There seems to be quite a few of us, especially on this forum

Have to say I couldn't see myself living in the marina, but that's just down to personal taste - there are some lovely apartments and there is plenty to do, but that could be said of most of the areas you would be looking at! If you're doing lots of travelling around look for somewhere which has easy access to Sheik Zayed Road, which again doesn't narrow your choice down much.... This is why you need to have a look for yourself really.

Good luck!
