Ha! Sounds like they need to work on their PR campaign!

Haven't ever heard of a nude pool.

Nude beach, yes. Nude pool, no.

I think they get their fair share of tourists without the "come over and drink as much as you like" PR campaign but I do see where you're coming from. Dubai being a dry state is a HUGE misconception.

You seem to be biased. Dubai is not an interesting place for holidays (beach or whatever). The only interesting thing to see is how they built huge city in such a short time. Other than that there is nothing else to see.
I think there is huge misconception of Dubai in people's eyes.

Dubai's tourist areas are far different than the entire country. The entire country is very different than what you are thinking about in Iran or Saudi Arabia.

You missed this.

Yesterday the Guinness Book of Records named the vast pool beside the sea in Chile as the biggest in the world.

But if you fancy splashing out on one of your own ? and you have the space to accommodate it ? then beware: This one took five years to build, cost nearly £1billion and the annual maintenance bill will be £2million.

Didn't think Chile had the kind of tourist market to support that. Weren't there riots there recently?

I don't see it featuring on a lot of holiday lists.
