Greetings all,

i tried to do my homework by looking up any info about living in the Al-Sadd area on here but all i found were housing ads...can anyone tell me what kind of area this is? any gyms around? shopping?? pools/beaches? I apologize in advance if these are redundant but there's nothing on here about this area...

thanks,
n

I used to live in Al Saad for more than 18 years, the place where i lived everything was just walking distance, from buying a pin to gas cylinder :P very nice area, lots of shops and restaurants, grocery shops, clothes, lulu, Royal Plaza, KFC, Gym's too.

Al sadd is one of the most central areas in Doha. Nice street, nice shops around including the Royal Plaza Mall...No beaches though...:) Beaches are mostly in the hotels or far out of Doha... Usually compounds in Doha in general, and on Al Sadd street in particular have swimming pools...

In general, it is one of the best areas in Doha.. but the traffic is terrible.. like actually anywhere else in the city..
