants. Nearby City Centre Me’aisem adds a larger shopping option for residents looking for more options.

Residents also benefit from proximity to Dubai Media City and Dubai Marina. Whereas Al Khail Road connects The Springs to Dubai Hills Estate and Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC).
