Zabeel (Arabic: زعبيل), alternatively spelled Za'abel or Za'abeel, is a community in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). Located in western Dubai, Zabeel comprises two sub-communities:
- Zabeel 1, is adjacent to Al Nasr and is bounded to the south by routes E 66 (Oud Metha Road) and D 73 (2nd Zabeel Road). This sub-community is residential and contains Zabeel Stadium and Zabeel Park, a popular spot for sports and live music.
- Zabeel 2, is bounded to the east by Zabeel 1 and to the west by Business Bay. Zabeel 2 contains the Nad Al Sheba Racecourse and the Ruler's Palace (Zabeel Palace).
Both Zabeel 1 and Zabeel 2 are relatively newer, more affluent communities with villas and town homes.
