There are numerous threads on cost of living in Bahrain, so firstly I suggest you read these.

Again it is hard for anyone to tell you what your cost of living would be as it depends on factors that we have no idea about
i.e. if you rent a 2 bedroom unfurnished apartment it would be cheaper than a 2 bedroom fully furnished
if you want your child to go to one of the best schools it will be more expensive than if they went to a normal decent school
if you go out a lot then your costs will increase
are you buying a car or renting one? if you rent a SUV it would be more expensive than a small car like a yaris


There are plenty of property sites that will give you an idea of rent for whatever type of accommodation you choose and school websites will give you fees.

Do some research and if you have friends here ask them. Without details about what kind of life you lead no one can tell you how much you'd be spending per month and how much you would save.
