Default Short term remote work visa for Dubai

We're looking to visit family who live in Dubai over winter. To be able to take advantage and stay longer we'd need to work remotely. I can see there is a 12 month visa option for $611 we can apply for on Visit Dubai but we only plan on 3 weeks of 4 days weeks. Has anyone had any experience of this or know of a short term work visa we can apply for?
Or even if we actually need a visa for such a short time

3 weeks and 4 days. The 4 days make it a working holiday.

More helpfully to the OP, he gets 30 days in arrival so he has nothing to worry about.
