About Za'abeel
Za'abeel is a central Dubai community of about 10 square kilometres, made up of two sub-communities. Za'abeel 2 sits directly east of Business Bay, while Za'abeel 1 borders Al Nasr, with Oud Metha Road and 2nd Zabeel Road marking its southern edge. The district takes in Zabeel Palace, the official residence of Dubai's ruling Al Maktoum family, Za'abeel Stadium, and the large public park that shares the area's name. Much of the established housing is made up of villas and townhouses, and newer towers are now adding apartments to the mix. Za'abeel suits buyers who want a central home within easy reach of Business Bay and the Dubai World Trade Centre district, with a large public park on the doorstep.
Getting around Za'abeel is mainly a matter of the big roads that frame it. Sheikh Zayed Road cuts through the southern part of Zabeel Park, Sheikh Rashid Road runs along the park's northern side and Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Road along its north-west, while Oud Metha Road and 2nd Zabeel Road line the southern edge of Za'abeel 1. For the Metro, Al Jafiliya station on the Red Line is the stop used for Zabeel Park. Everyday services are spread through the surrounding districts. Latifa Hospital is about 2 km away. For younger children, Willow Children's Nursery at One Central and Maple Bear Nursery Wasl 1 are each about 3 km away.
