Expert Info

I am getting ready to send several (as many as four) employees to Dharan, Saudi Arabia. I am seeking housing for them near there, possibly Dammam or Khobar, etc. I need both temporary and permanent housing for them. They will be there for several years. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I also need to understand the associated costs. Thanks!

You'll likely need to take out space in designated compounds. Aramco has a massive compound in Al Khobar, perhaps see if you can get in contact with management and request a contact.

Aramco's compound is in Dhahran. you will only be able to live on Aramco if you work for Aramco. I'm guessing you are an expat company? forget about Dammam. or are you a contractor for Aramco? you'd need to live in al Khobar. There are plenty of compounds and apartments there, however, not sure how full they all are? Where are you all coming from? are the 4 employees males? are they sharing or living single in different apartments? if you ge tme more info I could possibly give you tel numbers or websites of compounds here?

If your employees are going to be working in Dhahran then you want to house them in Al-Khobar. Most of the western compounds in Al-Khobar are full, however if it is bachelor housing for a western the cheapest you can get currently is around $100K USD per year for a studio.
