Catherine McEvoy, a 43-year-old events company owner, lives in a four-bedroom villa in the Dubai suburbs with her husband Ian, 51, their two daughters aged 14 and 10, a nanny, and four pets. They rent their villa for Dh200,000 per year in Layan, a Mediterranean-themed residential gated community in Dubailand. The family moved to the UAE 14 years ago and rented the same villa for 10 years before moving to their current home in Layan two years ago.
They chose the area because of the community's beautiful landscaping, convenient location near their children's school, and the fact that the villas offer ample space and excellent amenities. Catherine is passionate about sustainable shopping, and most of the furniture in their home is either new or second-hand. The villa includes a padel court, small football pitch, swimming pool, well-equipped gym, supermarket, and beauty spa.
The community also offers a small but well-stocked grocery store and several cafes, shops, and restaurants nearby. Catherine would like to see more restaurants or bars open for evening socializing. They plan to stay in the villa until they eventually leave Dubai, as they consider it to be an excellent value for money and a true home for their family.
