Where to stay
Beach resorts with kids' clubs and pools are ideal bases, especially in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah. Many hotels let children stay and eat free.
Big days out
Theme parks, waterparks, aquariums and indoor rainforests deliver blockbuster fun — and being air-conditioned, they're perfect when it's hot outside.
Getting around with kids
Taxis are cheap and car seats can be requested; the Dubai Metro has a dedicated family carriage. Distances are short, so days out rarely involve long journeys.
