Looking for fun-filled activities for your family and kids before the start of school season? Then take advantage of the final weeks of the annual Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) with luxury staycations on a budget.

More than 80 hotels across Dubai are offering Kids-Go-Free promotion during DSS. This allows up to two children to stay with their parents at no extra cost. Kids can also enjoy complimentary meals and gain unrestricted entry to the children’s club — if offered by the hotel.

Some of the most prestigious hotels, including opulent five-star accommodations such as Atlantis, The Palm Hotel & Resort, are offering world-class hospitality at discounted rates.

According to Dubai Economy and Tourism, “this is the perfect moment to secure a family holiday — whether it be a city or beachfront destination —all while spending a fraction of the usual price.”

Tranquil urban oases

Families can escape right in the heart of the city with complimentary stays and dining experiences for kids at Jumeirah Emirates Tower Hotel or enjoy a tranquil urban oasis at Marriott Hotel Al Jaddaf.

There is also Swissotel AlMurooj Hotel offering resort-inspired luxury or awe-inspiring views offered at Address Sky View Hotel. Those who will book a stay at Address Fountain Views will enjoy Dubai's stunning skyline. Another option are the regal surroundings at The Palace Downtown Dubai Hotel.

Relaxing destinations

For those looking for change of scenery, Le Meridien Dubai Hotel, Pullman City Centre Deira Dubai Hotel and Movenpick - Bur Dubai are recommended.
