The Polo Residence

The Polo Residence is a gated apartment community in Meydan, positioned directly adjacent to the Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. It targets buyers and renters who want proximity to Downtown Dubai without paying Downtown prices.

Location & connectivity

The community sits off Al Khail Road (E44), one of Dubai's primary arterial routes. Downtown Dubai and DIFC are roughly a 10-minute drive, and Dubai International Airport is around 20 minutes. There is no metro station within walking distance — residents rely on personal vehicles or ride-hailing services.

A Carrefour hypermarket is accessible within 10–15 minutes at several surrounding districts.

Things to consider

The community is car-dependent — the absence of metro access means daily errands require driving or ride-hailing. Retail and dining options within immediate walking distance are limited compared to more established urban districts.
