About The Villa (Al Khawaneej area)
A gated villa community in Dubai's Al Khawaneej corridor, built around a private golf course and offering large-plot family homes away from the city's density.
The Villa is a low-density, gated residential community developed by Dubai Properties, located in the Al Khawaneej area of eastern Dubai. It is built around The Els Club golf course and offers exclusively villa and townhouse living on generous plot sizes.
Location & connectivity
The community sits off Emirates Road (E611), giving direct access to Al Ain Road (E66) and the broader eastern Dubai highway network. Downtown Dubai and DIFC are roughly a 25–30 min drive, and Dubai International Airport is approximately 20 min away. There is no metro access nearby; residents are fully car-dependent.
