Al Diyafah Residences is a district of Dubai, 2.1 km from World Trade Centre Metro Station.
Al Diyafah Residences is a residential subcommunity in the Al Satwa area of Dubai. The development is positioned close to central Dubai and targets people seeking immediate access to the city core while remaining within an established urban neighbourhood. The scheme was announced by Wasl as ready for leasing and includes a mix of apartment and townhouse units together with street-level retail.
Al Diyafah Residences sits inside Al Satwa, one of the inner-city districts west of Downtown Dubai. The coordinates for the development are 25.239649°N, 55.271392°E. The project addresses urban living rather than resort-style waterfront living: it offers residential apartments and townhouses with a limited number of retail outlets on site. According to the project announcement, the completed scheme comprises 126 apartments, 40 townhouses and four retail shops. The developer publicly associated with this announcement is Wasl.
Public transport: the nearest Dubai Metro station on the Red Line is identified as code R22, at an approximate straight-line distance of 2,144 metres from the site. That distance places the station beyond a short walking range for most residents, so journeys to the metro will usually require a short drive, taxi, bike or bus connection.
Road distances and typical drive times reported around the development include both kilometre distances and approximate driving minutes to major Dubai points. From Al Diyafah Residences:
For daily commuting this location is convenient for access to Downtown Dubai, DIFC and DXB. Travel times will depend on time of day and chosen route; the site benefits from proximity to central business districts while not being positioned directly on a metro station.
Project details announced by the developer specify a completed residential scheme prepared for leasing: 126 apartments and 40 townhouses together with four retail units. The development is presented as a mixed residential block with limited commercial frontage at street level. The developer named in the announcement is Wasl.

The immediate neighbourhood in Al Satwa combines residential streets, local shops and community services typical of an inner-city district. The project description references nearby schools and specialist centres by name: Dubai Autism Center is reported at approximately 0.8 km from the development and Ambassador School at about 1.8 km. These named institutions sit within the local catchment and can be reached quickly by short car or taxi ride.
Retail provision within the development itself is limited to the four retail shops noted in the project announcement; wider shopping, leisure and dining options are available a short drive away in Downtown, DIFC and along Sheikh Zayed Road.
Accessing the development by car is straightforward from central arterial roads. The nearest metro station is on the Red Line (R22) at roughly 2.1 km; plan for a short feeder trip when using the metro. Airport access to DXB is short by car and popular for occupiers who travel frequently. Local schools and specialist centres named in public listings are within a few kilometres.
Because this is a city-centre residential scheme, typical living considerations include proximity to workplaces, local retail and the character of Al Satwa’s streetscape rather than resort amenities. The on-site retail provision is small, so many daily shopping and leisure needs are met by nearby districts.
