• Strong visitor demand highlights Hatta’s growing appeal as the go-to destination for outdoor and experiential tourism in Dubai

Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Hatta Resorts by Dubai Holding has concluded its eighth season, marking another milestone for the outdoor hospitality and glamping destination. The season reaffirmed Hatta’s position as one of Dubai’s most distinctive nature-led destinations.

Operating during the cooler months, from September 2025 to April 2026, the destination welcomed a diverse mix of local, regional and international visitors seeking an alternative to the city pace and drawn to Hatta’s unique offering – an accessible mountain escape that combines outdoor adventure, cultural heritage and immersive nature-based experiences set against the backdrop of the Hajar Mountains.

From scenic hikes and mountain biking trails to kayaking and paddleboarding at Hatta Dam, alongside heritage and cultural attractions, Hatta Resorts and its Wadi Hub offer an experience rooted in authenticity that appeals to a range of age groups and traveller profiles. Accommodation options during the season included the Domes – contemporary glamping units, Caravans set within a dedicated caravan park, Damani Lodges nestled in the mountains and traditional camping zones.

The season recorded its highest visitation to date, reflecting a growing preference for seasonal escapes and immersive outdoor experiences, enabling visitors to disconnect from the city and engage more meaningfully with nature.

Roudi Soubra, Vice President of Asset Management at Dubai Holding said: “This season’s success reinforces Hatta’s position as a destination of choice for local and international visitors. We are seeing a clear shift in traveller preferences towards more sustainable, authentic and experience-led tourism. Visitors seek space for adventure, as well as opportunities to slow down, recharge and reconnect with nature. As we look ahead, we remain committed to curating distinctive experiences that enhance the guest experience while preserving the natural and cultural character that defines Hatta.”

Following the close of the season, Hatta Resorts and its Wadi Hub will now pause for the summer months, in line with its seasonal model, allowing the destination to focus on enhancements and the introduction of new concepts ahead of the next season.
