Traveling to Dubai from across the Arabian sea can be a rewarding experience. Many people have discovered this fascinating aspect in the last several decades and many more will continue doing the same in the years to follow. With so much of tourism headed towards Dubai, it was but logical for so many of the 5 star hotels to have got a foothold here. However, before planning out your next vacation to this part of the world, you should know what options you could choose from various hotel offers. Luxurious stay could be one of the options, only if your budget allows you to meet with the challenges lying ahead. There are so many low-end hotels on the other hand, that not only offer world class accommodation but also do so at a fairly reduced price.

Let us get some basic ideas of the rates and facilities normally these hotels would offer to any of their clients. We start by getting an overview of one of the most famous names in expensive staying, “Jumeirah Beach Hotel”. This wonderfully constructed seashore landmark of Dubai is one of the best of its kind and highly expensive in the entire world. Its fascinating architecture matches well with the level of Arabian warmth they are known to offer their services with. With facilities such as a health spa, swimming pools, golf driving range, tennis courts, a private beach, and a featured unlimited access to Wild Wadi Park, the “Jumeriah Beach Hotel” facility is probably one of the best places to be visited on the planet by any traveller. However, at $811 per suite per night rate, it is also one of the most expensive ones and unsuitable for the normal kind of holidaying.

There are more affordable options on the other hand, that most of the usual visitors would like to have a look on. One among many such names is the 4 star facility named “One&Only Royal Mirage”. This hotel offers a highly world class care and accommodation at a fairly reduced price of $280 per night’s stay. The facility “One&Only Royal Mirage” is located in Jumeira Beach, just twenty minutes away from the airport. This place is the perfect example for describing how non-expensive hotels in Dubai were not necessarily ordinary. Every single room in this hotel provides a wonderful ocean view. An exclusive beach, themed bar, croquet lawn, tennis courts, and other services are what characterize this place as one meant for people who demand the highest standards, at affordable rates.

Following down the line are cheap Dubai hotels that many of the visitors would be looking forward to having some information about. “Le Meridien Mina Seyahi Beach & Resort Marina”, is one such 3 star hotel, that carries highly concessional rates, but offers rooms and services worthy of being called that of Dubai’s status. The most noticeable feature of cheap Dubai hotels is their outstanding locations. One such example lies within the Meridien Mina Seyahi, which is just a few minutes away from the Mall of the Emirates and Ibn Battuta. It offers services such as: a health club, gym, steam room, kids club, sauna, aerobics etc. And all this fabulous booty starting at an amazingly low rate of $43 per night’s stay.

These three examples are just the tip of an iceberg, Dubai’s cheap and 5 star hotels could be described as. There is a vast range of information available these days online that you could easily have an access to and make use of to get your online bookings carried out. Just keep in mind while planning out your next visit to “The Jewel of the Sea”, the 5 star hotels of Dubai are one in many but not the only one option. You could try out different places for your staying demands, and go back home with marvelous traveling tales.

Luxury holidays to Dubai draw thousands of travellers to this fascinating part of the Middle East every year, and though it is famed for its ambitious (some would say crazy!) building projects, shopping festivals, and extravagant luxury hotels, Dubai isn’t the first place you would think of when considering a golf holiday. But Dubai is the playground for the rich and famous, and has always prided itself on offering every possible luxury experience for residents and holiday makers alike – golf is no exception.

Dubai now boasts a small but impressive selection of courses. France, the Algarve and America may remain the top golf destinations, but Dubai is becoming increasingly popular for those who want something a little different from their golf holidays. These are no novelty courses – they present a fearsome challenge to amateurs and professional golfers alike hosting a range of top flight international events every year, such as the Dubai Desert Classic.

Where to Play – 5 Top Courses in Dubai

No golf holiday in Dubai is complete without a visit to the two most famous courses: The Emirates Majlis and Dubai Creek. The Emirates Majlis was the very first grass course in the Middle East. Known as “The Desert Miracle”, it is famed for its Bedouin style clubhouse and very challenging layout – it requires tremendous skill to play well here. The Emirates Golf Club now has a second course designed by Nick Faldo, the Wadi, which provides a very different but equally challenging experience.

While the Emirates Majlis may have come first, Dubai Creek is perhaps the most famous course in the country, and there are plenty of luxury holidays to Dubai that have this course as a main attraction. The Dubai Creek is a delight to play on, with long, rolling fairways that are scattered with palm trees, and the clubhouse is an architectural triumph that features a luxury spa and gym. It is an essential course to play on while on a golf holiday in Dubai.

Those are the two biggest and most famous golf courses in Dubai, but there are plenty of others as well. The Montgomerie offers a splendid round of golf on a very beautiful course, renowned as one of the most attractive in the region. The clubhouse is the last word in luxury, with a restaurant that seats over a hundred, a gym, sauna, club bar and banqueting room. The Desert Course at the Arabian Ranches is the best choice for those who really want the experience of playing golf out in the desert, with the well tended greens alternating with sculpted patches of golden sand. It is a tight course that demands accuracy, but rewards careful play. Finally, there is the course at the Jebel Ali Hotel, which combines a great golf course with all the facilities of a luxury beach resort. The Jebel Ali is an excellent choice for a luxury holiday to Dubai, giving you the chance to experience, sun, sand and spas alongside some top quality golfing.

Happy people from the continent, my brothers and soulmates, you immaculate folks from all around Europe, be it the plains of Spain, the fields of Italy, the mountains of Albania or the forests of Germany, you may – or may not – have crossed the path of this rare and peculiar insular animal that we call a Briton.

If you ever cross one of them tourists strolling across your lands, don’t rush and call the police or write to your deputy. Keep your head cool. Remember this post. This is a foretaste of what you must expect from this unlikely encounter.

Briton is a shy animal. He’s reluctant to leave his natural biotope (see picture above) and rarely learns the language of other species. So if he comes straight at you and asks “Do you speak English?”, please take no offence. Just say “Yes”, as anyone of you has learned at school, and he will show signs of relief. Actually he didn’t expect any other answer.

Then he will ask you where he can find a cash-machine. In order to survive, reptilians need scales, Britons need money. And beer. Simply show him the way to the nearest ATM and try to spot whether there is a pub around. If so, sit in and wait for him to show up. It won’t take long till he does and as soon as he recognizes you, the Briton – being very generous by nature – will offer you a drink. And then another. And then another. And then another. And then he will leave.

If he sits at your table in France or Italy, he will try to say cunning things about food, wine and decoration. That’s some his favorite subjects. So be prepared to hear one of these familiar lines: “this cheese is excellent”; “I really like French wine but some Chilian wines are even better”; “your house is AMAZING, there is so much space for the children”; “it’s always been my dream to own a place in southern Europe”; “Nick and I actually thought about buying a whole village but the one we visited needs complete refurbishing”

If he comes to Germany, you won’t avoid this one: “German cars are terrific. I think the best would actually be to have an english bodywork coupled with a german engine.”

Then will come the time to share mutual cultural experiences.

Languages: “I learned Spanish, French, German and Ukrainian at school, I even did some latin. But I totally forgot it. It’s a pity, isn’t it?”

Travels: “My mother took me to Netherlands once when I was small. It was so flat. I didn’t like it” (Bonus track: “Shirley went to Dubaï. She got pissed and had sex on the beach with a married waiter. That was before she knew me of course. And yes, cheers, I’ll sure have another glass of wine”)

Perspectives: “I really think we should enjoy life. Work less hours. Have more time to party.”

Regrets: “I shouldn’t have married Michael. I should have gone to Africa and looked after people who really need my help.”

So, as you see, my humble friends, there is no need to panick. And since I have to be honest, not all of them are like this.

Dubai luxury holidays are now more popular than ever, and it is easy to see why. It is one of the fastest growing, most diverse and exciting cities in the world, with an outstanding range of luxury experiences on offer. Increasingly, travellers looking to get the most out of their Dubai luxury holidays are combining a visit to the city with a stay somewhere else – another place in Dubai, or a location in another country all together.

Often these multi-centre holidays will contrast two very different experiences. City and beach holidays in Dubai, for example, allow a visitor experience both the hustle and bustle of the city as well as the relaxation of a beach holiday. Perhaps most exciting are the multi-centre holidays designed to give a taste of two very different cultures – Hong Kong, Thailand and Sri Lanka are just some of the destinations that can be combined with a luxury holiday to Dubai.

Dubai and Hong Kong

A twin centre Dubai and Hong Kong holiday will expose you to two centres of international business. While Hong Kong is still the more economically powerful city of the two, Dubai’s rapid growth means that it may not stay in front for long, and a trip to these two cities will allow you to compare the attractions offered by them both. If the thought of exploring two busy cities sounds too tiring, you can choose to combine a break in Hong Kong with some quality time on the beach at one of Dubai’s luxury holiday resorts.

Dubai and Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is in some ways the Dubai of South Asia, a small, rapidly developing, multi ethnic country that is becoming an increasingly popular holiday destination. For the traveler on a multi-centre holiday to these two countries, Dubai offers up striking desert landscapes and a wealthy cosmopolitan city, while Sri Lanka presents beaches, tropical forests and a more traditional island culture.

Dubai and Thailand

With Dubai renowned as one of the most exciting places to go on a city break and Thailand a long time favourite for island and beach vacation, it is natural that the two should be combined together on a multi-centre holiday. The sights and attractions of Dubai city can be combined with a trip to Koh Samui, Hua Hin, or Phuket to enjoy Thailand’s relaxed atmosphere and beautiful beaches.

Dubai and the Seychelles

There could hardly be a greater contrast between Dubai city and the Seychelles, the international city and the island paradise, and this is what makes them a perfect pair of holiday destinations. Both places share is a host of luxury experiences, from the vibrant shopping culture at the Wafi Mall and Gold Souk in Dubai to the private islands and secluded beach resorts of the Seychelles.

Dubai and Oman

A multi-centre holiday doesn’t have to combine a trip to two completely different cultures – often, it can give you insights into the subtle differences between two seemingly similar countries. Combining a Dubai luxury holiday with a trip to Oman will give you contrasting experiences of Middle Eastern culture – Dubai, the millionaires’ playground and international business centre, and more traditional Oman, where distinctive cultural traditions still survive as part of everyday life.

In a couple of decades Dubai is emerged as one of the fastest growing tourist

destinations in the eastern Arabian Peninsula. Dubai is one of the seven emirates that constitute the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and sometime also called ‘Dubai City’.

All Jumeirah hotels have amazing architecture and are worth a visit for this alone. This, together with their famous customer service values, makes them a great choice for visitors to Dubai. For a true taste of Arabia, visit the Madinat Souk, part of the Madinat and Mina A Salam complex located on Jumeirah beach. This resort offers 42 restaurants overlooking the Burj Al Arab and situated on the edge of their very own canal. Watch the dhows transport the hotel guests around this vast complex on their waterways and lagoon. It really is a beautiful spot for a sundowner or a meal incorporating food from all over the world.

There are many other famous branded hotels in Dubai, from The One and Only Royal Mirage to Hiltons, Sheratons (both beach and airport locations), the Kempinski Group, Shangri La Group and Crown Plaza among many more. Most hotels are at 5 star standard, however there are some more lower cost hotels such as the 4 star Al Manzil hotel, located behind the worlds tallest building the Burj Dubai nestling in its own Arabian style architecture and complementing the huge sky rise buildings surrounding it.

The Grosvenor House hotel located in Dubai Marina is a fantastic venue for staying or visiting their restaurants and bars. Have a drink in Bar 44 located on the 44th floor of the hotel and offering amazing views of the Marina area, and then take the express lift down to the fabulous Buddha Bar for a fusion of Thai and international cuisine.

All 5 star hotels in Dubai have pools, gym and restaurant facilities with many offering spa areas too. Of course the crème de la crème of spa facilities has to be located within the 7 star hotels the Burj Al Arab, where reservations are recommended and the environment is so much part of the treatment you will never want to leave!

Many hotels also offer apartment facilities so if you are here longer term and want to experience more pf the home comforts, these are a great option.

Other companies capitalizing on the huge tourism market here are with their Versace Palazzo hotel and the Trump Towers hotel (located on the famous Palm Island). Versace should be opening its doors to the international elite during 2008 with Trump Tower hotel opening scheduled to be around early 2010.

Spoilt for choice between amazing desert hotels, luxury beach hotels as well as fantastic corporate hotels in the city, Dubai offers an eclectic mix to choose from. However all are within close proximity of all tourist facilities, shopping malls and attractions as well as its fantastic beaches – you can’t go far wrong with any location. Most city business hotels located along Sheikh Zayed road also have affiliations with beach hotels and will transport you to the beach during your stay.
