Hello Daniela,

Welcome on board !

Please note that I have created this new thread on the Dubai forum from your post so that members can guide you.

In regards to accommodation feel free to have a look at the ads in the Housing in Dubai section. You can post your "looking for" ad in the same section to receive offers.

Also, find some tips in the Living in Dubai guide for expats.

All the best

For short-term rentals, try checking out Airbnb or local rental sites like Bayut or Property Finder.

Hi Daniela,

Welcome to the Dubai adventure! I’m sure you’ll love it here — it’s a big shift from London, but the vibe is amazing. For a short-term flat or room, I’d second LuisCavalho’s suggestions — Airbnb, Bayut, and Property Finder are great starting points. Another site you might find handy is NestFinder. I used it when I first moved here to scout out rentals, and the map feature helped me pin down places close to work. It’s good for finding options from private landlords too, which might be more flexible for a 1-2 month stay.

Since you’re moving in just a few weeks (exciting!), maybe post an ad in the Housing section here like Bhavna suggested — could speed things up. Good luck with the relocation — let us know how it goes!

I'd suggest checking out Dubizzle and Property Finder, they're pretty popular here. Also, Facebook groups like "Dubai º£½ÇÂÒÂ×s" or "Brits in Dubai" can be goldmines
