Make a holiday rental, home or villa in Dubai your home away from home

Dubai

Dubai, 'the Desert City', is a city made for year round travel. The most exciting city in the UAE, Dubai is a modern destination, yet remains true to its roots, steeped in tradition. With rugged mountains, stunning beaches, lush parks and desert villages on the outskirts, there is a Dubai holiday villa here to suit all budgets and tastes.

Things to do in Dubai

The shopping in Dubai is admired around the world. There are two ultra-modern shopping malls and a large diversity of shops and boutiques selling everything from designer clothes, electronics and traditional craft. Each year, Dubai hosts a month long shopping festival from mid-January, which attracts thousands of visitors from around the globe, and puts Dubai self catering accommodation in high demand. In amongst the shops are also some fantastic places to eat. The restaurants in Dubai take a mix of European, Asian and Middle Eastern culinary styles.

There is much to see in the city of Dubai, from the world’s tallest hotel, artificial island which have added an extra 120km of beachfront and many exceptionally beautiful buildings dominating the skyline. Dubai hosts a large number of exclusive sporting events. The Dubai World Cup, the richest race in the world, international tennis tournaments and multi-million pound golf competitions are all massive attractions drawing thousands of visitors to stay in Dubai holiday rentals.

This international legacy means that there are world class facilities to be enjoyed when you take a Dubai holiday villa, weather it is a Dubai apartment with a pool or a Dubai luxury villa. It has a number of fine golf courses open to the public, indoor ice rinks, health clubs and riding stables.

The water sports in Dubai are also excellent. Sailing, jet skiing, water skiing, scuba diving, snorkelling and deep sea fishing can all be enjoyed from the Dubai creek. Alternatively, you can head in the other direction from your Dubai villa rental, into the vast desert on a desert safari, which is guaranteed to be an unforgettably brilliant experience from your Dubai accommodation. Desert driving and paragliding are also hugely popular activities deep in the sands of the desert.

Places to holiday in Dubai

The traditional heart of the city, Bur Dubai, is to the south of Dubai Creek. Here, the Dubai Museum and Natural History Museum can be found as well as the beautiful architecture of Jumeirah Mosque, House of Sheik Saeed and many other attractions.

Deira in the north is the modern commercial centre, with a huge array of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.

If you are looking for a beach holiday from your Dubai holiday, Jumeirah Beach, just 20 minutes from Dubai, is a luxury resort with a beautiful sandy beach and a range of luxury Dubai holiday villas.

Weather in Dubai

Dubai's weather is due to its arid sub tropical climate. October until April is the best time to visit, with daily temperatures between 20 and 30ºC.

Flights to Dubai

Dubai International Airport (DXB) services the city and the Dubai holiday villas available for rent. There are regular flights from the major British Airports on a variety of airlines. Try British Airways for cheap flights to Dubai, although other airlines often offer good deals.
