Jumeirah's GCC Breaks offer, timed around Eid Al Adha, is built around exactly that idea. Nine properties across the UAE and Oman are included, ranging from the beachfront sweep of Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab and Jumeirah Beach Hotel to quieter addresses like Jumeirah Saadiyat Island and Jumeirah Muscat Bay across the border.
The package comes with exclusive discounted rates for GCC residents and is designed with families in mind.
Children up to 12 eat free when a meal plan is included, kids' clubs and family programming come as standard, and non-motorised watersports are complimentary at selected resorts. Daily breakfast is included, with the option to add lunch or dinner. Access to Talise Spa and Talise Fitness is available at selected properties for those who want the holiday to feel restorative as much as social.
For anyone who has spent Eid at home before and quietly wished they hadn't, the range of properties means there is something regardless of whether you want a beach, a marina or something more low-key.
Rates are subject to a 10% service charge, 7% municipality fee, AED 20 tourism dirham fee per bedroom per night, and 5% VAT. Full details at jumeirah.com.
