Dubai, July 2, 2025:
As summer temperatures rise across the UAE, hotels and resorts have introduced a wide range of special staycation offers aimed at local residents and tourists from the GCC. From luxurious beachfront resorts to affordable city hotels, these deals are designed to keep hotel occupancy high during the traditionally slower summer months. Some hotels are offering rooms for as low as Dh100, making it an attractive time to explore local destinations.
Although many UAE residents travel abroad during the summer holidays, these offers target those who choose to stay in the country. The promotions are also appealing to visitors from nearby GCC countries, such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Bahrain, who often take short trips to the UAE.
Here’s a look at some of the top deals:
