Dubai is a city that caters to holidaymakers. Whatever your interests are, you’ll find something exciting here during your stay at one of the many Dubai holiday homes available. Great attractions, shopping, activities, and - yes - even history are all part of the fun during a stay at a Dubai holiday letting .
The premier attraction of the futuristic city is the Burj Khalifa, which is the world’s tallest building. You can spend a lot of time at this building, which also has the Dubai Fountain, the world’s largest fountain, outside, as well as a stunning 10 hectare park which is adjacent to the building. Visit the observation deck (which is the highest such deck in the world despite it being not much more than half-way up the building!) for views that ignite the imagination.
Dubai Mall is home to more than a thousand luxury and designer stores, where you can buy everything you can imagine. The world’s largest shopping mall is about more than just the damage it does to your credit card, however - there’s also plenty of world-class entertainment in the building, including an aquarium, theme park, and ice-rink.
Another famous shopping centre is the Mall of the Emirates, which has more than 600 stores. The unique feature of this shopping centre is Ski Dubai, an indoor ski centre that features five slopes - one of which is rated as a black diamond run.
Many people decide to rent a Dubai holiday villa because of how modern the city is, but there’s also plenty of ‘Old Dubai’ attractions to visit too. Visit the Al-Fahidi Fort, which was built in 1787 and now houses the Dubai Museum, which showcases the development of the Emirates over the past few centuries. You can also take a stroll around the old part of the city, Al Bastakiya, which features Arabian architecture from the 19th century.
