As we wave goodbye to the Eid festivities and face the reality of returning to our daily routines, the post-holiday blues can hit hard. But who says the fun has to stop? Dubai, with its endless options for relaxation, dining, and adventure, provides the perfect backdrop to keep the festive spirit alive even after the holidays. Here are some exciting activities to make the transition smoother.
Book a Spa Day
After the hustle and bustle of the holiday, treat yourself to a spa day. Dubai is home to world-class spas like the Talise Ottoman Spa at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray or the Armani Spa in the Armani Hotel. Indulge in a massage, a body wrap, or a rejuvenating facial. It’s a perfect way to relax and mentally prepare to get back into your work groove.
Plan Your Next Weekend
Consider a staycation at one of Dubai’s luxurious hotels like the Atlantis, The Palm, where you can enjoy their water park, aquarium, and fine dining options. Planning something enjoyable for the weekend can give you something to look forward to during the workweek.
Dine Out
Dubai’s culinary scene is vibrant and diverse, offering everything from street food to high-end dining experiences. Why not book a table at Pierchic for seafood and stunning views, or explore the flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine at Al Hadheerah? Dining out can be a delightful way to break up the routine of cooking at home and spice up your evenings.
Join Fitness Classes
If you indulged over the holidays, joining a fitness class could be a great way to get back in shape. Dubai offers a variety of fitness options, from yoga classes at the beach to high-energy cycling sessions at a studio like Crank. Exercise not only improves your physical health but also boosts your mood and energy levels.
Volunteer for a Cause
Sometimes, helping others can lift our spirits the most. Consider volunteering for organisations like Dubai Cares or the Emirates Red Crescent. Engaging in community service can provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment that extends beyond the holiday season.
