Al Barsha has a sophisticated metropolitan vibe that fits the lifestyle of Dubai. It is a self-contained community with a range of residential properties, restaurants, hotels, malls, schools, and hospitals. 

The community is easily accessible for daily commutes as it is located between Al Khail Road and Sheikh Zayed Road. The area is well-known as a home for ex-pat communities. From a vast sandy area, it has transformed into a major commercial and residential hub with affordable housing.
