Short Term Rentals in Dubai

Furnished apartments for nightly, weekly, and monthly stays across Dubai. Move-in ready, bills included, and no long lease to sign.

Short term rentals fill the gap between a hotel and a twelve-month lease. You get a furnished apartment with utilities, WiFi, and cleaning already arranged, but without the commitment, deposit, and DEWA setup a standard Dubai tenancy demands.

This suits a lot of people: professionals on a project posting, families waiting for a permanent home or school placement, remote workers spending a season in the UAE, and anyone relocating who wants to know a neighbourhood before signing a year to it.

Arami VHR manages short term rentals across Downtown Dubai, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, and JVC. Stays run from a couple of nights to several months, and monthly rates are meaningfully lower than the nightly equivalent - tell us your dates and we will quote accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a short term rental in Dubai?

Any furnished stay shorter than a standard twelve-month tenancy, licensed under Dubai's holiday home regulations. In practice this covers nightly, weekly, and monthly stays.

How much is a short term rental in Dubai per month?

Monthly rates depend on area, unit size, and season, and are substantially lower than paying the nightly rate for the same period. Message us with your dates and we will send a monthly quote.

Do I need Ejari or a tenancy contract for a short term rental?

No. Short term rentals operate under a holiday home licence rather than a residential tenancy, so there is no Ejari registration, no security deposit cycle, and no DEWA account to open.

Are utilities and internet included in short term rentals?

Yes. Utilities, high-speed WiFi, and cleaning between stays are included in the rate for all Arami VHR properties.

Can I extend a short term rental in Dubai?

Usually yes, subject to availability. Let us know as early as you can and we will hold the property or move you to a comparable unit nearby.

Which areas of Dubai are best for short term rentals?

Downtown Dubai and Business Bay suit business travellers for their DIFC and metro access. JBR and Palm Jumeirah suit beach stays. JVC offers the most space per dirham for longer stays.
