There are many nice and cheap hotels you can stay in.

Can you give me an idea of price to rent a 1BDR apt for 4 days in Dubai Marina area?

Thanks

Where to go for lower-end shopping?

MTIA 🙂

Temperature can go as high as 50 deg cel during the day. Best time during winter between Dec to Feb as weather will be cooler.


Can try skiing at their man-made Indoor Ski Resort, take an exciting Dune Ride, go on a Camel Ride or have a Campfire BBQ in the middle of the Desert... :love: 😄

Desert safari.
We were 80 people from the worldwide offices. Convo of 20 SUVs. Cool weather 15C and great company. Food passable though.
It was a collective feel good outing hence it was fun.
I do admire the driver’s skill to navigate some rather high sand dunes.

desert safari is so-so 😞

Personally, i don't like the place at all.

I was there for a meeting early part of this year. Cool weather.

Around Jumeirah Beach is nice. I stayed in the Sofitel.

Desert Safari was fun!

chixchix:
how many hours flight is it from here ?

7.5hrs, anyway will only plan 1-2 yrs later. According to some dubai websites, many metro stations are not ready yet.

try atlantis the palm. its a bit pricey but worth it. it has a dolphin bay beach where your kids can swim with dolphins in shallow water and it also has a theme park called aquaventure where there are many fun water slides. and the hotel room is very luxurious and is really on the atlantis theme thing. its expensive but its like a disneyland hotel except with the ocean theme

Its too expensive for me...more than $1000 sgd per night according to some hotel websites. I am looking for rooms around $150-$250.

Any more recommendation of places of interest ?

thanks

regards
