The UAE winter is here, and the cooler climes provide an opportunity to explore the magnificent deserts of the Emirates and explore its other-worldly landscapes.
While camping may be one of the most popular outdoor activities during winter, not everyone has the appetite to haul everything in their car and set out to a campsite. For those who want to experience the gorgeous golden dunes and yet prefer to sleep in crips, fresh-smelling sheets, there's glamping (or glam camping).
As part of the World's Coolest Winter campaign, the UAE Government Media Office has put together a list of 10 top glamping spots in the UAE.
The Sedr Trailers Resort, situated near the Hatta Dam, is the city's first-ever "trailer hotel" that provides an adventurous camping experience.
The resort offers standard facilities like Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a TV, and access to the Sedr Bites Food Truck (onsite) and the Hatta Kayak (onsite).
This camp offers campers a luxurious starlit dinner and live entertainment.
If you want to move away from the hustle and bustle of the city, Sonara is a place for families to enjoy the weather in a cosy atmosphere. The camp also hosts sandboarding, stargazing, archery, fireworks displays, and more.
This resort is nestled among the Hatta mountains, overlooking the Hatta Wadi Hub activity park. Each unit has a private balcony that treats families to a spectacular view.
The resort is also well-connected with its natural surroundings, offering campers the opportunity to explore numerous trails.

Situated at the base of the Jebel Hafit mountain (Abu Dhabi's tallest peak), visitors hike or use mountain bikes, horses or camels to explore the mountain.
The Retreat Palm Dubai, situated in the East Crescent of The Palm Jumeirah, is the emirate's first 5-star family-friendly resort that establishes an important link between 360-degree holistic wellness and the refined, vibrant energy of Dubai.
