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.
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.

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.
