Jumeirah Golf Estates is a luxury residential golf community along E 311 road, in Me'aisem 1, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. In 2021, it was rated among the top 10 lifestyle estates in the world.[1]

Jumeirah Golf Estates consists of over 1,500 villas, townhouses, and apartments arranged into more than a dozen distinct communities, set alongside two Greg Norman-designed 18-hole golf courses,[2] each with a different environmentally themed name – Fire and Earth. The Earth Course is the host venue for the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai, the season-ending tournament of the European Tour.[3]

Jumeirah Golf Estates is served by its own metro station on the Route 2020 section of the Dubai Metro's Red Line, serving the Expo 2020 site to the south.[4]
