HAPPY GLAMPERS

Where to go camping in style, from bubble tents to airstream trailers in the UAE

We’re heading into seven months of glorious weather, so naturally we’re thinking about all the brilliant things we can do outdoors. From retro trailers to rustic beach huts, we’ve rounded up some of the top places to go glamping in the UAE.

SEDR TRAILER RESORT

Hatta

Fancy calling one of these cool Airstreams at the Sedr Trailer Resort home for the weekend? Each trailer is fitted with a TV, private bathroom and free toiletries. They also have a lovely terrace with barbecue facilities where you can sit out and enjoy the mountain views. This UAE glamping hotspot is a perfect location for a morning hike or cycle, too, and the Hatta reservoir is only minutes away. These retro vans book up months in advance, but a quick glance at the calendar shows some midweek availability in November and the odd weekend in December.

Hatta, Hatta Road, Dubai, open daily during winter season, from Dhs716 per night. visithatta.com

DAMANI LODGES

Hatta

Put yourself in the heart of the action with a stay in one of these cosy huts overlooking the Hatta Wadi Hub, with expansive decks to take in the view. They feature modern bathrooms and can sleep up to two adults and two children.
