    Gopika , It goes like this.....

    Two bedroom compound villa:

    Will be in compound with all facilities like pool,park etc...Inside the city,you will get it for 8000-10000QRS.But there is a compound called Ezdan which is in Wakrah and beyond which works out less.

    Two bedroom sharing villa:

    This is a partitioned villa which might cost around 5000-6000 QRS approx.

    Two bedroom apartment will be of same price as partitioned villa.

    thanx a lot bhuvnidhi..
    btw, does sharing villas have privacy???
    unfurnished is fine coz i think my hubby is getting relocation allowances ..
    its okay if the accomodation is outside the town center..
    also does these sharing villas have individual entrances and all?
    will i get a privacy accomodation in villas (2 br/) for around 4000qr outside the town center??

    Hi Gopika,

    Welcome to Doha.

    Privacy of sharing villas depends on the one you choose. In case of partitioned villas, you may have a common main entrance to the villa and separate entrance for each of the partitioned blocks inside. We stay in a compound villa that is partitioned and we have our own privacy. 1BHK unfurnished accomodation costs us QAR 5000.

    And, I doubt whether you could get a 2 BHK villa for QAR 4000 even outside the town center.

    Gopika, Yes, You can get 2BHK for 4000-4500(considering the free mnths too) in Wakra or wekeir.Ezdan has 2BHK apartment (not villa)in that range.One of my friend told me Alfardan villas in wekeir have 2BHK for 4300 Qrs.I have not checked it out yet.

    Madhu has given you the right answer for your query on sharing villas.

    Gopika.. hope you would not mind if i use this thread as well.
    Hi sharmilla and bhuv and others.. what would be the main consideration when choosing the accommodation here?
    less traffic, quiet place?
    driving distance to office?
    shops/malls/indian stores in close ?
    family entertainment/parks/ close by?
    proximity to school ?

    in our case school is not an issue at the moment. Now The company has given us choice to select either villa, compound, apartment, shared villa, etc. (everything related to accomm will be borne by them). Only condition is that they have some selected locations (west bay, pearl, old airport, Fereej bin, barzan 2 etc.) where these sort of accom available. The complete list of locations yet to be given. so we are looking for pointers to decide.. especially from Indians point of view to find a comfortable area to live.
    thanks for helping.

    Hi gopika,

    This thread is helpful for me too, as we are coming to Qatar shortly. When are you relocating?
