Apartments are a more “personal” alternative to the impersonal hotel atmosphere. If you prefer a home-like atmosphere with your own catering facilities, even when you are on vacation, an apartment is for you. Furnished apartments in Dubai come with bed, bath, catering and other facilities typical of a personal home.

Dubai furnished apartments provide typical vacationing facilities like access to beaches and swimming pools and can be located quite near tourist attractions. For those who wish to combine vacation and business, the broadband wireless Internet connections available at most apartments will prove invaluable, and you can hire additional business equipment such as printers and scanners.

Apartments are typically personal homes of residents. The owners have entrusted the homes to agencies that cater to the accommodation needs of travelers. They can be independent villas or apartments in an apartment complex.

Apartments in Dubai can be rented for a day, week or month, and are typically available for short terms.

Words are certainly not enough to describe the Dubai sightseeing experience. I have been there so many times yet each time is a different and a much better experience than the previous one.

Why? Because nothing is ever the same. Dubai keeps adding more to its infrastructure and the many different entertainment options as far as things to do in Dubai. In fact the city doesn’t even look the same when I go to visit. There is always something new….as if a building was taken and moved to a new location all together (reminds me of LEGOS when I was a kid).

Pretty insane if you ask me. But amazing indeed. There is so much to sightseeing in Dubai that you will run out of time very quickly. This place is definitely worth multiple visits to truly explore in its entirety. And I can promise you that each of the moments will be a lifelong, memorable moment spent well.

So touring around Dubai is one of the activities that you should not miss. You must devote more of your time for this kind of endeavor! When touring Dubai you can choose to start your tour in the sands, sea, creek, or in the city proper.

All these places offer different sights to behold. There are a myriad of natural and man-made sights in Dubai. Dubai is home for so many world icons that showcase the advancements of engineering and architecture in Dubai.

Record-setting architectural and engineering masterpieces that offer the best sights for the visitors include the Burj Dubai, Burj Al Arab, Palm Islands, and the World Islands. The Burj Dubai is now set as the world’s tallest building dwarfing the other skyscrapers of the world. The Burj Al Arab situated at the Arabian Gulf showcases a special work of the architectural geniuses in its 1,053 feet high sail-shaped structure.

The Palm Islands is a man-made palm tree-shaped resort island. This resort island was planned to offer several sandy beach resorts in its over 120-kilometer coastline. The palm-shaped development was planned to be visible from the moon.

The World Island is like the Palm Island only resembling the shape of the world. This Nakheel development is an exclusive development of islands that are sold by invitation. The World Island situated off the coast of Dubai offers a paradise of sea, sand, and sky.

The views of these man-made attractions offer ravishing sights for Dubai locals and tourists especially when well lit at night.

Other sites worth visiting during your Dubai sightseeing include the following:

• The Desert View that offers several wavy sand dunes and where you can ride a roaring and sand bashing 4WD.

• The Jumeirah Mosque, Dubai’s largest mosque that showcase the medieval Fatimid tradition in its stone construction. The mosque is available for tour every Thursday morning.

• Dubai Museum. Located inside the Al Fahidi Fort, the Dubai Museum holds several exhibits that showcase the rich cultural heritage and history of Dubai.

• Madinat Jumeirah. Designed similarly to an ancient Arabian citadel, this Arabian Resort also pays tribute to Dubai’s cultural heritage.

• The Gold Souq. This is the shoppers’ paradise in Dubai that offers gold, jewelry, and other precious stones coming from different parts of the world such as Asia, Europe, and the Far East.

• Clock Tower. Marking the center of Dubai is the Clock Tower located at the base of the Maktoum Bridge. This prime and famous landmark of Dubai offers a timeless sight of busy people rushing in the streets of Dubai just around the Clock Tower.

• Wonderland. This very first theme park in Dubai still wows its visitors with its fun rides for the entire family.

The setting of the sun in Dubai won’t end your sightseeing adventure, in fact the last visible ray of the sun signals the rise of more fun and dearly sights of Dubai.

Jumeirah owns the Emirates Towers hotel, the Jumeirah Beach hotel, the Madinat group of hotels, which includes Mina A Salam, Al Qasr & the Madinat Souk which houses the largest swimming pool in the Middle East. Jumeirah also owns the amazing desert hotel, Bab Al Shams, located in the desert with sand dunes rolling from its perimeters and making a fantastic landscape for the falcon shows and camel riding they offer.

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 each is 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 others. Most hotels are at 5 star standard, however there are some lower cost hotels such as the 4 star Al Manzil hotel, located behind the world’s 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, gyms and restaurant facilities with many offering spa areas as well. Of course the crème de la crème of spa facilities has to be located within the 7 star hotels of 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 of 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 the Trump Tower hotel opening scheduled to be around early 2010.

Ranging from amazing desert hotels, luxury beach hotels and 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.
