What better way of spending summer in the UAE than going on a good old-fashioned daycation (that's a day out, for all you layperson out there)? Sure you can always opt for a staycation or a full-blown vacation, but the aforementioned take some degree of preparation, commitment and are more prone to disruptions.

Hotels and resorts across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah are currently offering attractive daycation packages enabling us to foray into their opulent rooms, pools, beaches and eateries without having to spend the night. Thus we say, let us embark on a daycation where we may treat ourselves to a slice of paradise and lounge in luxury if only for a day.
