Overview
Dubai is a city of superlatives -- home to the world's tallest building (Burj Khalifa), the largest shopping mall (Dubai Mall), and some of the most architecturally stunning hotels on the planet. This futuristic desert metropolis has transformed itself into a global luxury travel hub.
For points travelers, Dubai offers a wide range of options across all major loyalty programs. Hyatt's Park Hyatt Dubai and Grand Hyatt offer solid CPP value, while Marriott and Hilton have massive portfolios across the city from JBR to Downtown and the Palm Jumeirah.
Beyond the glitz, Dubai surprises with its historic Al Fahidi neighborhood, desert safari adventures, and increasingly vibrant food scene influenced by cuisines from around the world. The city serves as an excellent stopover for flights between Asia, Europe, and Africa.
Cash vs Points
Hotels in Dubai range from $28 to $880.6 per night. Points redemptions offer 3.84+ cents per point value.
