Hi Newbie - sent DH to look for Areen Tower this morning and he couldn't find it - I sent him a copy of this EW post, but he said he wandered around for ages looking. He wandered into other towers that were all fully furnished, but couldn't find Areen. He said several had no names on them. Is there anything specific to pinpoint the location/colour of building, etc. Does it have the name on it? DH is usually good at finding his way around - don't know what happened today?? lol! Thanks

Hi Amy, I live there and it is owned by Al Jazi compound people. We moved at the beginning of this month and so far, I can highly recommend it.

Is this the one owned by Al Jazi compound people? If so, it's meant to be great and I am sure there is someone off this forum living there already. I used to live opposite and it only opened in April.

I was just going to post that DH went this morning and there were only 3 beds available - shame - far too big for us! <em>edited by chizz on 30/07/2011</em>

Went to see Areen Tower this afternoon and really loved it - they only have 3 bedroom apartments left though

Thanks a lot Newbie/CC/MM - will send the directions to DH so he can have another go tomorrow - I will be in Doha hopefully on Wednesday, so I can then start to look around myself and hopefully DH will be finished at work by 2pm during Ramadan, so we can go and look together. Hopefully estate agents will be around to show us places after 2!

Sometimes it gets really hard to find the buildings when you are driving and they are close up! Chizz- the directions nd gave below are perfect so he will find it this time:) it looks like it's called something else on googlemaps but just have him look up Salam and it's between salam and the intercon. Maybe point out the French school on the map. He probably doesn't know Salam as most men would not...until they get the cc bill ;) and I have been here 10 mths now and never knew there was an intercon over there and I am only blocks away! I have learned to create and save places/maps in google maps and then you can email the links or grab the coordinates...comes in handy!

Already told DH to get me the number but he's out for dinner, he'll get it whe he goes back home. Meanwhile, I'll try to explain the directions: Turn to the right just before Salam store (opposite CC) if you're coming from the pearl side. Then take the first road to the right and then the first right again -if that makes sense... Areen is the first building on the left. It is on the smallish side -around 30 floors-and white colored; it has a big outdoor parking lot. It really is less than a minute drive from CC. HTH, will update you when I get the phone number or worse case scenario, I'll give you DH's number.

I'm not that good at directions so I think it's better if I give you their phone number. I'm out of the country but DH is there, I'll tell him to get it for u.
