Measuring 260 square kilometres, it’s the smallest emirate and is far less blingy than nearby Dubai – even though only 40 kilometres separates them. Although tourism is a relatively new concept (the country only started promoting its treasures in 2012), this is a place where sun-seekers can fully switch off while still enjoying a taste of local life and Emirati traditions – all within a seven-hour flight from the UK. (Once you land at Dubai International Airport, it’s just a 30-40 minute car ride.)
In general, Ajman is also far less conservative than other emirates. While alcohol is illegal in neighbouring Sharjah, for example, here it’s more easily available. Several restaurants and resorts stock liqueurs, and residents from Dubai often come here to purchase wine without the need for a licence.
One of the area’s leading resorts is the five-star Ajman Saray, located alongside the Corniche, a four-kilometre esplanade overlooking the Persian Gulf. Two pools (one dotted with mini Jacuzzi jets) are just steps from the ocean, and friendly service means you barely need to lift a finger – unless it’s to tap buttons on the high-tech sun-loungers, alerting bar staff to your cocktail needs.
There are three restaurants to choose from, along with an award-winning spa, where treatment rooms benefit from soothing sea views through floor-to-ceiling windows.
The luxurious gold, teal and purple bedrooms have private balconies and en-suites decorated decadently with marble, and some even have views of the Gulf beyond.
Leaving the comfort of your resort is tricky, but there’s a great deal to discover. These are a few of the activities which, despite its diminutive size, set Ajman apart from better-known, showy emirates.
