Four UAE staycations to try this week

Need a trip?

Wyndham Dubai Marina
What’s better than a lazy weekend brunch? Making a staycation out of it, that’s what – and Wyndham Dubai Marina has launched just the package.
Brunch ’n’ Stay offers a stay for two along with a choice of one of three brunches at The Blacksmith Smokehouse – all for Dhs599.

Staycationers can kick off the weekend with the Thursday night brunch from 7pm until 11pm. The brunch boasts a three-course feast with platters of smoked brisket, turkey and lamb ribs. But if you’re not up for a Thursday brunch, why opt for a Friday fiesta instead?

Taking place every Friday from 1pm until 5pm and 7pm until 11pm, the Alamo BBQ brunch takes inspiration from Texas and includes a three-course menu of barbecue dishes. Then you have the rest of the weekend free to relax. Lovely.
Dhs599. Until Sat Dec 28. Thu 7pm-11pm; Fri 1pm-5pm, 7pm-11pm Wyndham Dubai Marina, Dubai Marina (04 407 8873).
