welcome abored , and welcome to bahrain soon
ill answer some of your Q..

1.    Is this salary enough for a family of two?
yah its will be enough and more

2.    Approx. Cost of accommodation for a fully furnished apartments (single or double bedroom)?
you can find a great apartments near manama, cuz manama hard to find

3.    Good residential localities near Manama where I could rent apartments for reasonable rent.
as i said its a lit bit hard but you can find one which is good.

4.    Cost of transportation using local taxis
my advice for u, get a rent car monthly 170BD much better than taxi.

5.    Average monthly expenses for a middle class family – groceries, entertainment (once or twice a month like watching movies or outing), etc.
u can go out and have fun every weekend, its not a big deal

6.    How much would I be able to save on the above offered salary post my expenses?
you will save alot if you know how to run the 1500 BD in Bahrain

regards

Thanks Christine...
