Two questions....

Marjan Island - is it a just a fancy beach resort, that happens to be in the UAE?


Is visiting in July or August a really bad idea in terms of temperatures?

If you enjoy sitting inside then it’ll be perfect, outside it depends if you enjoy daytime temperatures of 44’ and 31’ at night.

It's not fancy in the least.

I only know the Hilton there. If the holiday is a bargain and 'next to nothing' so to speak, then i would go for it. That said, it is a long way to go for a holiday that will require a lot of thought and time management...pool early doors, back inside, maybe back to pool at 17.00 for an hour or two, back to room, shower then late dinner.

Isn't there anywhere closer to consider??? How about a similar holiday in Malta? Or Cyprus?
