Mangaf is a suburb of Kuwait City. It is a mix of old and new. The old is split into two areas; commercial and residential. Government housing from the 1980s formed the area with houses, while the rest was a large collection of residential tower blocks, a limited number of shops and fast-food places.

There is a larger concentration of shops in the area locally known as Al Azeeziya. A concentration of mobile phone shops, computers, and more. It also has a branch of the Sultan Center chain.

The suburb has witnessed a huge expansion with the additional area being mainly residential. Works are nearing completion with some areas still missing basic infrastructure.

The new split of blocks gives Mangaf a total of 5. Block five is the Hilton Resort Kuwait, with the other blocks being made up of primarily two or three storey villas. Mangaf is now a destination living area for expats looking for good affordable living in Kuwait.[1]

Mangaf sits on the Persian Gulf and adjacent to the Hilton's private beach, there is a small public beach accessible from the Coastal Road.
