23 Marina, Dubai - World's Most Luxurious Residence?

23 Marina, located in Dubai Marina and developed by Hircon International, may well be the most luxurious residential tower in the entire world. Although my main focus is on the real estate developments of the Middle East I also closely follow real estate projects all over the world and I must say I have not seen any other residential tower anywhere in the world that rivals 23 Marina in over the top luxury.

23 Marina is huge. In fact it is one of the tallest residential towers in the world, the third tallest tower in Dubai and the seventeenth tallest tower overall worldwide. The luxury amenities in 23 Marina are beyond anything I have seen anywhere in the world and they include an astounding FIFTY SEVEN swimming pools, a private elevator and private pool for EACH duplex in the tower, a lobby entrance hall 6 storeys high and a total of 62 elevators in the building!
