Dubai - how may nights

[ListObsessed]

Hi. We're thinking of booking a holiday in Dubai with out two children. If you have been before, would you say that 5 nights would be enough as it is essentially a city break, or would it be better to go for 7 nights?

I have been and 5 is fine, unless you suffer from jet lag and need some extra time to recover.

I have done 8 nights twice. With the distance and time difference, I think you need at least 7. We have mainly used it as a resort holiday and explored the city in the evenings.

Have done 3&4 nights, been great I love it

Just for your info .Dubai can be very expensive but here are some cheaper excursions .

As few as possible. I think it's a horrible place!

5 would be fine! Flight isn't too bad at all.
