Dubai is becoming one of the most favorite holiday destination for people all over the world, but especially for affluent Westerners who want sun, sand, culture, and relaxation. Where you are planning a family holiday, a honeymoon or just a dream destination that you’ve been saving up for, Dubai knows no equal. Of course, it must compete with the attractions of similar, sunbathed cities, so there are many bars, clubs, restaurants and performance shows. But truthfully, the city was designed from the first brick that was layed, to be a getaway experience of pure luxury. No other place in the world comes close because here, you can eat a caviar breakfast, enjoy a back massage, go jet skiing, dine at a 5-star restaurant and enjoy a hand and face massage by the pool; all in one day. There are so many things on offer; it would be foolish to even try to list them. However, here’s a taste of what you may find to your liking.
