Itinerary
Days 1 – 3
Holiday Inn Dubai Festival City
Spend the opening three nights of your adventure getting to know Dubai. Due to Holiday Inn Dubai Festival City’s enviable location you’re just minutes away from all the famous sights and sounds.
Get out and explore, with a 20-minute drive you could find yourself in the heart of the action on Jumeirah Beach. But if you’re saving your sea-legs for Mauritius you can take another quick car journey to some of the iconic sights like The Palm, Burj Khalifa or Burj Al Arab.
But the great thing about Holiday Inn is the fact that you don’t have to travel to see some of the other icons of the metropolis. Right on your doorstep is Festival City Mall where hundreds of big label boutiques, bars, restaurants, a cinema, and even a record-breaking show are waiting to be discovered. The IMAGINE show holds the world record for the largest water projection and video mapping, so you know you’re in for an unforgettable evening there.
Make sure you round off every day in Dubai with a special meal. While you can head out and experience the growing gastronomic culture in the city, you would also be richly rewarded for staying put. Four resort restaurants boast incredible international cuisines and stunning settings.
Day 4 – 11
Casuarina Resort & Spa
Swap those bustling city streets for soothing white-sand beaches and Indian Ocean views at Casuarina Resort & Spa.
At this point you can take the day completely at your leisure. Lounge around the two pools, chill on the beach or if you fancy getting a little more active you’ll be happy to learn that the resort boasts a plethora of activities to try. Have a stab at a range of sports from bocce through to golf at the nearby Mont Choisy Le Golf Course. Or take your fun out on to the waves. Water skiing, glass bottomed boat rides and snorkelling are all popular on the azure lagoon.
However, life at Casuarina is designed to be slow. If you want to turn up the serene vibes even further then take the chance to indulge your senses in the Casuarina Spa. Here specialist staff will use time honoured techniques and products to work out all your kinks and leave you feeling weightless.
And now you’re lighter than air, we think it’s a good time to visit the all-inclusive buffet. When it comes to mealtimes at Casuarina the four restaurants have you covered with a wealth of delicious fare. From Creole classics at La Boucanier through to international favourites at Finger’s you’re sure to find your new fave.
