Middle East · Destination guide
Home advantage.
Home advantage: seven emirates of beach resorts, desert camps, mountain lodges and city icons — all within a tank of petrol. The UAE staycation has quietly become world-class, and residents get the best of it.
Seasons
Prime season: beach weather without the furnace, al-fresco dining and desert nights cool enough for a fire.
Summer brings serious heat — and serious hotel deals. Pool-and-spa resets and indoor city weekends at half the winter price.
Know before you go
Hospitality is the region’s oldest tradition — gahwa (cardamom coffee) and dates on arrival. Receive with the right hand, and a gentle shake of the cup says “no more, thank you”.
Between the towers there’s a deeper UAE: Al Fahidi’s wind-tower lanes, Sharjah’s museums, Al Ain’s oases and pearl-diving history along the coast.
