Jumeirah's first hotel in UAE capital Abu Dhabi


What a place, no words to explain it, just go and visit or book a room and see for yourself.

Indeed Jumeirah at Etihad Towers, is part of a new iconic, a unique  five-towers complex in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE. I just visited with my wife at Rose water restaurant for A Saturday morning breakfast.  It was a unique experience, though we visited most of the 5 stars hotels in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, but this is just a restaurant located within the ground floor of the hotel that really stand out. 

Rosewater restaurant is the fabulous buffet restaurant with outdoor terrace seating overlook the sea, also offers diners a fine selection of tasty international cuisine with live cooking stations located throughout the this fantastic venue.

Dubai: City of Gold



DUBAI CITY OF GOLD
Dubai is known as the 'City of Gold' and for good reason. The fastest growing gold business centre in the world, Dubai imports on more than 400 tons of gold yearly from Asia, far East and from all the major gold world market.

Inside Dubai Mall, the gold souk Area.

Dubai's gold quality and designs are famous, which are very impressive in different varieties of stylish designs to select from. The major contributor for Dubai to be successful in gold industry is free trade zone facilities, so there is not much taxes or customs duties are charged and that makes Dubai the best city to buy, trade gold and other jewelery .


"Trade in the gold souk grew during the 1940s due to Dubai's free trade policies which encouraged entrepreneurs from India and Iran to set up stores in the souk.  Despite a general slump in the global gold market." WikiPedia.  Therefore, Dubai has a long history in Gold trade even before the oil boom and tourism sector.  It become the major trade route  for many goods including gold in the19th century. Dubai port played major role in this business. 


The first ever gold souk in Dubai started in Deira near the main bus terminal right after the Shindagha tunnel on the right side. After renovation the Dubai's famous Gold Souk in Deira side is one of the largest gold retail shops line up in the world.  It is believed to be started around early 1900's with just few iron smiths and Gold retailers. Then after the free trade free zone came into effect in around 1940's and 50's, more Gold smiths, gold retailers and business itself boom. As results, many shops opened at the same area, so that time Dubai government decided to make official "souk" which is Arabic word and in English means "market", at that time wooden covered and design were build around the souk to give even more souk feelings and texture. 


Since then, more and more shops were open and rapid expansion of Gold Souk in Dubai in together with Oil boom,  more expansion of Gold Souk took place in different years since 70s. Gold shops grew from 50 retails shops to more than 300 retailers and wholesaler; all these shops are just accommodated in L shape are and surroundings areas. Shops renovated and regularly updated to meet international standards and not to loose Arabic culture Souk designs. On each narrow alleys of the souk there shops and on top covered by wooden roof with big fans to cool down visitors and workers who constantly moving around. These wooden designs keep the spirit which resemble of old Arabian souk streets. 


Safety and Security:
Each shop equipped with latest security systems including cams. These security systems are connected directly with Dubai Police. Mind you there non uniforms police patrols scattered around the Gold Souk. Anyone try to sell Gold, a security officer will be called to confirm the identity of the seller. Security in these areas are excellent. 


Other Gold Souks:
Well, you can find almost same design of Souk in Bur Dubai side, the other side of the creek, with gold shops line up.  Other in Karama, Satwa and in shopping malls.  Most of the Gold shops you will noticed are line up close to each other.


Gold and Diamond Park:
In recent times, you can say the advanced Dubai Souk came up and more new gold shopping souks were built such as Gold and Diamond Park along the Sheikh Zayed Road and others in different areas around Dubai.


Gold and Diamond Park add more texture to Dubai to be truly city of Gold. Dubai reputation in Gold & jewelery is becoming even more strong among the visitors, residence and tourists.   The park area is huge and accommodate different facilities in Gold and jewelry business. Also act as Free Zone, duty free zone and including 100% foreign ownership. So the Gold and Diamond Park is a competitive place for shoppers and best place for manufacturers and retailers. Fully backed up by the government, with 24-hour security.  

All facilities are available for Gold craftsmen to perform their work. Also the location is centrally located right in the business center of Dubai. The park only offer the highest standard quality of gold and diamonds, also visitors have opportunity to learn more about gold and how the designs are made.

UAE Summer Short Vacation: From the advanced cool city of skyscrapers to the beautiful mountainous landscape and beaches.

Summer short vacation in United Arab Emirates - UAE is best choice for both residence and tourist alike from international or just nearby countries, as UAE offer more in choices of places and accommodation in the region. Visitors visiting any of the emirates - Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman or Um Al Quwain, can be assured that one will not run short of interesting places to visit or to stay.



The country is peaceful and safe, if at night or day light, necessary facilities available both on the main roads and in the cities. Travelling by road between each Emirate mentioned above is easy to navigate around as road networks are well constructed even around the mountains areas on the way to Fujairah or Ras Al Khaimah. Petrol pump / stations are located in such a way none of the road travelers will run out of the petrol, facilities including, grocery shops and restrooms.

Shark round about in Khorfakan, from Dibba.

I would like to share my four days trip by road with family started from Dubai to Fujairah and Ras Al khaimah and back to Dubai. I work and live in the UAE. One of the reason, to make this rip is that, I did not plan to travel outside of UAE this year for vacation for several reasons and second, Summer promotions and special offers from 5 stars to 3 stars hotels right here in the UAE. The one which grab my attention was Rotana hotels.

Therefore, for this particular trip our accommodation of two rooms in Fujairah and Ras Al Khamaih was Rotana Fujairah and Spa one night and in Ras Al Khaimah was Rotana Cove Resort two nights. Please note that I do not associate with Rotana group of hotels or work with the organization. Reviews and comments on these hotels are as guest from the hotel and from my personal views.

I would like to suggest having a Navigator in your vehicle; it will be much easier to reach your destination. As for me, I had Navigator and also not first time traveling to Fujairah and Khorfakan. Ok let say you starts travelling from Dubai, you should take Emirates road to Sharjah, then you should take Sharjah airport road then straight to Dhaid road, follow the signboard mentioned “Dhaid”. 

When you reach city of Dhaid, there two main roundabouts from the first one, turn to the left straight to another round about from this one tale right. From here the road is level straight for about more than 6km before entering down hills road. You will enter a small city just follow Masafi /Fujairah on the sign boards. Here you will huge round about which clearly indicated right turn is to Fujairah and taking left turn is to Masafi.

The Easier way is to take to Masafi, you can also reach if you take to Fujairah but then you will cover more distance and also you have to pass through outskirt of Fujairah city and to enter the middle of Khorfakan city, which can be confusing before reaching Fujairah Rotana & Spa or Le Meridien Al Aqa Beach resort both are nearby to each other.

When taking Masafi road, it will take upto to Dhaid Al Hisn city before reaching the road along the shores of UAE. Then the road it will take you along the Dhadna mountain and as soon as drive down to the first round about (Shark R/A as seen in the pic above) you will be already reaching the hotel. From the same R/A also you can enter to the Le Meridien Al Aqa Beach resort. The name Al Aqah is came from the nearby mountain which is known by the same name.

Please try to explore below Google map click + or – to zoom in and out and try to find out location of Masafi where you can find clearly the road divided either to the right – Fujairah or left to Masafi.
(Click - minus zoom out to get the map clear)

For me it was first time taking the Masafi road to the hotel. We reached the hotel at around 4:30pm and we got two room interconnected so that we can be nearby with our children. Fujairah Rotana Resort and Spa Al Aqah Beach hotel is very nice with friendly staff. We got the room on the second floor; the rate we got was including breakfast. Kids love swimming pool so we did enjoy swimming with kids up to to the sunset. It is very relaxing atmosphere from the rush and pressure of the big city and work.




Later we drive to Khorfakan city which is about 25 minutes drive from the hotel to visit our relatives. Next morning, as usual I go to the gym and sauna. They had nice gym with a medium size sauna. Swimming pool is large and for both children and adults. We had our breakfast at the restaurant on the ground floor. The food was good although no much choices to choose from. The service is excellent and we did check out next day on Tuesday at around 1:30pm. We did ask for the late check out and it was acceptable upto 2:00pm since there was no much rush. You will find photos by Visiting Dubai Travel UAE Guide.com!.


Left hotel and on our way to Ras Al Khaimah, same road from Dhaid to Masafi, but then you will not reach Masafi there will clearly turn right road and indicated Ras Al Khaimah. This road is under repair on the side of the mountains to prevent falling rocks. Good job is done there. The road is passing through three mountains, Mubrahah, Ruwaydah and Satif . Always take precautions and drive safely and watch speed limits.

The road will take to the Ras Al Khaimah Airport road. You will be entering into the city and I suggest asking or taking the road to Sharjah from the city of Ras Al Khaimah. I know a bit about Ras Al Khamiah as I participated three times on their yearly Half Marathon. And also selected next year 2010 to host American Cup for sailing competition. Ras Al Khaimah will be come more famous and another tourist attraction from UAE.

The Cove Rotana resort: I think is the new kind of concept of hotel accommodation, build on hills and room are town houses ground and first floor, downhill to the beach more accommodation available as villa not rooms. Mini buses and buggy vehicle carts are available to transport guests from their room to anywhere they like to go within this kind of mountain village. I really like it here; we stay with family for two days. But unfortunately there are no connecting rooms, so our children stayed in another “cove” that’s the only I think not good for family; or if budget allowed one can book for villa.

The health club and sauna is great, much bigger than that of Fujairah, also they have two large swimming pools, one located down the hill and another above near the main reception building. Gym and kid club playing area. I think if you will see the photos you will understand what I mean about how the rooms and street like locations of the property – Cove Rotana resort. Restaurants located also not far from the each other. All Day Dining Cinnabon restaurant serve buffet for from breakfast, lunch and dinner. The day we went to dine was a seafood day. It was excellent sea food ever with lots of choices to select and tasted great. I did not like much the rooms and location of TV. All staff were very friendly. Our two days we stayed felt went so fast. In between we did visit the city of Ras Al khaimah to the only mall Al Manara.

Short vacations in UAE can be enjoyable and also taking into consideration of lots of Summer hotel offer, since it is a low season it is a advantage for residents and visitors from nearby country to enjoy the summer in UAE.
