One such ground breaking example is the Ski Dubai, 400 metre indoor ski slope constructed at a cost of 272 million US dollars. The artificial ski slope holds over 6000 tonnes of artificial snow which is made through revolutionary methods. Due to the amount of sunshine, Dubai is becoming a centre for sports. Dubai Sports City is growing by the day with high profile developments within it such an Ernie Els designed golf championship golf course called,"The Els Club”. Launched in January 2008, the course was opened by the creator and golfer himself, Ernie Els, ranked 5th in the world and the former Open and US Open champion. "The Els Club" was the first completed venue at Dubai Sports City and also the first in The Els Club brand in the world. This course has then led to residential developments being built with the focus on golf with many properties having views of the golf course.
Further major sports choosing Dubai for large tournaments if Cricket. The ICC will be moving their headquarters to Dubai with planned projects such as a global cricket academy at an expected cost of 25 million US dollars.
All these high profile sports and subsequent sports and related people are then creating an even more cosmopolitan community and not just at Dubai Sports City. With the diverse range of Dubai property on offer, it is not just celebrities or the rich that are purchasing Dubai properties. Of course, the land mark towers such as the very highly anticipated revolving tower, will be of top most exclusivity but there is so much more to offer in Dubai. For example, many very well equipped apartment at Dubai Sports City, such as Eagle Heights and the Elite Sports Residence collection are beyond comprehension for most people compared with the investment property in the UK.
Buying off-plan in Dubai property couldn’t be easier which is another plus point for the consumer. The discounts available are hard to say no too with many being sold in a matter of days. The downward turn in the property markets in the UK and USA looks not to have made any difference to the market in Dubai.
