According to Mintel reports, the short-breaks industry is now worth over £2bn, having tripled over the last decade from £600m, and one in ten UK adults has been on a short-break holiday in the past 12 months. Dubai has capitalised on this growing market, boasting a range of pioneering new developments for the city-break traveller to enjoy.
The UAE market has posted an outstanding 46 per cent growth in 2007 to reach an estimated 8,540 short-breaks, with Dubai emerging as the luxury R&R (Rest and relaxation) and shopping break destination of choice.
According to Ian Scott, Director of the UK and Ireland representative office of Dubais Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM), Dubai is becoming the short-break destination of choice, particularly for couples seeking an alternative to more traditional destinations such as New York and Paris. Offering a fusion of the old and the new, Dubai caters to all tastes boasting excellent luxury hotels, fantastic world-class facilities, the ultimate shopping experience, fine dining at internationally-renowned restaurants and sensual spa treatments, all set to a stunning backdrop of breathtaking desert landscapes, azure waters and pristine beaches.

Shopping in Dubai is phenomenal and a major attraction for short-break visitors. With leading designer brands and tax-free economy, Dubai is a shoppers paradise with some 50 plus shopping malls, including the Dubai Mall which is set to be the world's largest shopping, lifestyle and entertainment destination.
Furthermore, the emirate has created a range of events to celebrate its shopping excellence. Dubai Summer Surprises and Dubai Shopping Festival play host to a variety of activities.
When the shopping is done, the best way to unwind and get some well-deserved R&R is at one of Dubai's numerous spas. Dubai's spa industry is growing rapidly and is of huge appeal to short-break travelers. At the end of a busy day, short-break travelers can replenish at some of the world's finest gourmet dining establishments.
Dubai offers a diverse and vibrant night life as well with a selection of licensed late-night bars and clubs
