Hi Wink. Just out of interest do both these towers only have fully furnished apartments or do they have semi furnished? FYI, Al Areen Tower will rent either FF or SF, and I believe Amaal Tower will do the same (both are managed by Al Jazi Real Estate).

Both are fully furnished. BHT will not remove furniture. Sara may but make sure you get it in writing after negotiating it.

You may consider Beverly Hills Tower in West Bay. I am new to Doha, and just moved in here. I found it's very convenience place for newbies without a car just like me. :) Full furnished, all utilities included, parkings, basic TV channels, internet, house cleaning (once a week) - one bill for everything! have a spa/gym(free membership QR7000 per year, 20% discount for all spa treatments & fitness classes), swimimg pool, cafeteria, convenience store, dry cleaners, limo service, traveling agency, etc. Also, walking distance to shopping mall (city center) and supermarket (carrefour)...Easy to get a public taxi at the city center as well. I am not sure if there is any vacancy now. Try to contact the leasing office # 4412 2039. <em>edited by Sophiexo on 20/01/2012</em>

If your husband is working at the Musherieb site-- it's not near City Center. It's near the old center of the city - which if your looking on a map - look for Souq Waqif/ Musherib/ Emiri Diwan. I'm not sure where the headquarters for the project are located though - it's possible that they are in West Bay (which people might call City Center)

Al Areen Tower in the West Bay has FF 3 bedroom apartments still available - I don't think too many though. You don't need to go through an agent - you can come straight to the tower and ask someone from Reception to show you around, and then they will put you in touch with management to discuss rental terms.

City Center itself has some fully furnished apartments which would obviously be really close. I think Beverly Hills and Beach towers are both furnished (check me on that though b/c we don't live in either) The Pearl which is a little bit further out from other areas of town, but really close to City Center also has fully furnished apartments, but you would need to find the people renting them out so I believe for that you would go through a real estate company. There are lots of nice furnished villas, but all the ones I know are in the Al Waab and Ain Khaled area, which is a nightmare getting to city center during rush hour times, so hopefully some of the other ladies might be able to help you with close villa ideas.
