Jumeirah

Jumeirah (Arabic: جميرا‎) literally means "beautiful." It is a coastal residential area in Dubai, United Arab Emirates mainly comprising low rise private dwellings. It is administratively divided into three neighborhoods titled "Jumeirah 1," Jumeirah 2" and "Jumeirah 3." It has both expensive and large detached properties as well as more modest town houses built in a variety of architectural styles. The area is popular with expatriates working in the emirate and is familiar to many tourists visiting Dubai.

Jumeirah is an international luxury hotel chain and part of Dubai Holding, which is owned by the Dubai Government. It is named after Jumeirah.
