“Sheer Bliss”

Reviewed 18 May 2013 NEW

Having gone there in 2005 we were looking forward to seeing how it had changed and to celebrate our Ruby Wedding Anniversary. On arrival, feeling ragged after a night flight as so many of us are, you... More

“Beautiful resort--very peaceful, yet with plenty to do”

Reviewed 17 May 2013 NEW

This was our first visit to Al Maha and I can definitely say it won't be our last--we had an excellent time from the moment we landed at the airport in Dubai when the car service picked us up until we left Al Maha. Our field guide, Gerard, was waiting for us when we arrived and went over everything we... More

Al Maha Desert Resort was the epitome of an oasis in the deserts of the UAE.

Then you arrive at the reception and are immediately greeted... More

As all the other reviewers have stated the Al Maha is just wonderful! We stayed for 3 nights in what can only be described as a state of total luxury.

“Wonderful!”

Al Maha is located just outside of Dubai with the journey taking between 45 mins and an hour depending on where you are traveling to/from. The hotel is located within the nature reserve and this adds to the wonderful experience. Wild deer and the such like are wandering freely around the resort and within the villas. Generally compact, depending upon... More
