Saw a low-priced staycation venue with high-quality amenities, stunning views, and a feel of quiet luxury? Don't jump to book just yet. Authorities in Dubai have warned of fake staycation and getaway offers. Such scammers may use visuals of what seems to be elegant hotels or beach chalets to lure potential victims. While you may be looking to surprise your loved ones with a well-deserved break, they might get a different kind of surprise if you show up to the location only to realise that no such venue exists.
