The area
Address
Neighbourhood: The Marina
It’s hard to believe that only a decade ago there was no marina. Opened in 2003, the man-made marina runs along a 3km stretch of shoreline. A heady mix of luxurious hotels, apartment buildings, and cafes, the marina hosts regular community events and markets, and is a wonderful place to while away an afternoon or evening. Spectacular at night when the skyscrapers glisten, here you can enjoy dinner on the beach next to the sea, or visit a high-rise bar in a hotel for a magnificent view across the Gulf and the man-made Palm Island, with the world-famous Atlantis Hotel at its end. The Walk at Jumeirah beach Residences is a pedestrianized stretch leading to a new development: The Beach. It’s one of the few places where Gulf nationals mix with tourists and Western ex-pats. It’s a popular place to show off your supercar for an evening, so watch out for Lamborghinis, Maseratis, and Ferraris in abundance.

    Lovely Mall in a lovely development
    This was the first mall we visited and first area of Dubai we saw on our first day. Having never been to Dubai before it set the standard very high as it was very clean and well maintained. All the popular shops were here along with many places to eat. Loved the outside balcony up on the food court area. Parking was free and hassle free.

    Shopping by the Marina
    This is a regular shopping mall at the side of the marina. It has eating places and three levels of shops. Many of the names are ones I recognised from the UK. The central area has a lovely ceiling display. Again, this is very well kept and cleaned.

    A very clean food court
    Thecleaning staff at the food court is OUTSTANDING! I have been coming to the mall for three years now. At first it was not so clean to sit in and had roaches. Now, this cleaning staff is top NOTCH. They are always cleaning, wiping, scrubbing, and picking trays, and controlling spills. I have never seen such a busy cleaning team working hard and smiling. They will talk to you nicely and always helpful. Dubai Mall you have a great cleaning team at the food court! Do not lose them because they will definately hard to replace.

    Marina mall , nice mall .
    nice mall with simple access to eateries and stores. an excellent valet parking service. Free valet parking requires a Mashreq card. The location is good; it's close to hotels, Bluewater Island, and JBR Walk. There are delicious Indian and Italian pizzerias there. The marina's yachting parking lot is in this mall.

    Great mall when you are a bit tired of wandering around 'the enormous malls'
    Discovered this mall by accident simply looking for a toilet! So glad that we did. This was a second trip to Dubai so we had already looked at the top 2 malls and didn't really look forward to visiting yet another- yet this mall is really quite decent. The food offering here is great and the size of the mall is comfortable to get around. So if you are a little 'fed up' with everything big and bigger- please give this mall a try.

    Thank you to the breakfast staff
    I would like to say a special thank you to the staff at the address hotel marina. I have been staying at at the address hotel for a month now. The breakfast buffet is amazing. The staff is very welcoming, attentive and friendly, especially Afsal, who serves me every morning. I can only recommend the service.

    Nearest mall if you're staying in the Dubai Marina area
    It's a very cozy and less crowded mall! We loved going back again and again at this place. It hosts most of the daily brands you use. There is a Waitrose store in the basement (right below the ground label). You can also pick up liquors from the African + Eastern outlet (2 floors below the ground label & at the parking exit). You can grab a taxi from the main entrance.

    Very big mall, with all the luxury brands on earth. Expensive too. But the music fountain and the sight of Burj Khalifa from the bay area is awesome. Also souk al bahar is a nice small mall with a great food court, timeout.

    Good Mall with Team Link
    This mall is located in a very nice area called Dubai Marina and is absolutely worth checking out. The mall could be a quick pit stop to cool off, pick up some snacks or try a nice restaurant in the area. It is less grand than other malls in Dubai but we were happy with the selection. We spent about an hour in the mall and a few hours in the area eating and walking around. We felt we lucked out with some cute Christmas decorations including camels with Santa hats at the Waitrose. The mall is connected to the tram line at Dubai Marina Mall station and is one stop away from metro line station DMCC.

A family friendly Mall
Jun 2023 • Couples
When I first started visiting this mall it was like my kind of a place as it used to be less crowded and congested as I usually like going to malls that are family friendly and less congested. But of late even this mall has become crowded and one should not visit it during the weekend. Shops, showrooms, restaurants are there as one can wander around either window shopping, or actual shopping or for amusement. The Dubai Marina Mall is packed with family-friendly activities and amusements.

Tiny shopping mall with some cafes
Nov 2023 • Friends
I stayed in an Air AnB nearby so came here twice. It is very small with limited shops especially compared to the other malls in Dubai, although they have lots of British stores in here like Body Shop, H&M, Waitrose, Boots, Mango, Aldo, Wagamama etc. I mostly came for the Daiso as it’s a great Japanese goods store and cheap too. The Sephora in here was closed which was disappointing, although there is a Mac shop for makeup. The rest are just usual designer shops like Hugo Boss etc. There are a few coffee shops and cafes to eat, a Starbucks and a food court although that is all junk food.
Overall a tiny mall near marina that you could spend maybe 2-3 hours.

Common mall
Oct 2023 • Solo
An ordinary mall. It does not stand out from the ordinary in anything, neither by size, nor by the interior arrangements. Just like in any mall, a lot of shops of all kinds, a fast-food area, a cinema, a playground for children.
Here you can also find a specialized store that sells alcohol (african+eastern is the name, pay attention, these stores are not clearly signposted in Dubai ).
There is also a Waitrose supermarket.

A medium-size mall.

This is a medium-size mall (in Dubai standards), which offers numerous shops and eateries.
You can also take a short evening stroll outside, next to the water.

Not the biggest but super clean and convenient
Oct 2023 • Business
Overall a great mall with everything you need. Very clean and very convenient right on the marina. The staff in general are all super friendly. Supermarket on ground floor and food court on top floor. Only criticism is that you have coffee shops that open at 6am which is great for jet lagged travelers but then the bathrooms on every floor are roped off for cleaning until 7am - at least on the days I went. Probably not a good combination!
