Properties for Rent in Al Majaz

Al Majaz is located along the Khalid Lagoon in the heart of Sharjah, roughly 25 to 40 minutes from Dubai via Al Ittihad Road.

It is one of the few communities in the emirate where you get a proper waterfront property, access to reputable schools, and rents that are still within reach for most households.

Studios in Al Majaz start from AED 20,000 per year, 1-bedroom apartments from AED 30,000, and 2-bedroom units from AED 45,000, noticeably below comparable waterfront properties in Dubai.

Schools including private Indian, Pakistani, and British curriculum institutions are within a 10 to 15-minute drive. Sahara Centre and City Centre Sharjah are both reachable in under 20 minutes.

For families and working professionals who want quality of life without overextending on rent, Al Majaz delivers just that.

The community is divided into three sub-areas. Al Majaz 1 borders the lagoon most closely and carries the highest rents.

Al Majaz 2 sits slightly inland but remains within easy walking distance of the waterfront. Al Majaz 3 is the furthest from the lagoon and the most competitively priced of the three, making it the default choice for tenants where the view is secondary to value.
