Dubai Holiday Tips

Dubai is continuing to be popular as a holiday destination and it is easy to understand why. New hotels are being built and they seem to spare no expense to try and exceed customers definition of pure luxury. One such hotel is the Jumeirah Zabeel Saray, Dubai. This is a truly luxurious beachside hotel located on the west crescent of the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai. The hotel offers amazing views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai’s impressive skyline. The lavish interior is inspired by palaces from the Ottoman period and features hand painted finishings, Turksish artworks and stunning murals that are a throwback to the magnificent era of the Ottoman Empire.

Dubai as a Stopover

Dubai makes a fantastic stopover holiday destination on your way to a more relaxing beach holiday. We recommend about 3 or 4 nights in Dubai followed by perhaps a holiday in Thailand. Emirates Airlines flies from the UK direct to Dubai and they aslo fly on to other holiday destinations in the Far East and even on to Australia.Dubai makes a fascinating holiday stopover destination because it is a shoppers paradise with huge malls like the Dubai Mall which has every shop imaginable. Other shopping malls include Marina Mall and Mall of the Emirates. With a fantastic choice of hotels, great restaurants, water parks and beaches there is plenty to keep you occupied.
