"Expat homes and apartments in Mumbai are typically modern and luxurious, with amenities such as air conditioning, high-speed internet, and 24-hour security. Many expat homes and apartments are located in upscale neighborhoods, such as Bandra, Juhu, and Malabar Hill, and offer stunning views of the city skyline. Expat homes and apartments often come with a variety of amenities, such as swimming pools, gyms, and private gardens. Expats can also find a variety of housing options, from high-rise apartments to villas and bungalows," said a member in Mumbai, India.

"We live in 2000 sq ft, flat; 4 bedroom that 3 bedrooms have 2 floor to ceiling wall closets; 5 bathrooms as the smallest is for the maid; 3 patios with 2 small patios attached to 2 bedrooms. The kitchen is small with one sink and a built in stove and a patio for the washing machine. I had to buy the refrigerator. I have a storage room with shelves. I have wall sliding glass doors in 2 bedrooms and the living room, and large window in the dining area, giving the place lots of light, and unfortunately, heat. We have an AC unit in each bedroom and living room. It is smaller than most expats' homes. They tend to live in much larger flats," remarked another expat who made the move to Mumbai, India.
