TAILOR MADE ITINERARIES

Dubai is perfect location from which to extend your holiday and, if you are travelling onwards after the excitement of the racing at Dubai's new billion-dollar racecourse, below are a few suggestions of itineraries:

Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay, Oman - just a 90-minute drive from Dubai, this all-villa luxury resort sits on Oman's northern Musandam Peninsula with a long sandy beach to the front and the dramatic Hajar Mountains to the rear.

Arrive by car, speedboat or even paraglider, and enjoy every conceivable extravagance within the traditional Omani styling of the buildings. Facilities include a Six Senses Spa, fabulous pools, a choice of a hilltop or seafront restaurants, an excellent wine cellar and dhow cruises.

The Maldives - this group of over one thousand islands is a mere 4-hours flying time from Dubai and is home to some of the best dive sites and beaches in the World! For a "Robinson Crusoe" experience in pure luxury, stay in the far north of the archipelago at Island Hideaway!

This beautiful location, renowned for having some of the very best diving in the Maldives, has just 43 villas, suites and palaces and an attitude to service of "whatever you want, whenever you want it". With only five per cent of the island being built on, this Small Luxury Hotel of the World offers excellent facilities and first class privacy.

Mauritius - this cosmopolitan island has a huge British following. The island is home to the Mauritius Turf Club and the Champ de Mars racetrack. Racing is during the summer months (April to December), however, there are plenty of other activities on the island to keep you entertained and, of course, there are all the beautiful beaches on which to relax. Flights from Dubai take just 6½ hours and the range of facilities offered at Constance Le Prince Maurice is impressive.

The various restaurants serve both Mauritian influenced and international cuisine while the Laguna Bar overlooks the beach. There are two floodlit tennis courts, a squash court, gym, spa, practice putting green, a huge variety of water sports and two 18-hole Golf courses!

Seychelles - one of the most romantic and stunningly beautiful destinations in the world is only 4½ hours from Dubai. The Seychelles are composed of 115 coral and granite islands and the following itinerary gives an example of some of the best properties found in this archipelago... stay two nights at Maia Resort & Spa, an all-villa resort where, throughout your stay, you are spoilt by your own private butler.

Continue to Constance Lemuria for a two-night stay where the excellent facilities include golf, tennis and a spa.

 

Finally, get back to nature with a three-night stay on Denis Island, a peaceful escape on a private island with superb sunsets, excellent snorkelling and deep-sea fishing and only one TV on the whole island!
