Jumeirah Golf Estates
Home of the DP World Tour Championship, where 16 gated clusters of villas and townhouses wrap around two championship golf courses.
About the District
Jumeirah Golf Estates is a freehold community built around two 18-hole championship courses — Earth, in Mediterranean style, and Fire, desert-themed — with a metro station on the Red Line at its edge. Sixteen gated clusters hold roughly 1,044 homes: 606 villas around the Earth Course and 438 around the Fire Course, in Mediterranean and desert-inspired architecture with private gardens. Sub-communities include Alandalus, Hillside, Whispering Pines, Lime Tree Valley, Redwood Avenue and Jumeirah Luxury, with three- to six-bedroom villas, apartments and townhouses.
Two Championship Golf Courses
The Earth and Fire courses each carry 18 championship holes, with the Earth Course hosting the DP World Tour Championship every season.
European Tour Performance Institute
The community holds the Middle East's only European Tour Performance Institute, alongside the JGE Golf Academy, country club and tennis centre.
Metro Station on the Red Line
Jumeirah Golf Estates has its own Red Line station, a rare advantage for a low-density villa community this far from the city centre.
