Dubai is one of the first destinations that come to mind when you think of taking a lavish vacation. The UAE emirate is synonymous with glamour, luxury and pure opulence, with thousands of travellers flooding the city each year to experience the finer things in life.
Although it is possible to travel to Dubai on a tight budget, this will prove to be a difficult endeavour as cheap hotels and activities are scarce. The emirate is not only one of the most popular travel destinations in the world, but it is also one of the most expensive. In fact, the city was named the 13th most expensive city for a holiday in 2017, but quickly made its way up the list and now sits in the 8th spot in 2022.
If you’re looking for a vacation filled with excess and extravagance, then Dubai is definitely the place for you – and trust us, it’s worth every penny. It might cost you more than an average international trip, but you’ll rack up unforgettable memories from the lap of luxury.
From Michelin-starred restaurants and world-class shopping experiences to days spent on stunning yachts and the extraordinary nightlife, the city is filled with priceless bucket-list moments that are too good to be measured in money.
So, if you’re planning an extended stay in Dubai for 30 days or more, why not do it right and book yourself into one of our recommended luxury hotels and serviced apartments for a visit that’s fit for royalty.
