13 Eid Al Adha staycation offers in Dubai
Jumeirah Al Naseem
There are, of course, a bunch of deals at Jumeirah’s various properties in Dubai but for an Eid weekend, the newest is perhaps the best. Rooms at Al Naseem usually only start at AED1,600 so to get a discount this healthy on a holiday weekend is very appealing – unless you’d rather splash out a cool AED4,860 for the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah. No?
Where: Madinat Jumeirah
Eid offer: Rooms from AED1,404

Manzil Downtown
Starting with a very simple, blissfully uncomplicated offer for Eid, you can book this jewel of a hotel a stone’s throw from all the action in Downtown Dubai for a crisp 10 percent off the best available rate for whatever room you book. Easy. There’s also a cracking Eid brunch on the Friday.
Where: Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard
Eid offer: 10 percent off the best available rate between August 31-September 3
Contact: +9714 423 8899
Vida Downtown
If you like Downtown and want to stay longer with an even fatter discount, head further up Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard to Vida and get more for, well, more. U By Emaar members will get an additional 10 percent off, too.
Where: Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard
Eid offer: 10 percent discount on stays of two nights, 15 percent on three and 20 percent on four

Towers Rotana
This is, frankly, a ridiculously good offer considering the hotel’s star rating, central location and presence of one of our favourite restaurants, Teatro. Book a room for just AED299 per night or, if you have family or a load of friends, you can book the Weekend Escape – a room for two adults with two kids with Friday brunch and Saturday lunch thrown in. Bargain.
Where: Sheikh Zayed Road
Eid offer: Rooms from AED299

W Dubai
Have a slick, contemporary and super stylish long weekend amid all the minimal styling of this recently opened New York transplant. And with the Wet Deck and W Lounge offering discounts, your extravagance won’t even cost you that much. Nice.
Where: Al Habtoor City
Eid offer: 20 percent off rooms and 30 percent off select restaurants and lounges – if you book direct

Palazzo Versace
An Eid-only offer to try out this palatial hotel – the service and quality in which we are happy to vouch for. Despite its location near the airport and the ongoing construction in this part of Dubai, this is an exceptionally refined and tranquil oasis. You deserve this.
Where: Al Jadaf, Dubai Creek
Eid offer: Rooms from AED1,150 with 20 percent discount on dining and spa treatments
Contact: +9714 556 8888
Westin Mina Seyahi
When we say a healthy discount on the rates, we mean rooms that start from an already generous AED630, which for a hotel with its own stretch of private beach, manicured gardens and some of the most popular restaurants and bars in town is a total steal. Subject to availability and all that.
Where: Al Suqeim
Eid offer: Up to 20 percent off the normal room rate
Contact: +9714 399 4141
Anantara The Palm
The offer here is more about giving you something back for your custom. Check in and receive a nice slab of credit that can be redeemed in the resort’s restaurants and bars – and that includes the excellent Mekong and Bushman’s – or the Anantara Spa. Deal.
Where: Crescent Road, The Palm
Eid offer: Resort credit of AED150 per room, AED400 per villa on all direct bookings
Contact: +9714 567 8888
Fairmont The Palm
Book a room, which start at a more than reasonable AED585 (plus taxes), on a half-board basis – breakfast and either lunch or dinner in Flow Kitchen – and you’ll get a 10 percent discount on the best available rate. And with its beach and four swimming pools, why would you want to head anywhere else?
Where: Crescent Road, The Palm
Eid offer: 10 percent off the best rates on all half-board bookings

Atlantis The Palm
A generous discount and unlimited access to Aquaventure Waterpark and The Lost Chambers Aquarium? Not bad. Unless of course you’re a MasterCard holder, then it’s a whopping 40 percent off rooms, 25 percent off all Atlantis restaurants and the ShuiQi Spa. Which is frankly outstanding.
Where: Crescent Road, The Palm
Eid offer: 15 percent off the best available rate

One&Only The Palm
Get away from it all by, well, getting away from it all. Located right on the very end of the crescent surrounding The Palm, this luxury escape is one of the more alluring corners of Dubai. Opt for the two-night package and you’ll also have the opportunity to dine in Stay by Yannick Alléno, the three Michelin-starred French chef, and also grab afternoon tea.
Where: Crescent Road, The Palm
Eid offer: 20 percent off the best price; or a two-night Romance in Style package that includes dinner in any of the resort restaurants, complimentary afternoon tea and spa discounts
Contact: +9714 440 1010
Lapita Dubai Parks and Resorts
Come on. Like, come on. Who doesn’t want to do this? Book any room type at Lapita, the Polynesian inspired palace, and you and whoever you bring with you will get passes to all the theme parks. With rooms from AED1,080 during Eid, that seems like very good value to us.
Where: Dubai Parks and Resorts
Eid offer: Free access to Motiongate, Bollywood Parks, Legoland and Legoland Water Park
Contact: +9714 810 9999
JW Marriott Marquis Dubai
It seems incredible that you can stay in this hotel for less than AED500 per night – and then get generous discounts on its restaurants. And with Rang Mahal, Prime68, Tong Thai, Izakaya and what seems like 20 others to choose from, that seems like a deal too good to pass up.
Where: Business Bay
Eid offer: 20 percent off the best available room rate and 20 percent off all dining
