For UK holidaymakers, the Asia & Middle East region offers a seamless blend of world-class luxury, reliable sunshine, and warm hospitality. It is a favourite for those looking to escape the British climate for a high-quality retreat, whether you are seeking a relaxed beachfront break or a vibrant city escape with unmatched service levels.

While every destination in this vast region offers a distinct character, the common thread is a commitment to excellence in tourism. From tranquil coastal retreats to bustling metropolitan hubs, there is a variety of experiences tailored for travellers flying out from hubs like Manchester or Liverpool who expect convenience and comfort.

Where to Go: Our Destinations

Currently, our featured destination in the region is the United Arab Emirates. This country is a masterclass in modern travel, offering everything from high-octane city experiences to serene island relaxation.

• United Arab Emirates: An ideal choice for travellers wanting a mix of ultra-modern city life and relaxing beach breaks. Dubai provides a fast-paced environment with iconic coastal luxury, while Ras Al Khaimah offers a slightly more laid-back pace, perfect for those wanting to unwind by the sea.

Luxury Stays for Your Next Break

Choosing the right resort is key to getting the most out of your holiday. We work with some of the most highly-regarded properties in the region:

• Atlantis, The Palm (Dubai): A premier luxury resort situated on the iconic Palm Jumeirah, perfect for those seeking a grand holiday experience.
• Dukes The Palm Dubai Hotel (Dubai): Another sophisticated option on the Palm Jumeirah that brings a refined atmosphere to your Dubai stay.
• Grand Hyatt Dubai Resort and Waterpark (Dubai): Located near the Creek, this resort is an excellent choice for those who want to be at the heart of the city's action.
• DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan Island (Ras Al Khaimah): This beachfront resort on Marjan Island is the go-to spot for travellers looking for a tranquil, sun-soaked retreat.

When to Go and How to Choose

The climate across the United Arab Emirates is characterised by long, hot summers and milder, pleasant winters. Most UK travellers find that the period from late autumn through to early spring offers the most comfortable temperatures for both relaxing on the beach and exploring the local area, avoiding the intense heat of mid-summer.

When deciding where to stay, consider the pace you are after. Dubai is well-suited for those who want to be close to the action, with its vast array of shopping, dining, and sight-seeing opportunities. Families often gravitate towards resorts with dedicated water facilities or beachfront access. If you prefer a quieter environment, Ras Al Khaimah provides a more secluded atmosphere, making it a favourite for couples or families who want to focus on pool-side and beach relaxation without the bustle of the city centre.
